Safety is an essential part of an action-adventure with your friends and family. Empower Adventures in Tampa, Florida, is one of the multiple amusement parks located in Florida for individuals of all ages. Fun in the sun and safety are our top priorities. When it comes to zip lining, passengers are lifted over 200 feet in the air, moving at 30 to 40 miles an hour; that’s fast and nerve-wracking for first-timers; but as we said, safety and passenger well-being always comes first. Today’s blog by Empower Adventures Tampa Bay discusses our safety protocols to ensure your high-flying adventure leaves you wanting more.

How We Reduce Risk and Equipment Failure
According to the ACCT Federal Zipline Standards, our zip lines are inspected daily by our engineers and certified tour guides. The zip lines are tested and evaluated repeatedly before a guest’s arrival to ensure they are up to code and function correctly. Equipment failure is rare due to the quality of our gear. We maintain safety protocols by examining our tools for any tears or rips in our harnesses, helmet defects, broken pieces in our lanyards and trolleys, and of course, a quick safety video beforehand to prepare our guests for their adventure. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, our gear is immediately separated, thoroughly sanitized with a cleaning solution, and left to dry for 72 hours before reuse.
