Riding the Zipline over Robson Street

Posted on11 February 2010. Tags: fun, robson, zipline

This morning I had a chance to be one of the first to ride the new Zipline that goes over Robson Street.

Needless to say, it was amazing!

Thanks to ZipTrek EcoTours for putting this on. It opens to the general public FOR FREE on Friday, February 12th. You can watch people ride it on their webcam.

Update: I’ve added another video I shot as well as some photos from the Zipline

So. Much. Fun!

The zipline is free to ride…you’ll just need to get there early and line up.
