Trsmima Heavy Duty Stainless Steel Zipline Spring Brake Extra Long 6.5 FT, Zipline Stopper, Kids Backyard Zip Line Spring Braking System/Stop/Stopper for 3/16 1/4 5/16 3/8 inch Wire

The media could not be loaded. Bought this spring to add to a basic zipline that I bought on Amazon: Hyponix Zipline Kit for Kids and Adults – 100FT, 150FTHighly recommend buying this spring to add to a zipline that came with just one spring. This spring alone as a stop is not enough. If you bought a zipline with no stopper spring I would recommend buying two of these.

I got the zipline from Hearthsong and although the zipline itself was great, the rubber stopper that came with it was horrible. Once you went down the zipline once the stopper would go all the way to the end and the next time you went down the zipline, there was a sudden stop. Huge safety hazard. We had to continually manually move that stopper after each ride to avoid anyone getting hurt. What a pain.Then I got this stopper and it works great. The coil retracts on impact and then extends back to its original length for the next ride. It slows the kids down nicely and no more manual intervention. Now they can play independently.I highly recommend this stopper with any zipline or similar ride device.In the video, you can see the stopper at the end of the ride.

My nephew is 11 years old, the kid is 5'5" and about 120lb. This did not break his fall nearly enough to prevent him from stopping before the end of the break line. I likely should have bought the smaller break given the size of the zipline used. You'll likely need at least two of these to stop your kid(s) from hurting themselves at the end of the zipline.

Works great but bear in mind, if you're really yeeting your child(ren), 6 ft isn't long enough to keep em off the tree the zipline is anchored into. I added a 2 ft length of pvc pipe that i drilled a hole through the cap at each end and and used that to create more distance.**EDIT**. It's worth noting also that i used some massive 3/4 turn buckles that are pretty long. Overall distance from eyebolt to start of the brake has gotta be close to 10 feet. But again, im REALLY sending my kids along this line. I would also highly recommend going to e rigging for BIG drop forged 1 piece all connected eye bolts. We got some basic ones thay we thought would work from home depot but the whole thing yanked em apart

Our zip-line kit did not come with a spring. After the initial install we noticed that the rider would come to an abrupt stop, their bodies would swing pretty high and they'd have to hold on tight or be launched down the hill! It was fun for me but terrifying to think of my kids trying it.I ended up taking it down and ordering this product and was so happy that I did. Not only does it slow my children down it is able to slow down full grown adults and stop them safely. It was super easy to install and has taken repeated trips without showing any wear ot tear. Great product!I would also recommend ordering a seat that attaches to the handlebar. It helps the kids to keep their feet out of underbrush and takes the weight off of their hands.

Added this spring brake to our existing zipline. Totaling 13' of braking on our 100' zipline. Works greats to slow the kids down enough that they aren't getting "bucked" around at the end. Worth the money for safety.

Our zipline kit (from a different manufacturer) came with a piece of thin rubber strap which did almost nothing to slow down small children, much less adults. We needed something to replace it so the zipline wasn't a swinging death trap. This did the trick almost perfectly. Slows the kids down much more gently but still plenty effectively. My only concern is that the band clamps it came with don't tighten down enough that it grips the cable, instead leaving it free to move about the length of the cable. This isn't really an issue in our case, because the brake butts up against the cable ties, which aren't moving. I would feel better if it clamped tightly to the cable, but am not even certain that was the intent based on the scant instructions, which are another minor complaint. For those reasons, I dock one star and give it a solid 4.
