Free Fall Devices
Common Questions
Looking for a little extra help?
Our free-fall devices use the same patented magnetic braking technology found in high-speed trains and roller coasters, offering friction-free, reliable, and smooth catches. This technology eliminates the need for brake pads, reducing wear and minimizing maintenance.
Unlike traditional free-fall systems that can create a harsh, jarring stop, the QuickFlight features a self-regulating braking system that ensures a soft and consistent catch for riders across a wider weight range. This not only makes the experience safer and more enjoyable for a broader audience but also enhances rider satisfaction, leading to more repeat customers.
Each device undergoes rigorous third-party testing by an ISO 17025 accredited lab, guaranteeing top safety and performance. The result is an extended device lifespan, making our free-fall systems the safest and most durable on the market.
Free fall devices are life safety devices, and annual service inspections are crucial to maintaining safety standards and ensuring your device warranty remains valid. Lives are quite literally on the line!
Each service includes a comprehensive inspection, repairs or replacements of worn parts (including webbing), cleaning, and testing across a full range of weights to ensure optimal performance.
QuickFlight and Flightline devices require service inspections 15 months after the manufacturing date and every 12 months thereafter to ensure a high standard of performance and safety, as well as warranty.
QuickFlight uses a unique self-regulating braking system that ensures smooth, consistent catches for a much wider weight range of riders.
Unlike other free fall devices, which can create a jarring stop that limits who can safely use your ending attraction, QuickFlight provides a more comfortable experience for everyone. This not only opens up the activity to more people but also leads to a more fun experience that keeps customers coming back.
QuickFlight and FlightLine devices fit a wide range of heights and structures, including pre-existing structures! We make it simple to install a FlightLine to your tower, bridge, and ledge. For more info, check out our Flight series selection guide.
