Or, you could get the crap shot out of you while you hang helplessly 50ft off the ground because you zip line screwed up. Not to mention it could just snap.

It would be a good idea as long as there was a person operating it that knew what he was doing and everything was safe. I would definately try it as long as it was working properly.

That would be fun. I would reccomend though, having a cart or something to sit in. That way you don't have to hold on to anything and it gives you protection as you fly by.

Except stupid people can hurt themselves but tight nonetheless. I do think that they should make a complex field were to get to the best spots your required to be able to jump and climb. So if someone could get up the wall they could have the higher ground advantage or maybee have the flag up really high

it can be done but i wouldent zip line towards the enemy that would be suicide, i would do it to evade or just to get out of a tower or a high point by using a lanyard connected to a belt or rappelling harness heres a link http://www.pentagondefense.com/blacsaflan.html this way your hands are free and u could shoot at the apponent then quickly diconnect and drop to the ground then proceed.

Good idea, Just find a place to hang it from where its effective alot, and pray that you dont get lit-up while your using it.

If you define cowardice as running away at the first sign of danger, screaming and tripping and begging for mercy, then yes, Mr. Brave man, I guess I'm a coward.

youve been playing too much battlefield 2. hah umm it wouldn't be safe or covered by insurance. plus when would you use it? zip lines require gravity it comes from elevation you would need a clear, high spot to come down from that has no braches along the way. (if you remember george of the jungle)
