Wear breathable layers that you can easily move around in. Long shorts, trousers, leggings, or capri pants will give you some padding against the harness and make the ride more comfortable. Opt for close-toed shoes, like hiking boots or sneakers &#8212; flip-flops and sandals are a no-no on many zip lines since they\u2019re prone to falling off in the air.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<h4><b>How many cables does the Zipline have?<\/b><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zipline has 4 different cables:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>1st <\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cable with 300 meters long, it is very smooth.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>2nd<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> cable travels at a slightly higher velocity, with 350 meters long.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>3rd<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> cable is the longest.
