One of the world’s fastest, longest and highest zip slides has reopened at Sun City, where guests can zip at an average speed of 120km/h over a distance of two kilometres.

The Zip 2000, designed and constructed by UNREAL CEO, Tim Dawson, has been in operation since 2004 at Sun City, holding several world records for six consecutive years.

‘Flyers’ are secured in two separate harnesses and suspended below a free-running trolley that is attached to a steel cable. Solo and tandem slides are available and guests of all experience levels are welcome.

Unlike many other adventure activities, the zip slide is open to everyone from the age of 12. It has a 100% safety record.
