The ZipRider at the Snowbird Ski and Summer Resort was built during the summer of 2004 and opened up mid-August 2004. Customers first climb up to the top of the 50 foot tower shown to the left, then launch out the doors to fly down the cables at 30 mph, landing on the newly expanded Tram building deck. The ZipRider has been very successful at Snowbird, and it is not uncommon for the line to extend all the way down to the ground on weekends. To see riders in action click the VIDEO tab below.
