How a centrifugal brake works

This is how you get to your destination faster with a centrifugal brake ... and decelerate completely at the same time

You don't know yet how a centrifugal brake works?

Here's the complete article with explanation


But now to our vacation secret tip.

If you want to embark on an exciting journey where you soar through the woods free as a bird in tight and wide sweeps, a zip line or fly line is the perfect vacation fun for you.

The latter is, so to speak, the cozy, family-friendly version of a zip line. Here, tracks are laid along a slope, which in the case of a fly-line is made of tubular structures. Sleds are attached to these tubes, which are equipped with centrifugal brakes, so the fly line allows you a safe and controlled descent.


The big difference to a zip line or summer toboggan run is the more leisurely ride and the changed perspective, as you glide a few meters above the ground towards your destination. A great experience that is sure to totally decelerate you.


Have you ever done a fly-line descent?
