Skycoaster

Notable facts
Bill Kitchen took his first skydive in 1990. He wanted other people to be able to have the same experience without having to jump from an airplane.
The first Skycoaster ride opened in 1993; since then, Skycoaster, Inc. has opened more than 108 rides, all around the world.
Flight cables are made 5⁄16 inches (7.9 mm) galvanized steel, which supports 9,800 pounds (4,445 kg), or stainless steel, which supports 9,000 pounds (4,080 kg). However, the maximum weight for a flight is 850 pounds (386 kg), mainly due to the winch.
