The most flexible ride system.

Switchback® is the only experience in the world that offers the advantages of rollercoasters AND ziplines.

Cable spans give patrons the feeling of flying through the air, and rail sections add the creativity of corners, drops, twists, and helixes.

Switchback® helps you get the best from your iconic site. Unlock potential by installing an experience that:

• Highlights your unique location (fly over your waterfall, through your cave).
• Makes the most of your space (connecting areas, unused airspace).
• Grows your demographic.
• Delights your patrons.

Entertain people in a new exciting way. Our flexible ride layouts and design features allow you to create experiences that were previously impossible!

Amplify your brand with customized theming. Your patrons will feel like they’re flying on a dragon, cruising through space, engaged in intergalactic dogfights, driving a Formula 1 car – the possibilities are endless.

Switchback® is developed by Holmes Solutions, a global leader in innovative engineering trusted by NASA, 3M, Google, and many others.

Ziptrek Technologies is the global licensee of Switchback. Their clients include the Olympics, NFL, MLB, and more.
