Sponge4God Posted June 7, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I saw that you must be 48 inches tall to zip line, my grandson is 49 inches and he is growing like a weed. We don't sail till Oct and am expecting him to be 50 inches by then. So that requirement is not an issue, but he is only 5 now and will turn 6 when we are on the cruise. Is there any age restrictions for this? Sent from my SM-J727VPP using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted June 8, 2018 #2 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I thought there was a minimum weight limit of 75lbs. Can anyone confirm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richst48 Posted June 8, 2018 #4 Share Posted June 8, 2018 If I remember correctly the only weight restriction is a maximum of 275 lbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVHillbilly Posted June 8, 2018 #5 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Yes there is a minimum 75 lbs weight required. I just did this ride last month, not sure I know a 5-6 year old would be allowed to ride this. You must be able to hold on for the duration and there is a good jolt at the end. The biggest problem would be him not following directions and not having the momentum to make it all the way down. The speed half way down is pretty slow, but once you hit the midway point the speed increases rapidly.

Oh well, maybe next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbiejean Posted June 11, 2018 #7 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Just did the zip line on May. Had 1 30 time. Would try to book earlier and go back to ship for lunch and then beach on the afternoon. Would do again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vpat48 Posted June 12, 2018 #8 Share Posted June 12, 2018 That’s what I figured. My 9yo is 7lb shy of that limit. Oh well, maybe next time. ' We were in Labadee 2 weeks ago and my 7 year old nephew really wanted to this. He was only 73 and was losing pounds before the cruise because he does a lot of swimming classes. So we had to cancel his reservation. We did ask on the island and they said they will weigh the kids and are strict about the 75 lb limit. Even the zip line on the Oasis had a 75 lb limit and it was strictly enforced. He wants to do another cruise just for the zip line now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
