Zip line advertisement

I have been showing some signs around Tamarindo during the last few days, so I thought I would add this three dimensional advertisement.  What is the product?  Zip line excursions.  What better way to advertise zip lines than to string up a mannequin of  a person hanging from a zip line.  There is a sign hanging from his back side that advertises the zip lines.  

I have shown photos of real people on zip lines in the past, and will do so again in a couple of weeks.  I have been impressed with the safety of Costa Rican zip lines, as they use two cable connections.  I think it is also a good reflection on their safety consciousness that even this mannequin is required to wear a helmet.

This photo is at Witch's Rock Surf Camp, which is a popular spot for surfing lessions and other activities enjoyed by adventure seekers, such as nearby zip lines through the forest.

    This advertisment won't tempt me to do this again. Once was enough! However, I am glad I tried it.

    Brattcat,

    We have done zip lines several times. On August 17, 18 and 19, 2009, I posted photos of my wife's first zip line experience. It is fun and exhilarating. I will be showing some more zip line photos in a couple of weeks.

    Very effective advertisement, I think.

    I've only tried a zip line once and I loved it! What a rush! I would love to do it again :)
