Zipline at Davao!

When I created my 30before30 list, Davao's zipline was then the longest zipline in Asia (or so I thought!). Now a few months later, it is just on the third spot. But I didn't care, it was included in my list and I had the chance to scratch it off on our last day in Davao.

There are two ziplines in Outland Adventure. Though it wasn't the longest anymore,  the Xcelerator zipline is now considered the fastest in Asia.. 700m in less than 30s! And the Repentor zipline boasts off its scream factor at 400ft above sea level. 
Wearing my safety harness :)

I've no fear with heights so there wasn't any "scream factor" for me at all. But I liked that it was fast, felt like flying at Darna speed.. :)

Here's a video taken by Dimples (she's my original "babes") as I take my first zip..




And here's the video I took..





For the second zipline, I opted the superman style!

    So the video won't play here in the office, good thing you also posted some pictures.

    Zipline is also in my bucket list so yeah I'm jealous 'cause you got to try it already. So that zipline is the fastest in Asia? Really cool!
