ABSTRACT:
A diverse variety of high speed gravity cableway rides in which a rider on a pulley block car descends a mountainside and generally stops by frictional forces, due to the design of the cable arc, before hitting the lower cable support point. In some forms, the rider may control his speed with a braking device and use a ski-lift to return to the top of the hill. In all form suitably safe embarking and disembarking platforms or procedures are employed.
