The SlotZilla zip line in downtown Las Vegas has officially opened. The new attraction opened at noon on April 27, 2014.

Four riders depart at once. Lighter riders arrive at the landing platform arrive last. It’s a gravity thing.

The new attraction has two take-off levels, but only the lower level is operating at the moment. The upper level (called a “Zoomline”) is expected to open in a few weeks. (Update: SlotZilla’s upper Zoomline is also open.)

Riders on the lower lines travel seated, while riders on the upper lines will fly prone, or superhero-style.

Zoomline riders will emerge from an opening just under SlotZilla’s simulated reels.

Rides on this new SlotZilla Las Vegas zip line cost $25 for the lower Zipline, $45 for the upper Zoomline. Friday and Saturday after 6:00 p.m. is “primetime” pricing, or $49 for the upper Zoomline. Save $5 on either zipline before 6:00 p.m. (Updated: 12/21/18)

We hate when kids are braver than we are. Upstarts.

SlotZilla’s first day of full operation was sold out, so that bodes well for the success of the new zipline.

The SlotZilla project began in November of 2012. See photos of SlotZilla’s construction.
