Zip Line

Is anyone planning on checking out the Zip Line? I know it is free but I would imagine the lineups would be ridiculous!

The lineups extended all the way out onto Robson Street. The zipline is between Robson and Smithe St. It seems cool, but like everything else, expect to wait a couple of hours for this one.

thats a long time, unless you are dying to fly across robson square why not spend the 6 hours working (after the olympics) and going to grouse mountain ziplines.

you would also have 6 more hours to spend at other olympic events

I wish they charged money instead of making it free then line ups would be bearable.

I'm going to pass and go to grouse instead lol.

Too bad you can't just sign up for open times. Like you have to sign up, show ID and they give you a time and ticket. When you show up, you have to show your ID again for confirmation/lost tickets. If you're not on time, you're SOL....

I agree.. why in the world would you wait 6 hours for that? I give props to people who actually did wait 6 hours to do it as to me that would be retarded.
