My husband and I decided to try zip-lining for the first time while in Durango, Co during our Fall Break vacation. We researched a couple options in the area and decided to go with Full Blast as the prices seemed more reasonable than the competition. Our experience from the start was wonderful. Terri was a delight when helping us with our reservation and check-in, being both friendly and informative. We were quickly introduced to our guides, Dave and James, both who wore genuine smiles and made you feel comfortable immediately. After gearing up and getting a tutorial, we started up the hill. Despite the fact that Dave and James have made this climb repeatedly, they were quick to call for a break to allow us to catch our breath (and made it out that it was their need, not ours...thanks for saving us the embarrassment of being slightly out of shape!) Once on the first platform, we were given another review of safety procedures and otherwise encouraged to simply have a great time! Dave was the first to go across each line, and each time he stepped off a platform he wore a smile that indicated, "this is a great time and you're going to LOVE this!!" AND WE DID!! My husband has a fear of heights and had no issues riding the lines. Each line had a story (longest line, fastest line, etc) and made you yearn for the next. The rush of each line was so contagious! To top off our VIP tour (yes, Dave and James made us feel like VIPs), we were met with a choice of how to end our tour. I won't spoil the surprise for those who haven't been there, but suffice it to say, the choice you'll be faced with is one that will make you think for awhile! We loved our experience with Full Blast and strongly encourage others to get out there and do something that will challenge and thrill you at the same time! (PS - tip your guides...they work hard to ensure your safety while also providing encouragement. There's a certain level of psychology in what they do...they deserve those tips!!)
