These things are sick and it would be awesome if Portland had one. The funnest thing is edging outside of the pulleys in the corner, and trying to make it on your own speed around the next pulley so the rope gets tight again. I swear you can get going like 50 mph. pacifichigh Since 11 May 2005 1004 Posts ATX Texan Fri Feb 16, 07 8:33 am     Financially a cable park does not make sense in PDX. You would be playing to a small core audience in the winter which probably wouldn't come close to covering your overhead. I've ridden the cable park in Orlando and its sick! Some guys put together a business plan for an indoor cable in Utah, but it never got off the ground. lance_k Since 04 May 2005 565 Posts Hood River Photographer Fri Feb 16, 07 6:36 pm     pacifichigh wrote: Financially a cable park does not make sense in PDX... maybe but there are 60 in germany alone. there are none on the west coast. if i had $50,000 i'd build it for the hell of it. _________________ www.lancekoudele.com pkh Since 27 Feb 2005 6549 Posts Couve / Hood Honored Founder Fri Feb 16, 07 8:11 pm     indoor cable park in downtown pdx would be sweet... I'd hit it everyday at lunch, and I'd bet you'd get tons of other folks too. Reaper356 Since 10 Dec 2006 781 Posts Salem / LC Oregon Opinionated Fri Feb 16, 07 8:18 pm     That sounds really cool.
