Canopy Tours Installation

Are you interested in Canopy Tours? If so, you have found us and come to the right place!

In the growing industry of canopy tours, EBL is the premier installer of canopy tours (based in tree tops) in the United States and the first to install Zip Line Tours (based from ground to ground points). We have the operational and installation experience to acheive your business goals. If you have seen canopy tours on TV, read about zip lines in an article, or already participated on a tour, odds are you were on an EBL installed or consulted tour. Established in 1996, EBL has been the premier contractor and has played a direct role in standards development for this new adventure tour experience, by donating much of our findings and research to the PRCA for the early development of their standards from 2003-2008. EBL is also the First U.S. Accredited Vendor for Canopy Tours installations and operations. We consulted, installed, designed, and/or trained some of the first courses on U.S. soil and a few internationally, to include:

Our founder began in ropes challenge courses and zip lines in 1984. Quickly, EBL became a leader in ropes challenge course developments and was instrumental in the creation of industry standards with the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) process to include zip line canopy tours.

We are still the market leader today in research, standards development, engineering, and number of successful tours installed. With proven business models and hand crafted zip lines and aerial bridges, we continue to lead the industry and be on the forefront of the industry pulse.

Additionally, we have consulted and delivered site visits for locations in California, Washington, Nevada, New Hampshire, Vermont, Arizona, and Tennessee!
