5. Who We Are
Victor Gallo Palomo graduated in wildlife biology from Colorado State
University. He pioneered sea kayaking in Costa Rica in 1987, paddled the
complete pacific coast from north to south, opened the first and foremost
bungee jumping operation in Latin America; Tropical Bungee, developed
rock climbing at a higher level and was the first to introduce professional
climbing equipment to Costa Rica through Centro de Adventura another one
of his creations. Victor opened the first climbing gym in the country and has
judged the X-Games Marlboro Adventure Team and the Camel Whitewater
Challenge. Victor has also promoted and organized competitions in rafting
surf kayaking, rock climbing and paragliding and of course has rigged cable
systems for stunts in movies, theatre and sports events.

Canopy Tour Construction & Zip Line Construction
A Zip line Tour is made up of several Zip lines, which are installed close to the Ground
or a tower and extend across canyons, ravines or valleys. Man-made structures or the
bases of trees provide the support and anchor points. Zip line tours will normally have
longer traverses due to the fact that structures that are built on the ground will handle
higher cable tension.
A Canopy Tour is made up of Zip lines, Hanging Bridges, Rappel stations, and giant
swings installed on or near the Canopy of the trees. The height on the trees allows for
clearance from the ground as well as an opportunity to be up and close to the rich
vegetation from the suspended platforms at each tree.

8. Our Services
Challenge Course Construction
Challenge Course program is committed to enhance team-building,
self-confidence, and leadership development through adventure-
based learning experiences

9. Our Services
Hanging Bridges & Access Bridges
Aerial Bridges – Bridges provide the easiest access to the treetops. They will
complement any canopy tour to create diversity and will enhance the experience.
We maintain a pristine look to all our bridges in order to reduce weight on the trees
and provide a natural feel with the environment.
Access Bridges – Access bridges require engineering plans and are designed with
solid structures on both ends in order to comply with the needs for higher volume
pedestrian crossing. Bridges are custom designed according to the client’s needs,
potential loads and terrain conditions. Normally a geotechnical study is needed to
determine ground stability and conditions.

10. EcoTram
Ecotram is the first self -driven cable car that carries visitors on the ultimate aerial journey to explore
diverse settings. It is eclectically driven and can accommodate everyone, including seniors and most
alternately abled persons. Ecotram LLC estimates that about half of the worldwide nature/
ecotourism market is not served by cableways. This means millions of potential customers are
waiting for an aeral adventure that allows an effortless nature experience.
Zip-Lines and “ski-lifts” suffer a major shortcoming – they can’t stop. Indeed, zip-lines are so fast
that the scenery is a blur. Both wildlife and nature lovers often choose to avoid noise generated by
zip lines. Ski-lifts are massive (as well as expensive) and they can’t go where the action is. Visitors
wan tto be able to stop so they can watch and photograph undisturbed wildlife. As the only system
able to satisfy these desires, EcoTram taps a huge sleeping market.

11. Our Services
Tree Houses
Humans have the innate ability to climb. Our phalanges are made to grab holds and
naturally climb, but since we were children it has been a restriction put upon us not to go
up things from the fear of falling. The Korowai of Indonesia not only climb but live on the
treetops in the jungle. Tree houses are the most basic form of arboreal living. The
natural support that trees provide open our minds to the most creative ways to fit a
dwelling. We build custom tree houses in diverse environments and tree species. Size
and materials depend mostly on tree strength and its branch structure.

12. Our Services
Inspections & Retrofitting
Adventure Playground is a ACCT Certified Inspector #5360087.
Our goal is to offer inspections in compliance with world standards. If your course does
not comply with standards we provide enough feedback and recommendations to outfit
your course accordingly. If you do not have the ability to fix the course yourself we can
provide retrofitting services.

13. Our Services
Rigging For Film,Theatre, & Events
We assemble, cable and rope systems at heights for applications such as concerts, special
effects, film and industry. We offer our services for a variety of locations and applications.
We supply flying rigs for vertical/horizontal flight simulation.

14. Our Services
Retrofitting
If your course is outdated and not up to standards, we
provide the knowledge and creativeness to bring your
course up to par. Are your trees getting strangled by old
cables and blocks? We can save your trees by placing
appropriate hardware and anchoring systems. Are your
platforms crooked? We can reconstruct from the top
down any course which is either old or was not built in
accordance to safety standards.
