About Challenge Courses. . . .
ACA has been informed through a posting by the Professional Ropes Course Association of an issue concerning the use of a Strandvise® device on challenge courses (this device is used as a part of a cable termination for one end of the cable on a challenge course element and should have a "back-up" in most situations). For the official statement developed by the Association for Challenge Course Technology (ACCT), download the PDF. If you have a challenge course (or a single element) using this device, it is recommended to contact your vendor and/or inspector regarding this matter. To gain additional information about general challenge course issues, join ACA's Adventure Challenge Public Policy Issue group.
