It has been MONTIC’s policy to construct ride systems for excitement in the past ten years on the basis of the highest
available safety standard meaning no actual risk to the participant at all.
SCAD systems are built and constructed under up to date safety standards, apply to CE Norms and have all been inspected,
controlled and tested by the TÜV, which is a technical safety inspection Institute with international acceptance and
reputation.
All suspension lines holding the SCAD device in each corner have a safety coefficient of 10. which means they can hold
10 times the maximum weight. Additionally every suspension has a separate back up, which holds in the event of a broken
component. Tests hove shown, that even if one suspension came completely loose, the SCAD would still remain in position
and catch the diver safely.
The system also has "Triple Redundancy" - that means that every rope or line has a backup- and that backup also has a
backup!
The landing in the net is so soft, that the diver does not feel any impact and the maximum G-force for a very light
person is only 4 G, which is below the International Amusement Ride Standards, it is the only thrill ride that combines
thrill with a maximum of comfort. There are no distracting elements or uncomfortable force exposures.
Experience has proven, that SCAD Diving is an activity which has a much higher safety degree than comparable rides, as
the risk of human error is completely erased. No parts of the system can be changed or altered during operation.
The special release system to enable the Controlled Free Fall (CFF) was developed over a period of two years and has
been free of failure ever since. All participants connect to the CFF system. The CFF harness warrants, that the correct
body position is maintained during the entire free fall to ensure a comfortable and safe landing. Panic or deliberate
attempts to turn or spin the body out of this position are impossible.
The CFF is an invention by MONTIC designed to ensure a controlled free fall to untrained persons. It consists of a
comfortable shaped back rest, padded with foam, as well as leg rest. These two sections of the harness have rigid forms
built into the harness. The middle section is only foam and can be adjusted in lenght to fit any size person.
