About Experiential Resources
Crafting Unforgettable Experiences
A BRIEF HISTORY
Since 1993, Experiential Resources “ERi” has been at the forefront of the aerial adventure industry.
ERi began as a ropes course and climbing wall company, primarily serving the non-profit, educational, and youth camping communities.
In the early 2000s we expanded to focus on the commercial zipline industry, specifically leading the development of designs and products to facilitate the “big zips” that are now prominent throughout the world.
In about 2014, trends and client needs started to shift away from attractions that are staff and equipment-intensive and that have significant throughput limitations. ERi began dreaming up high-volume, operationally efficient aerial attractions that are unique; each one specifically designed to reflect and enhance place, while also meeting the objectives of clients and investors.
Our current focus is partnering with our clients to create iconic, successful attractions that give guests one of the best days of their lives.
OUR APROACH
ERi has experience delivering services in every aspect of an attraction’s lifespan. While specializing in design, our construction, inspection, and operations experience strongly informs our design work, as we strive to make everything that we produce both beautiful and functional.
During the design process, consideration is always given to initial as well as ongoing needs, such as cost-efficiency of materials and construction, staffing and maintenance requirements, operational risk management, and phased growth/master planning. We believe that comprehensive planning is critical to the long-term health of the project. Getting to opening day is the short-term goal, as we want our partners and projects to be successful long into the future.
Our success delivering as part of larger development teams speaks to ERi’s collaborative nature. We appreciate having been provided ample opportunity to work on high-performing teams to produce world renowned projects and attractions. Over the course of years this has served to increase our level of thoughtfulness regarding all facets of site and attraction development.
Professional community and quality standards are important to us, so most of our team members volunteer their time within multiple trade associations and standards development organizations. ERi is an active, participatory Organizational Member within ASTM International, focusing on the F24 body of standards. We are an Accredited Vendor of ACCT International, which involves undergoing a review process that ensures our practices adhere to the world’s most recognized standard specific to the aerial adventure industry. True to our innovative spirit, ERi is also a founder of The Alliance Collaborative, a non-profit dedicated to rethinking the aerial adventure industry by promoting and enabling collaboration amongst individuals, organizations, and companies.
The ERi team has been responsible for products and projects that have successfully served tens of millions of guests.
We seek out the right projects and partners to keep both our company and our industry growing.
And we love what we do.
