Milos supplied support structures for the largest Ninja Warrior course in the United States! Located in the Slingshot Play facility in Peachtree Corners (a metro area of Atlanta, Georgia), the 12,000 m2 course features Milos QTL/QTV truss and was designed by “American Ninja Warrior” contestant, Jason Huewe. “American Ninja Warrior” is a wildly popular American television show that has about 40 difficult obstacles that contestants must overcome.
When asked why Slingshot chose Milos to
support 24 obstacles in the course, Jason replied, “Some of the main deciding factors which made us go with them instead
of some of the other brands out there was the strength of their product, the
quickness that it could actually be assembled together by a limited number of
people, and the price point of their product was very affordable compared to
their competitors”. The monstrous course at Slingshot has many
levels with various challenges and ability requirements. Areas of the course include
a peg board, slack bridge, gecko wall, disk slide, ropes and ramps. Inflatable pits below the challenges soften
any falls by ninja hopefuls. While
speaking about the Milos structure, and how it has filled its role since the
course opened, Jason commented, “The
entire assembly has held up very well”.
In operation since the fall of 2015, the
Slingshot facility covers more than 130,000 m2. In addition to the Ninja
Warrior Course, visitors can also find an interactive 14 alley bowling lane,
high speed electric go-karting race track, tri-level mega play area for kids, 2
floor restaurant, video arcade, meeting rooms and party rooms. “Milos has met the majority of our needs”, said Jason. He then added, “Overall,
we’ve been able to get and work with all the products needed to get this park
to come together”. With Milos truss, Slingshot was able to
strike a winning combination that ensures the maximum safety of their guests
and the long-term feasibility of their investment. In closing, Jason commented, “I would recommend Milos for similar
installations”.

As the world becomes increasingly interconnected, exhibitions have evolved far beyond their traditional role as trade promotion platforms.
In the event world, it’s simply part of life if things don’t work out as planned.
Networking typically happens at real, in-person events. But it’s also possible to do it online; it just works a little differently. There are various options available to organisers.
New products and a well-conceived stand design are not the only drivers for a successful presence. Many other factors are also important, but trade fair planners often lose sight of them.
Trade fairs and trade fair companies need to constantly further develop, become more agile and flexible and offer services all year round. New, digital offerings are very important here. With its TrustedTargeting technology, Messe München offers its customers access to leading business-to-business decision-makers on the Internet.
