ATLANTA – Inspired by the hit TV show, American Ninja Warrior, SlingShot Entertainment’s indoor facility in Peachtree Corners near Atlanta makes use of Milos structural products for its 12,000-square-foot obstacle course. The course, with 24 challenging obstacles designed by American Ninja Warrior contestant Jason Huewe, makes use of Milos components including their QTL/QTV truss.

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 12,000 square feet. 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”.
