If the Head Slingers head wen't over the riders head, how did the Head Slinger get it's head back to the top?

I would have to draw a diagram for you, but basically, a cable goes from a mount behind the body across the track and is mounted on another side…like a zip line. The head is then placed on the cable using a carabineer or something of the sort. Another cable, which is attached to a pneumatic cylinder behind the stunt, is attached to the head and also loops through the screw eye on the other side of the track. When the cylinder is compressed, the cable is loosened, which makes the head travel long the cable toward the patron. When the cylinder is decompressed, the cable pulls down, which pulls the head back into its original position. If I have time, I will try to draw something up to illustrate it better. Hope this helps.
