 You CAN go home again!May 21, 2010
Fun Ride having been one of my children's activities many years ago, I was inspired recently when I saw one in a yard along the street. The briefest of searches took me to a great deal through Amazon, and I bought two for my grandchildren. I found reviews from people who had trouble installing it to be pathetic; I'll bet they don't even know how to start a lawn mower. I also howled at the preposterous safety regulations which cover pages of small type; our old Fun Ride ran from tree to tree over the deep ravine which has since been filled to make our driveway. the children used to carry rocks between their feet and bomb targets in the hole. No one was ever hurt playing the Fun Ride as hard as they could push it and themselves. My grandchildren push it and themselves just as hard. I bought a 100' length of heavier cable with clamps to extend the distance beyond the modest but reasonally adequate one supplied. Our old Fun Ride did eventually break, I can't imagine how, but it was not when a child was on it. Timeless fun.

Intended to be tied between two trees. You need to know what you are doing if you want to tie one end to a building structure because of the loads on the cable.
Use it every dayJan 30, 2010
We are enjoying the item. Our little girl is 6 and has quite a lot of energy. It took a bit of adjusting to get the wire just right, and as far as mounting both ends evenly, that did not work. We raised the one side about 3 feet higher than the other end and now she zips down hill quite nicely. She hops off the end which is only about a 5 inch drop and runs it back to the other tree to do it again. We did have to get creative on how to reach the starting height, so we put the old picnic table there and she just climbs right up and goes. We also modified it by adding a seat for her to use when she wants to just sit and zip. This enables her to be on it without us. Whew
It's lasted for years.Dec 26, 2009
My 5 and 7 year old kids have now enjoyed this zip line for years. I've even foolishly left it outside all winter with no problems. I only wish it would support up to 200 lbs.
fun for kidsSep 11, 2009
This is a great toy for kids. Unfortunately, it's only strong enough to hold about 100 lbs, so adults will have to sit this one out. If you're looking for a good zip line, this is it, unless you have adults that want to ride. If you're an adult and this looks like something fun for you, you might want to go for another option.
Setup is fairly easy. Most people will be able to do it without much trouble, although it might take a little longer than expected. The toughest part, in my opinion, was getting the line tight. We have only used this a few times and it looks like this is something we're going to have to look at next season. Seems a bit looser than when we set it up. Not sure if that's how they all are or if it was my installation.
Regardless, it's a fun toy.
