Editorial Review
Do you have children with Olympic aspirations? With the Fun Ride Classic Zip Line, your kids can fly through the air with the greatest of ease--for 35 exhilarating feet, at least. The steel stranded cable and all-weather, impact-resistant plastic trolley will help them build strength and self-esteem while they're having a ball, riding the Zip Line between trees or poles in your backyard. Parents may well want to get in on the action, but the trolley is only safe for those under 100 pounds. All required parts, hardware, and instructions for simple assembly are included. --Rachel Radway

Customer Reviews

the most popular toy in the neighborhood
I bought this toy 5 years ago and my children and their friends still go to it first in the backyard . It's fun,fast and safe and great exercise too. Ours has been through the wringer with 5 children and friends and other than replacing the pulleys after 4 years and tightening the cable it has withstood the elements. I would definitely buy this again.

Hard to set up
We bought this, and althought it's a great toy, it is NOT easy to set up properly. Assembling the trolly bar and stringing the cable wire was a bit tricky, but could be done (although we had to make a trip to Home Depot to buy the nuts and washers that were left out package by mistake). But the problem was that you simply can't get the wire tight enough to make it go well. If it's not tight enough (taut), then the ride sags when the child gets on, and it won't "go." We tried pulling and pulling, and are going to try to locate and borrow an electric winch to pull it tight enough so it will work. Shouldn't be this hard to install . . .

Fun for adults
This product is exactly as it says. The installation was pretty easy and all the adults in the family have taken a ride. The 70 foot cable is a decent length too. My husband was thrilled to get a toy for his 37th birthday!
