If I were 8 years old again, this is the toy I would be begging for. I think it looks like so much fun. Now, as a parent I am a little more hesitant. I can just see all of my son's friends trying it out, getting crazy, and going smack right into the tree it is attached to. However, I saw one the other day and the owners had a piece of heavy-duty foam on the end of the cord. The zip line just bounced right off and the kid wasn't able to smack his face into that tree. Clever. Now I'm board again, but on one condition. I get to be the first one to try it! Think how fun it would be to fall into raked leaves or a big pile of snow.
