A nice red oak near our place was the setting for some rope filled fun today...

I used two slings in lieu of an approved kids saddle as my little guy isn't quite big enough yet. Don't worry, its momma approved.

Very cool Dylan, fun stuff for kids to be out there having a good time in the weather.

I did a lower, slightly longer zip line like this for my kids, next thing I knew every kid in the neighborhood was here. I had to keep taking harness on and off every kid, had to pull most up to tree and give them a starer pull on the down slope as it wasn't very steep. Ran a 1/2" polydyne from tree to front of truck and tensioned with truck. Perfect slack so kids would make it to ground long before they hit the truck

Haha...I've experienced a similar situation, almost makes you want to print some waivers off before going out!

adorable! My dad is an arborist and has pictures of me when I was 4 years old doing similar things! They are great!
