What do I use to make a balance line for my grand children?

Gibbon slack lines only need to solid posts preferably trees. The Gibbon I own now is my second slack line and works great. It has a little ware on it but ratchets are hard on slack lines, but there by far the most hassle free set up and take down and when it only costs about 100.00 you can afford to replace it in 5 years or so if you need too.

The original gibbon slack line is definitely a good one, although the Gibbon Jibline is a little bit cheaper and pretty much just as good. As mentioned in the previous responses, you will need two strong trees to set up the line. just remember, learning takes some practice, but tell them to keep their arms away from their bodies and their eyes on a set point in the distance. thats the trick!

I would recommend the original gibbon slackline, and that set comes with everything you'll need to set up a balance line, as long as you have 2 strong trees that are at least 5" in diameter and alive to attach the line to. I hope this helps!

No. The foot pegs do not get in the way of kids learning how to balance. It actually helps them. Go to Youtube and you can see videos on this. It is a great little starter bike. You also may want to buy your kid a push scooters (Radio Flyer Shockwave Scooter or any other good brand). It will help your child a lot. My oldest son learned how to ride his bike 6 weeks after riding his Radio Flyer Shockwave Scooter.

I used command hooks that have the metal movable hook that I bought at target and these worked perfectly for holding the weight without damaging my ceilling. Hope this helps!!

hi - I don't know. I've only used this one brand and I eventually returned the item. Could not get it to balance properly.

I don't think that would work well. The handle swivels to operate the handle bars, so it wouldn't be very steady if you were trying to help a child balance.

You would need something so they can stay upright and stationary. Amazon sells a battery operated plastic kind that would work better based on your inquiry.

I can use the net on both grandchildren's jogging strollers. One is a Graco and one is a Baby Trend.

I bought this for my grandson for Christmas -- so I have no idea how to use it. Sorry. Wish I could help you out.

Yes. I purchased it for my mother, who's 87 and this was one of her main concerns, as she was having lots of balance issues. She was 'very' pleased with the quality of the product.

You need a balance charger. Inexpensive ones can be found at www.hobbyking.com.

It is difficult. It would be good if you could make the straddle where it would snap for small babies and unsnap as the baby gets a little larger. I think the straddle piece is the problem. I have to have a second person to help me a fish him out. He is at a weight that i don't think he need the straddle piece. He is about 28 pounds now and 18 months old. Don't see it a hazard removing the straddle at this weight and age. I don't use everyday being that I am the grandparent but it would be a hassle used everyday by myself.

Or grandchildren use this for both. They are rugged and stand up to all there use.

Use the tripod screw on the bottom and fasten it on the top, then use the weights to balance it.

We just tied knots, but a strap with hooks or something like that might be best. Especially if much more length is needed. Grandkids love it!

Hi Cheryl. The box I ordered had a few examples on a sheet inside. Sorry yours didn't. You can go online, though, and find some ideas. Here are 3 of the sites I found. (parents.com/kid/chenille stem craft ideas) (ehow.com/pipe cleaner craft ideas) (artistshelpingchildren.org/pipe cleaner crafts for kids) Good luck! Sandy
