I bought this for my 12 yo grandson who said no toys for Christmas. He loved it and we had to ask him to stop playing with it because he had other gifts to open. He absolutely loved it ❣️

It looks unreal from the videos online. How “string” could move like that. But it is all real, and oddly satisfying! I take it from my kids often, when they are not home, and play with the zip string. It is fun.

I bought these to go in my grandson’s stockings! I charged them up and made sure they work as advertised. We won’t know more until after Christmas but I predict they will have great fun!

When my 10 year old grandson unwrapped the zipstring on Christmas day he fell in love with the idea of this contraption. He actually prepped and threaded the shooter himself and started with the smallest string. he was engrossed in walking around with the lasso suspended in the air watching the shapes. he moved on to the next size and was thrilled to watch the bigger scale. When he fitted the largest string he was determined to float it on and off his uncle's head and giggled when he succeeded. I was delighted with his reaction and his concentration on the device did not wane for hours. He thought this gift ,[along with the buzzing magnets] was his favorite in 2024. I hope you continue to seek out these amazing and unusual products so I can continue to be the Nana who gives the 'coolest' gifts.
