Description
Turn any Funky Monkey Bars frame into a full flying-fox adventure. The Floating Flying Fox glides along a steel cable strung between two points on your existing frame, giving kids a genuine zip-line thrill without leaving the backyard.
Available Lengths
- 2.3 m (Cheeky) - ideal for smaller backyards or tighter frame spans. Perfect starter length for younger riders. From A$540.
- 3 m (Standard) - the most popular run, great for a wide range of frame configurations. From A$540.
- 6 m - a longer glide that suits spacious yards and larger frames. From A$1,060.
- 12 m - maximum thrill for big setups and commercial or school installations. From A$1,390.
Choose Your Grip Style
- Button Swing - a comfortable seated disc swing. Kids sit rather than hang, making it accessible for younger or less confident riders.
- Handle - a hand-grip bar for older kids who want a classic, hang-on flying-fox experience.
Compatibility
Designed to integrate with the Funky Monkey Bars modular frame system. The cable anchors to two uprights or cross-members on your existing frame - no standalone poles required. Check your frame span against the length options above before ordering. Assembly instructions are included (PDF download available on your order confirmation).
