How long will this toy last?
SpinSticks are made to last more than 10 years, in fact the lucky kids getting spun today could be spinning their grandkids on the same toy many generations from now! They are made with many high quality materials and will not break like most imported toys. At the AZ State Fair we gave rides to over 3,000 people using only one SpinStick, other than a few scratches in the handle we feel this toy could easily survive another 10,000 rides.

Will my kids like it?
Yes. They will get outside with other people and laugh. This is a great way for
families to "Spin more time together"TM

Is this like the Sit N' Spin? As a kid I spent hours spinning around on that toy and loved it!
The SpinStick spins around in circles just like kids love but it also allows kids to just hold on and go for a ride like when they are at their favorite amusement park! Most sit and spin toys are not rated for over a 40 pound rider because they are plastic, while our toy is tested to withstand over 150 pounds continuously because it is made out of aircraft aluminum and wood.
-
What games can be played with the SpinStick?
Many games can be a lot more fun with a SpinStick. Pin the tail on the donkey, Balls into baskets, Pouring water into cups, Dizzy bat, and Sandy beach games are all much more fun while dizzy! Using more than one SpinStick at a time allows the dizzy passengers to compete in different games together, prepare to laugh your heart out during family functions!
-
Can I use this toy inside and outside the house?
The SpinStick is the most fun when used outside in open areas with grass. Using the SpinStick indoors on large open carpeted areas should also be fine if used with caution. Do not operate the SpinStick around anything that is hard, sharp, breakable, glass or anything else that could could injure a person especially when dizzy! Do not use the SpinStick on slick or hard surfaces such as but not limited to tile, concrete, and wood.

Will something break?
To date we have NEVER had a toy break or bend. The SpinStick is made to last.

How will I know when to stop spinning my kids?
When the spinning passenger moves (wobbles) their head away from the pole, they are usually done. The passengers should also communicate to you they are ready to stop.
