I am considering using this as a game for my two young children in the car. Would the length of the pole work for them to reach the floorboard?

If they are in car seats, probably not. Also, the magnets need to link up squarely, and that means the fish have to be vertical to "catch" them-- I'm not sure it would work in the car. That being said, we absolutely love this toy in the tub, pool, and water table.

My suggestion would be no, I bought this for grandson last year and the ball would always fall to the bottom of the ball it would not stay on the track . I would look for something different. Merry x mas!

If there is an attachment to fit the pole, this pole would work fine. An attachment similar to the brush and skim net.

I would say yes. Keep in mind it won't keep them riveted for hours, they are only simple wind up cars... but they will probably be entertained for a few minutes at a time. If I start the game by firing them across the kitchen floor my 3 and 6 yr olds will play every time

Should work. You will probably need to spread the two rails (balloons) as far as possible apart as the Hyundai's roof might be too short to carry 11' board (in my language 11' translates to 3.3 meters, while the total car's length is 4.4meter (173 inches).Now you did not mention the thickness nor the weight of the board. This equipment can not carry more than 20 Kilos (44 lbs) and I would not challenge it.

The slide is spiraled so I'm not sure length pieces would be that helpful. I think the manufacturer has lots of measurement info on their site that might be helpful.

Hello,In my opinion it won't work unless you remove the trucks. It is made with a groove meant for snowboards allowing it to be flush with the wall. The skateboards are thicker and with the trucks it won't hang. I'd go to Home Depot, bring the skateboard and find a hook to hang it off the trucks.

I think, as long as you keep it level it should work. Only when the front comes up (therefore the tail coming down) you would have a problem, e.g. going up a ramp...

If you have 3 legs that are shaped kind of like the letter "U" it theoretically should work. But I found (even after confirming diameters with this company) that the diameter of the clamps to attach the poles on the net, to the legs of the trampoline did not work on my older, wider-poled JumpKing. I ended up buying much longer screws to reach, and cut up a hula hoop (splitting the plastic sections lengthwise) to use as shims. I will try to upload a photo to show my work-around.

The pole is about 5 ft and thats long enough. Its so heavy that a pole any longer would be to heavy.......................................johan`

Funny! I tried it a for awhile, it did not work. Went back to it, it did not work. Finally I figured it out. Have you figured it out yet? A couple of things: 1) the pole pulls out to be longer. It should be as tall as you are. 2) it seems like it does not fit in hole. But, you have to push hard. 3) Look at picture on box. The parts will actually end up looking like the picture. (Smile)

I measured from the floor to the top of the handels,which are at their lowest setting and it is 34 1/2 inches,so depending on the height of the child it might or might not work-----------I like this item very much

This depends on the age(s) of the children, and their heights. They have to be able to touch the ground at the opposite end from where they start. If it is too steep (say 5 or 6 ft. above tree platform), there is a chance the child could slam into the tree or post at the end. I'd buy some sort of stopper(s) before the line ends.

I don't think this will work. It is not very thick and probably would not touch the floor.

Our ceilings are 8' and the pole works fine. There is a threaded rod that inserts into the pole at the top, and I don't remember how far it is inserted into our pole. I'm pretty sure that another 4 or 5 inches is inserted in the pole, which would let it extend to nearly 8' 6". There may be even more than that inserted into the pole. The pole is a good solid steel, so it could be cut off to make it as short as you would want.

As others have said, it depends on the pole. As long as one end of the pole or the other is straight, it will work. I used a straight pole which I drove into the ground and then slid the baffle on from the top.

The cones I purchased were about 10 inches tall so I'm not sure how well they would work for training a student driver. They would most likely not do any damage to the car. As far as holding up if they were hit by a car, bumping them wouldn't be a problem, but if it were much beyond that, I don't think they would last very well.
