Our Take

The Slackers 50ft Eagle Series Zipline is a backyard aerial ride aimed at children aged roughly 7 and up who have enough outdoor space to accommodate a full run. It sits in the mid-range of the home zipline market, offering a longer-than-average 50-foot cable length with a moulded seat and a bungee brake system included in the box.

Key Features

50-foot (approximately 15 metres) galvanised steel cable rated for a stated maximum rider weight of around 68kg (150lbs)

Moulded plastic seat with rope hangers included, providing a comfortable seated position rather than a hand-grip-only setup

Bungee brake system designed to decelerate the rider gradually before the end of the cable, reducing jarring stops

Trolley wheel assembly runs along the cable and is designed for relatively straightforward attachment to trees or posts

Cable tensioning hardware included to allow some adjustment of the line sag

Riders must be a minimum of 91cm (approximately 3ft) tall per manufacturer guidance

Our Verdict

A solid mid-range choice for families with a spacious garden and suitable anchor points who want a longer, seated zipline experience. If your outdoor space is tight or your trees aren't well-established, look elsewhere. Those after a more robust, frequently-used setup should consider a higher-specification commercial-grade option.

What We Like

  • 50 feet is a genuinely useful run length that generates real speed without requiring a huge garden
  • The included brake bungee makes stopping noticeably smoother and safer than ziplines sold without one
  • The seated design is accessible to younger or less confident riders compared to handle-only alternatives

Things to Consider

  • Requires suitable anchor points — mature trees or purpose-built posts — which many gardens simply don't have
  • At this length and weight rating, installation must be done carefully; a poorly tensioned cable is a real safety risk
  • The seat and trolley can show wear relatively quickly under frequent heavy use
  • No installation service is included, and the setup process can be more involved than the instructions suggest
