Piggyback Rider^® is the Way to Go with Tots

Take heart on behalf of parents who want to be able to spend outdoor time with their toddler, but feel the strain when lugging around what rapidly feels like a sack of stone. Now there’s an answer! For a toddler carrier that won’t kill the carrier’s back and shoulders, stock The Piggyback Rider from Full Sail International, LLC. Playing off the tradition to carry a child on an adult’s back, Piggyback Rider does away with the need for cumbersome, bulky backpacks and awkward strollers. Easy to put on and take off, the Rider has a solid aluminum shoulder-mounted foot-bar to distribute the child’s weight, (up to sixty pounds), at the adult’s core, so the carrier can walk comfortably in a natural, upright position.

The child passenger stands firmly on the wide foot-bar, fully secured by a safety tether for maximum peace of mind. The unit weighs only three pounds and comes with its own multifunctional carry bag that that can also serve as a mud flap, small pouch and “stuff” sack. With Piggyback Rider, there are no more tiny hands on the verge of strangling the carrier because the manufacturers have cleverly mounted hand-holds on each side of the shoulder straps. Kids up to age two-and-a-half love being “on top of the world” and both the child and the person carrying him or her can experience the fun of being and doing together — walking, hiking, shopping and exploring. Portable, lightweight and simple to use, this is a kid-carrier made for adventures.

Piggyback Rider was named the Best New Product at the Outdoor Retailer Summer 2011 Expo and has received a 2011 Creative Child Award and numerous other accolades. The two brothers behind the parent company have eight kids between them and, needless to say, have done their fair share of schlepping. Convinced there had to be a better way for kids to ride on an adult’s back, they put their heads together to conceive this clever, functional device. After eighteen months encompassing many designs and lots of hard thinking, they developed what many refer to as “the last carrier you’ll ever buy.” Not only is the Piggyback a trend-setting device, it’s easy to care for, requiring only a gentle wipe with mild detergent and a damp cloth.

The raves are in for a tot-toter that does it all. Get on board at www.thepiggybackrider.com
