Or raise your kid to be a normal human being and walk.
Chingchongpotatojack
Holy fuck that's stupid. Tell that kid to walk. Stop advertising on here
shadowbanmeagain
My Dad had this except instead I would say I am tired of walking and he would kick me in the butt.
TheDeanofLean
Why can't they just sit on your shoulders?
mimblewimble
Kids are heavy and it's a lot further to fall.
Davidnfilms
Get this, Tall guy already, go to places with really low doorframes. Break kid. Have to make a new one. Doesn't matter have sex.
vicesat
Why they don't just walk?
FuzzyMedic
Who run Bartertown?

GuestChrist
These brats are old enough to walk on their own. What if they slip off? That strap'll rip their arms off. Fuck it, just slap a leash on 'em
Diskocheese
These kids are old enough to work shifts in the coal mine, instead they use their parent as a chariot.
2minutenoodlesnevertake2minutes
Or they could just walk...
JSmith316
1. This is a great invention. 2. Can't wait to see first puke GIF.
buttholewink
Yeah a tiny slave on my back wouldn't be able to carry nearly as much as a backpack soooooo I'll pass
IUpvoteRussianGTAPosts
This is the dumbest shit I have ever seen. Who the fuck struggles with a piggyback?
mimblewimble
With a kid between 30-60lbs? It's tedious. You constantly have to make sure that you're holding them or if they let go they could fall.
SWReefer
Try extreme, off road, through the antarctic tundra piggybacking and then come say that
bananatoast
Can extreme piggybacking be a sport now? On the Ocho!
ZlaZena
Why is it the kids can't walk on their own 2 feet?
surrealizations
How much do humans that size weigh? Having done long distance backpacking, the 45-60 pounds isn't on your shoulders, but your hips.
Mavgurian
Yup, that thing does NOT work like a backpack, at least not like one that is worth its price and is worn correctly.
zachtidmore
I was thinking the same. Which is why I'm going to just shove my kid in a stuff-sack and carry them in my pack. Much more comfortable.
surrealizations
Sounds sound
procrastinatingagain
It's very cool but I think for what it is it should be about $59.
Hesphos
Step 1, have kids.
Lamplord
Pssh, what's the fun in a piggyback ride if you don't almost fall off and clench onto your parents throat in a death grip?
HenryHolmes101
All these kids look old enough to walk on their own
Inarticulated
White people
bananatoast
They are. Let little ese walk!
pearls4pigs
Push it faster, ese
LadyWidebottom
Yes, but not old enough to go long distance without complaining. I'd find it handy for hiking.
andsy
Standing like that for long distances won't work. Get a sling ("carry shawl") and tie them on your back. Cheaper, comfier for all, safer :)
LadyWidebottom
I have one of those already. Hurts my shoulders like hell.
andsy
(3) we've got a sturdy and heavy really long woven cotton sling, a real work horse of a wrap, that we still use with our toddler :)
andsy
.. we've also used various carriers like ergobaby/Manduca but the "long shawl" sling has been by far the most comfortable to use in our exp
andsy
Have you got one of the really long ones? There's a bunch of different ways to tie them. We've mostly used FWCC and basic rucksack ties ..
SaraFourImgur
Time to see if it can hold an adult
Pocketwing
Plus free shoulder workout
Richardglute
And they will still complain that their lil legs are tired...
Acrid89
Or their Benjamin Button knees
WhatsYour20
They'll find a reason to complain. You know it.
Jabberwotchi
My little cousin would say that shit XD 'But my legs are so little and tired!' cute lil shit
MediocreExtremist
what about the shift in center of gravity for the carrier... more unstable and therefore difficult to walk
ruferto
..i've never had trouble walking w/ a backpack on
Drathe
How many backpacks have you worn that have most of their weight centred higher than your shoulders though?
ruferto
my camping sack tends to sit higher.
CaptainDameron
Also, it depends on the size of the child. Some in the gif are only a little taller while some have their belly button almost over the top
CaptainDameron
Still nothing above your head-
reuleaux
But camping packs have a waist strap to put more weight on your hips than your shoulders
SuperBobKing
Aren't you supposed to load it so that the CoG ends up lower than your shoulders anyway?
woodjoiner
That photo shows us nothing about the center of gravity.
Vazhox
At they age.. shouldn't be in a stroller and should be walking.
SitOnMyFacePleeze
You don't have kids, do you?
Vazhox
Actually, I do.
bananatoast
Yep. Piggyback rides are great but not meant for long term at any rate.
FlyingDorito
That's neat. I don't have a kid though. In fact, I need to find a woman first.
holamur
Lets mate and have children lol
Sklumlord
and we all know how that's going...
procrastinatingagain
Find a short one and then she could use it.
NonZeroSumGame
This is terrible advice. Narrowing the selection criteria will make things more difficult for the poor man.
SweetSweetAmerifags
As a short female, I would have so much fun. Don't care if people stare!
misterbunkalup
Why can't they fuckin walk?
mimblewimble
polio
AlmostScientist
because they're entitled...oh God I'm becoming the previous generation!
secretlibby
Kids' legs are short. They have to jog/run to keep up with an adult's stride. Pair that with the caloric consumption, you enter the deadly
secretlibby
"hangry" zone where the kid is hungry, tired, and pissed.
noblespaceplatypus
feed them a snickers?
secretlibby
Sure, why not just unleash the seventh ring of Hell while you're at it?
SaraFourImgur
You ever taken a kid to the zoo?
bananatoast
I have. She walked.
SaraFourImgur
You monster
letstalknews
B/c parents have taken a role of doing just about everything for children now. Its actually kind of sick to watch.
EliMFrost
Hmm make it a little sturdier and guys can use this for their short girlfriends at concerts.
Tempurasushinomnomnom
Omg yes
Reilynn
At $284 it better be sturdy! Taking canibFrank's word for it. My "kids" weigh more than I do, so I didn't bother checking.
ohdeepthought
I'd feel so safe
canibFrank
I'm gonna pass - It's cool and all but $284.00 on Amazon!
dukenukemforpresident
For 20 bucks you can get a taser and make those little shits walk
Anlfisher
Give it 3 months and they'll be $20 versions
YankeeWhite
Yea I'll just continue to let my daughter ride on my shoulders
BecozImBatman
A cheaper design is coming up from China... £10... Better design. Black color.
animal531
Wow that's stupid. For e.g. $50 they'd sell 50x as many.
FancyBanana
might as well make your own out of an old backpack and some straps
VonOhlnhausen
What the hell! Its a Backpack with less material!
Armourhotdog
You could just make one for $20
canibFrank
OK, apparently $90+ on mfr's site. Still pricey, not as bad as I thought. Accessories like hip belt, hydration and storage are extra.
happytreeleaf
I'm getting one to carry my wife around
mookiedoi360
Haha 284 fucking dollars omg hahaaa
spookyu
Also, it's essentially a saddle. I wouldn't be able to get that idea out of my head.
Deloreanp
Replaces a stroller because it costs more I guess...
DualSupernova
Fuuuuuuck that, my little one can walk
canibFrank
My 5 year old would love it. What's reasonable - < $50?
DualSupernova
I would say less than 40
canibFrank
We have an $80 babybjorn, $200 backpack, several strollers. I would get this if it was reasonable but it's not. Cute but overpriced.
RamonaQ
Good grief that is steep. O.o
pacey5714
The kids can walk for 287$
mockingnurd
Right?
TheGuyWhoBeatsHisMeat
Left.
AlexisWalker
FORWARD!
CamelJockey818
Exactly, save the $292 and enjoy it elsewhere
PleaseDisperseNothingToSeeHere
Totally, I'd rather buy $302 of liquor
canibFrank
I mean, for my $319 I'd take the kids to the beach for the weekend.
laestrella
Jesus!
Pangs
That would be the mid-high end price for backpacking framed packs, which are definitely a higher design factor than this thing.
Penguinsruletheworld
That's a fucking rip off for that shit. the material cost alone would be at most 20 bucks. Labor less than 50 to assemble.(in america)
Penguinsruletheworld
That shit is built with 5 times the profit margins built into its price
SendMeThingsOthersHaveSentYou
Yeesh. I'm making my own.
zma123456
I can make this at home for under 30 bucks. I already know how to sew.
LongoloidFartExplosion
As a child I used to sew sleeping bags for my G.I. Joes.
Wormbo2
Ahaha, sunglasses bags for mine. Used to get good ones from Oakley, with camo and all.
LongoloidFartExplosion
I'm jealous now, mine were just green felt.
Rkhbusa
The whole point of putting a kid on your shoulders is that their little legs got tired. The kid still has to stand here.
checho503
Geeze.. I was about to ask where can I buy one... But she is my daughter
Thesecondaccount
Ebay has them for $85-180 way better still a little pricey though
inferno34
For 20 dollars of webbing, definitely American made
ImNotAnOrange
Damn just buy a $50 backpack and have them stand in that
Flyndaran
Only if you have near infant sized kids. I wrecked my backpack carrying 50-60 lbs too often.
LandoSaurus
For fucking nylon straps and a plastic shank!?
skyplex
Just make your own
s0cietya5under
That's because you're on Amazon, on their site, it's 90. Sooo....about the same as a stroller.
RyanMac
? Its 90$ right from the makers website..
drksdrlife
Only if you get the one SHIPPING FROM JAPAN! You can find them for like $150.
Muttons1337
Still way too much.
