Moreover, this toy also packs a sturdy construction, as its built with aerospace-grade materials, meaning it can withstand children’s typical playtime.
Moving on to its different components. For launching and retracting its string, the ZipString Aracna uses a patented mechanism powered by two rotating roller wheels mounted side by side. This mechanism make this toy capable of quickly launching flying loops of string from your wrist at a high-speed as well as rapidly retracting its string, which allows for nearly instant reloading.

- a Super-Long String – perfect for performing tricks like “The Portal” (where one of your friend’s or family members can dive through or even front-flip through a giant loop you create with the toy)
- two Ultra-Glow Strings that glow in the dark
Its included strings are durable and rated to withstand thousands of launches with proper care.
