Oh, to be a kid again.
How we would eat, play with, and wear lunch. How we would show off our sneakers with wheels. And how we would nap or run around naked whenever we felt like it. (Without fear of getting thrown into Brooklyn lockdown.)
Throw caution to the wind with Power Chute, a silly-looking adult toy that’ll have you squealing with absolute delight.
In theory, the colorful resistance chutes are a fitness gadget for serious athletes. In practice, some good sneaks and a stretch of turf (far from the Hudson River sunbathers and the Central Park tourists) transform them into an absurdly good time.
Here’s how it works: Attach the Power Chute belt to your waist and rest the chute on the ground (just imagine it’s a kite). Take a running start; the chute will inflate, creating a drag effect. Release the chute to get an insane surge of speed — not to mention a heady hit of adrenaline.
It’s a thrilling way to be active in the crisp fall weather. And, of course, to unapologetically break wind in public.
Oh, don’t be so childish.
