all that being said I only made it because I have a slippery 4 year old and a slightly older but just as active nephew. if I take it out myself or with a more mature person I don't use them because theyre annoying.

Thanks Phil! Is the Trex permanently attached? Or temporarily fastened to the rails whe you're taking the kids out?
