VistaRope® Frame Net
"Kids love to climb nets. It has always been one of the most popular parts of any playground design. VistaRope allows our clients to add fun and exciting net options that are more durable and longer-lasting at very competitive pricing." - Tim Aylesworth, Park N Play Territory Manager

Enhancing childhood development  

The beautiful thing about rope and net equipment is that it enables children to exercise the physical, socio-emotional, sensory, and cognitive developmental domains.

The VistaRope® equipment is based on the latest research on childhood development and is designed to enhance both fine and large motor control skills.

VistaRope® Wave

Accessible for all

Leading the launch for VistaRope® is the GT Wave. It is the industry's first net climber with a transfer platform attached to an accessible route leading to a six-foot zip slide. The beauty of the GT Wave is that it enables children of all abilities to experience a wide range of play adventures with their fellow children.

VistaRope® Wave

Designed for durability

Regular net climbers are so popular that they get worn out quickly. GameTime uses custom WeaveTech™ construction to create strong, durable, and long-lasting playground net systems.

WeaveTech™ ropes are industry-leading and 20mm in diameter. They're up to four times stronger than competing playground nets.

GameTime uses a flexible polyamide core surrounded by six SteelForce® ropes with the industry’s highest steel content. The cable system is encased in their ComfortGrip® synthetic polymer that is softer and more durable than nylon.

WeaveTech™ Cables

Industry-leading warranty

GameTime's focus on providing quality products that will last means you also get the best warranty in the business.

All VistaRope® equipment comes standard with:
