Cord Swing

I was looking for a new high-altitude maneuver when I noticed the braided cord dangling from the window blinds. I sprinted along the windowsill, leaped into the air, and caught the thick plastic pull-ring with both hands! My momentum kicked in instantly, swinging me forward in a wide, breezy arc right through the sunbeam. At the peak of the pendulum swing, I let out a low whoop, tucked my legs up, and rode the backward glide like a mini zip line. When the swinging settled, I dropped lightly onto a stacked pile of magazines below. That was pure aerial speed!
