After reading all the safety information on this page and the rst page,
you may now start to assemble your Hardwood Skateboard Swing using
the following directions.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Find a healthy, strong hardwood tree that has a branch*
that stretches at least 8 feet (2.4m) from its trunk and has a
circumference** between 251/4 to 100 inches (64.1 to 254cm).
The tree branch should be at least 8 feet (2.4m) from the ground.
The tree trunk should have a circumference of at least 251/4 inches
(64.1cm). The tree and its branch should be strong enough to hold
at least 200 lbs. (90.7 kgs.)***. Clear the surrounding ground of
debris prior to installing your swing (Fig. 1). Make sure the tree
branch does not stretch: into a road, sidewalk, or street; over a
fence; someone else’s property; or any other obstacle. Select the
equipment on level ground, not less than 6 ft (1.8 m) from any
structure or obstruction such as fence, garage, house, overhanging
branches, laundry lines, or electrical wires.
*The tree branch must allow at least 12 inches (30.5cm) of clearance between the skateboard
swing & ground. The skateboard swing ropes are about 66 inches (167.6cm) in length.
**9-ft tree straps can only wrap around a tree branch of a max 100-inch (254cm) circumference.
Helpful hint: wrap tree straps around the tree branch for height adjusting purposes.
***Please note that the skateboard swing can only hold a person weighing up to 200 lbs.
2. Find the center of the branch. Take one of the two tree straps.
While holding one end, throw the other end over the tree branch.
Feed one end of the strap through the loop and pull taut (Fig. 2).
Attach a carabiner hook to the open end loop. Keep the carabiner
hook unlocked (loosen its screw lock).
3. Repeat this step for the second strap, having it spaced instructed
below. All to-fro swings, belt type or rigid, shall have a minimum
distance between suspension points as calculated from the
following formula (Fig. 3):
• A= 0.04(H) + B
• A= The center to center distance between the upper most
suspension points of the swing assembly.
• B= The center to center distance between the swing seat
attachment points (in the case of exible seats, place the
weighted test xture in the seat before measuring dimension.
• H= The distance between the uppermost suspension point
and the protective surfacing.
4. Take the preassembled skateboard swing. Join its neighboring pair of “O”
rings together and hook them on the carabiner hook that’s connected
to the tree strap (Fig. 4). Repeat this step for the opposite pair of “O”
rings of the preassembled skateboard swing. Make sure the skateboard
swing ropes and tree straps are not crossing. Lock the carabiner hooks
by tightening their screw locks. Make sure the skateboard part clears the
ground at least 12 inches (30.5cm) and is leveled. Adjust the clearance
height and level by adjusting the tree straps accordingly, by wrapping
the tree straps around the tree branch until desired height and level is
achieved (Fig. 1). You are now ready to ride!
TIPS FOR RIDING:
1. To swing, always maintain balance. To swing, stand your weight on
your back leg to move forward and your front leg to move backward.
2. To get off the board, come to a complete stop, sit down, and
dismount. Always maintain balance.
3. To get off the board, come to a complete stop, sit down, and
dismount. Always maintain balance.

Step 2
Find the center of the branch. Take one of the
two tree straps. While holding one end, throw
the other end over the tree branch. Feed one
end of the strap through the loop and pull taut
(Diagram 1). Attach a carabiner hook to the
open end loop. Keep the carabiner hook
unlocked (loosen its screw lock). Repeat this
step for the second strap, having it spaced
between 24 to 36 inches (61 to 91.4cm) from
the first strap.
Step 3
Take the preassembled skateboard swing. Join its
neighboring pair of “O” rings together and hook them on
the carabiner hook that’s connected to the tree strap
(Diagram 2). Repeat this step for the opposite pair of “O”
rings of the preassembled skateboard swing. Make sure
the skateboard swing ropes and tree straps are not
crossing. Lock the carabiner hooks by tightening their
screw locks. Make sure the skateboard part clears the
ground at least 12 inches (30.5cm) and is leveled. Adjust
the clearance height and level by adjusting the tree straps
accordingly, by wrapping the tree straps around the tree
branch until desired height and level is achieved.
Step 4
Start air skateboarding! Always exercise caution when
using it (Diagram 3).
See the “Safety Information” section
of these instructions for safety info.
Tips for Riding
(A) To swing, always maintain balance. To swing, stand your
weight on your back leg to move forward and your front leg to
move backward.
(B) There are no brakes! Stand your weight on your back leg
and resist backswing to slow down.
(C) To get off the board, come to a complete stop, sit down,
and dismount. Always maintain balance.
