🌳 7 Reasons Families & Grandparents Should Add a SkyStand & Swing to Their Yard

Whether you're a parent looking to upgrade your backyard or a grandparent hoping to create lasting memories with your grandkids, the SkyStand is a game-changer. It’s more than just a "swing stand" for the tree—it’s a gateway to outdoor fun, connection, and creativity. Here’s why families love it:

1. No Branch? Weak Limb? Branch to High? No Problem!

One of the biggest challenges with backyard swings is finding a strong, low-hanging branch. If your tree has a weak limb, no limb, or one that’s too high—don’t worry. The SkyStand mounts directly to a healthy tree trunk (12"–22.5" diameter), eliminating the need for a branch altogether. It’s a smart solution for turning almost most medium to large trees into a swing-ready play zone.

2. Safe & Strong for All Ages

SkyStand is built tough—with a powder-coated steel frame that supports up to 500 lbs. That means it’s safe for multiple kids, teens, and even adults. Grandparents can swing with their grandkids or simply watch with peace of mind. The grip-lock plates add extra side-to-side stability, reducing movement while swinging and keeping everyone secure.

3. It Feels Like Flying — and Brings People Together

There’s something magical about swinging. It gives you the sensation of flying—weightless, free, and full of joy. Kids imagine themselves as superheroes, surfers, or birds soaring through the sky. But swinging is also social. It’s a shared experience where kids take turns, cheer each other on, and sometimes swing together. It’s a simple yet powerful way to connect across generations and create joyful outdoor memories.

4. Easy Setup in Under an Hour — Quick Takedown Too!

You don’t need to be a DIY expert to install the SkyStand. With two people, setup takes about 30–60 minutes, and all tools are included. Video instructions make it even easier. And when winter rolls around, you can take it down in under 15 minutes to protect it from the elements.

5. Encourages Outdoor Play & Family Bonding

In a world full of screens, SkyStand invites kids to unplug and play outside. It transforms your yard into a space for active, imaginative fun. Whether it’s swinging solo or playing with siblings and friends, it’s a great way to promote movement, creativity, and quality time with family.

6. Durable & Weather-Resistant

SkyStand is designed to last. Its powder-coated finish resists rust and wear, making it ideal for year-round outdoor use. Rain, sun, or snow—this swing stand is ready for it all.

7. Perfect Swing Pairings

SkyStand works beautifully with Trelines 24" or 40" round swings. Thanks to its single-point attachment, the swing moves smoothly back and forth and even in gentle circular patterns. It’s relaxing, fun, and versatile—perfect for kids of all ages.
