I never really liked tire swings. I must have been a weird kid. But give me a swinging bench seat underneath a tree…well now, that was a different story!
The problem with tire swings is that they are full of water after it rains, unless you drill a hole in them. Most people to not. Has anyone seen the tires which are cut up and bent into horse shaped swings?
Our tyre swing hung sideways/4 ropes, two of us could fit at the same time. Piled on as many as 7 or 8 before some one got stoopy and started bouncing….

Not too worn out tires (watch out for steel fibers).

As opposed to a sturdy tire and a worn-out rope…

I’ve always wanted one but never had a tree tall enough or sturdy enough. My neighbor has a huge black walnut tree and I look at with envy.

Prefer metal chain swings—-you twist around as far as you can and then let go.You’re a human top

Wonder why the Gumbos are not growing young in this strip. It has all the contents of bliss applicable to childhood.

A clever thing to do with an old tire, but not the most comfortable swing.

Looks like there is a cure for the summertime blues.
