New life for my old board

I loved my old Byerly Monarch, so when they changed the bolt patterns and my new boots didn't fit I really didn't know what to do with it. Now my board has a new life. So what do you do with your old favorites?

thats freakin sick!! love it!! i always wanted to do the bench thing but unfortunately you need two boards for that and im still on my second. saving the first one though for when it happens. i go through snowboards much faster but they are always beat so bad by the time im done with them it isnt worth using them for a bench :(

good job.

That is a big swing. Looks like you could jump on your neighbor's roof!

Building one asap! Brilliant Idea!

Rob ~ Have you tried any of the new BIG boards from Slingshot yet? Seen the thread and thought of you and your over 6' self.

Are those anchors screwed into the inserts or all the way through the board? I've ripped out so many inserts that it would scare me to rig it up that way!

Dude! I love it. That is happening at my house.

You know what happens when the kids go to bed and you have some people over
"Hold my beer!"

I hear that! I was thinking of "T" bolting the one I am going to make.

I keep seeing images of that swinging back with nobody on it and catching a 3 year old square in the teeth... I love that thing for adults or older kids, but be careful if youngsters come by.

good job.

You don't have to have two boards for the bench. Here's the one made. Just took the back off of the bench and replaced it with an old board I cracked. Plastidipped it too because the sun took a toll on after a year or two of sitting on the patio.

Good point but, dang that looks fun. That is one seriously tall swing.
