JD Bug Kids Swayer Balance Board

Product Information

JD Bug are one of the founding fathers of the scooter industry and specialise in folding scooters. Most of the JD Bug scooters we sell are for younger children and are more aimed at recreational use, however JD Bug do also have a range of stunt scooters. This sit-down ride-on scooter is perfect for helping kids to develop motor skills, balance and coordination. Used correctly and safely this is an excellent alternative to a scooter and will see the kids having hours and hours of fun. JD Bug are an industry leader in children's mobility products, reknowned for manufacturing innovative products that deliver fun and exciting, but also safe and educational experiences to children.

Spring-loaded rear-wheel brakes allow the rider to bring the scooter to a slow and controlled stop, so you won’t have to worry about your little one’s flying off the scooter if they brake too fast.The plastic seat is secured to a durable iron frame. These also act as handlebars and a foot rest. To enjoy the JD Bug Swayer for longer, the iron frame adjusts and grows with your child. With a fully adjustable handlebar height, you’re able to extend the handlebars up to 950mm, so instead of buying a new scooter when your child gets taller, you’re simply able to adjust the JD Bug Scooter to fit them. The new and upgraded, high quality plastic seat of the JD Bug Swayer is now bigger and better, making it a more comfortable ride for users! The seats sits only 120mm off the floor giving the Swayer a really low centre of gravity. The seat is also deep moulded and designed to hold your child securely when in use.

Four, swing action wheels are perfectly positioned to give the JD Bug Swayer stability and easy manoeuvrability. The JD Bug Kidz Swayer is a carving scooter that has four wheels, a seat and leaves you sitting only 12cm from the ground, giving the rider a low centre of gravity and a completely different and unique scooter experience. It is suitable for children 3 to 12 years old with a maximum rider weight of 50kgs (110lbs / 8 stones). However, we then like to go a little deeper to explore more detail about the product by looking at products in the same category as JD Bug Kids Swayer Balance Board. That then tells us that there are 6359 products in the Outdoor Toys category at Skatehut.JD Bug Scooters launched in the early 2000s when foldable scooters first became popular alongside the Micro brand. JD Bug Scooters feature a number of things that make them perfect for taking around and for easy transport. Firstly, the scooters are easily foldable, meaning you can store then neatly of carry them when not in use. A number of the scooters come with carry straps, again allowing you to transport the scooter easily when not in use. They're all built to last, using high grade metals, meaning that your JD Bug should last a few years if looked after properly. A number of the models also come with adjustable handlebar height. This is great for growing kids, where the scooters need to be used by different people, and for modification to the way you like to ride your scooter. I can’t say for sure how good and fun the JD Bug Kidz Swayer is to ride as unfortunately I’m too big and heavy to have a go, but I can tell you that the kids both say that they love it, and it is lots of fun to ride (the smiles on their face support this) and both give it a massive thumbs up. Riding the Swayer does take a bit of getting used to. To ride, you sit on the seat (strong and durable moulded plastic seat), put your feet in front of you on the handlebars, hold on to the handlebar grips and then “swing” the handlebar left / right to get moving. It does take some practice, especially trying not to put your feet on the ground and run along like you are driving a Fred Flintstone car, you need to sway from side to side. Once you get the hang of the swaying movement of the handlebars it really is easy to manoeuvre and because the rider is sitting only 12cm off the ground the lower centre of gravity makes it a very stable ride. The Swayer can be used indoors (if you have the room and smooth floors, it doesn’t work on carpets) or outdoors (make sure that you follow the safety guidance).
