Springers
It’s all rock and roll
They called it crazy, but it was anything but mad. The Crazy Hen, a KOMPAN invention, started a playground revolution. Like many great ideas, the springer system is incredibly simple. A single ultra-strong flexible steel coil, securely held in a sunken foundation, has been the inspiration for a universal playground classic. Frequently copied, never bettered.
The child always has control of the spring, but whether it houses a Kangaroo, a Bobcat or a Scooter, it is an adventure, developing independence and a chance to show ‘what I can do.’ It’s not all solo fun, on the Water Lilies, there’s room for three friends, and the challenge of competitive sharing.
From the Crazy Hen in the 1970’s the springer family hasn’t stopped growing, there are now over 30 variations on the common theme, rock and roll fun.
