Family Forum / Parenting / Parenting / January 2006skateboardish attachment for a stroller
When I lived in New York, I often saw older siblings riding on the backs of strollers -- they stood on little boards, like mini skateboards, that attached to the backs. Does anyone know what those boards are called, and where to get one? I have a Maclaren Triumph stroller, a few years old.

And they cost $80, so so much for that.

It's hard to imagine they would have continued manufacturing the defective product. Best wishes, Ericka >> > Does anyone know what those boards are called, and where to get one?

I was gonna say, you ought to try it out first. I tried it out at BRU because I thought it was a neat idea, but it was difficult to push without also getting something to extend the handlebars. > I was gonna say, you ought to try it out first.

I do have some handle extenders around here somewhere, left over from our previous stroller. (We're tall in this family. We have such things.)

Might or might not have been intended for the purpose. Just a horizontal bar on the stroller. Kids' tricyles have something like that. > When I lived in New York, I often saw older siblings riding on the backs > of strollers -- they stood on little boards, like mini skateboards, that > attached to the backs. > > Does anyone know what those boards are called, and where to get one?

I got the seat'ngo, where they can sit on-it looks like 2 steps. It cost about £40. It fits fine on my Maclaren Techno stroller (and fitted on my sadly deceased Triumph). Takes more getting used to than the plain buggy boards, but much better when your child's tired and whingy. Debbie |
