Our airplane and motorcycle spring riders are made from sturdy Rotomolded polyethylene, which is known for its durability and resistance to weather. The bright colors are eye-catching and designed to resist fading over time. Both the airplane and motorcycle come equipped with enclosed rubber springs to prevent pinching and ensure a smooth ride for children. Heat-applied decals are used for added durability and resistance to fading, ensuring the equipment will look great for years to come.
The airplane measures 9 inches from the ground to the seat, 15 inches from the bottom to the top of the cabin, and is 36 inches from front to back. Meanwhile, the motorcycle stands at 18 inches from the ground to the seat, 25 inches from the bottom to the top of the handles, and is 35 inches from front to back. The plate measures 10 inches square with a center-to-center distance of 8.25 inches.

Regardless of lower heat transfer properties, plastic play equipment can still become hot enough ‐‐ in extreme temperatures and direct sunlight ‐‐ to cause burns. Plastic slides are safe, tried and true, but as is the case with all playground equipment, parents and supervisors must monitor the children in their care, make certain that the equipment is appropriate for their age, and always check playground surfaces for excessive heat before allowing children to play.
