ROPE SWING CAUTION

Click here to see our home page and learn about swimming holes in other states

Rope swings are great fun and pretty much assure that you enter the water feet-first not head-first, which is good, but:

  • Wet hands and wet ropes can be a slippery combination - make sure you have a good grip on the rope.
  • Just above a knot is a good place to hold onto the rope.
  • Be sure it is deep enough below and there are no hidden rocks.
  • If there are any loops in the rope, NEVER put your hand or foot or any other part of your body in the loop - Youtube - just hold on with your hands.
  • Especially for children - make sure they know that they HAVE TO LET GO and cannot swing back on the rope where they will very likely hit something.
