Wooden Stilts
Daddy Long Legs Workshop/beginner Stilts
are a brand new development. We were searching for a manufacturing method to create a low cost option yet not skimp on quality. These stilts are available for $150 and can be sent as a kit for group assembly. The uprights are solid Mahogany or Oak and the foot plate and gussets are CNC machined 7 ply Baltic Birch Marine Plywood. The “keyed” in foot plate adds incredible strength while maintaining an amazingly light weight feel. These are recommended for youth or beginners and can be safely used for casual stilt walking by anyone 140 lbs or lighter.
Daddy Long Legs Professional Wooden Stilts
are manufactured in a traditional laminated style from Poplar or an available hardwood stock that is a balance of light and sturdy such as Alder.
We initially created the 2ft. Daddy Long Legs Wooden Stilts for introductory and children’s workshops — and they are appropriate for non acrobatic use for adults.
We can customize length (up to 4 ft), weight capacity(up to 250lbs.), to accommodate just about anyone.
Wooden Stilts come sanded and ready to stain, paint or seal up as is, or with a basic water-based clear finish.
We can customize the finish on your stilts as well choose from our colors.
The knee plate is fitted the same as the Acrobatic Stilts.
Leg attachments are shown in the shin position or front of leg-some stilt walkers use a calf position or rear of leg. When filling out your leg measurement form, please specify if you want a calf plate otherwise they will come as shown. When we trim each pair of stilts to order we generally leave about 1 inch in order to change position of the shin/calf plate (see instructional for more details of how fitting your stilt works)
Wooden stilts eventually can break with consistent use but with attention to storage and occasionally polishing them up like furniture they will give you many years of use.
Cost is inclusive of shipping & handling in the continental U.S.
