Questions & Answers
While the board I was given was 12'' wide at least, it was only 7 1/2' or 7 3/4' long. The width is slightly less than eight feet. There were two 6'' bolts on each side of the board. From Home Depot I had to purchase similar 7'' ones (about $6 apiece). The bolts would have been fine with a diameter of 6 1/2 inches.
As well as the diving board, it includes the bolts, nuts, and washers you need to mount the diving There is no fulcrum pad included in this kit.
Assemble the board with the bolts provided
I am pretty sure it is 250 pounds.

R. I. Smith & G. Glaser I will hide my 8' Jump Board. QUALITY AND VALUE AT ITS BEST! Our jump board (or diving board, as most of us call it) was installed when our pool was built in 1983, and it's still in use 28 years later! In spite of the warranty only lasting three years, this was quite impressive! We took good care of it during the Ohio winter by removing it from the property and storing it properly. As a replacement, I just ordered another one so it can serve our family of 4 and guests even better. One thing I love about this board is the way it is solid and covered in edges In order to prevent easy chipping of the outer coating during installation, storage, and removal, the edge must be rounded. It looks great in use now and it is in great condition. I like the way this board springs, it's not too stiff, but it's not too soft either. I just got it I have it sitting on a cantilever jump stand and it looks good and works perfectly. Our customers will continue to be happy about both S and our new board as long as it lasts as long as our old one did. I am Smith and I am I found Amazon to have the best price out of every website I checked (and I checked A LOT of websites) PLUS free shipping (and this is a heavy board). If two people won't be available upon delivery to help carry this dude, you might want to hire them to help you. It only has a weight limit of 250 pounds, and that's the only con that I can think of. I would not recommend this, but we've had some pretty good results with them over the past few years. All except the Frontier IV commercial board are rated for over 250, and the Frontier IV commercial board cannot be accommodated on our existing stand. In the past, we have used our board for high school football players, and it performed superbly. A great deal of quality, look, and price can all be found in this board. My opinion is that this is an outstanding value! Amazon and S, it has been my pleasure to do business with you both once again.
I am loving the look of our new site! I am very pleased with the diving board. It is very sturdy and well made. This was so much better than I had hoped! Our company was able to save money by having a powder coating place re-coat the existing base instead of buying a new one In a coating. We now have a brand new diving board, which makes everything look great!.
Despite the fact that I winterized it every year or two after the first few, I didn't winterize it after that. There were a lot of kids and adults who used it. Although the board could still be used, it developed cracks on the bottom after a while. After 23 years, the liner needed to be changed, and we decided to put on a new board. The only thing I hope is that Despite the change in standards, Smith's principles remain the same. Having said that, this board does come with mounting hardware, which I will use to winterize it.
Quite pleased with the ease of installation and the quality of the new hardware. Brass nuts are used and the screws have plastic covers as shown on the picture. If the company permits I will update the review.
The board arrived in perfect condition. Getting the old bolts out of the base and old board was the hardest part of the project. The new board took 10 minutes to install. Approximately fifteen Throughout recent years, kids have used excessively.
A week earlier, I placed the order and it had arrived in less time. In terms of shipping damage protection, the overpackaging method they use is invaluable. Until summer 2012, the unit will not be used , but since I have had their boards for over 40 years, I should be able to use it with no This purchase was handled with excellent customer service.
EITHER WAY WE CHOOSE THE SAME GLASS The board we started with will remain hidden. Having the bolts replaced with stainless steel will be a big help, since the original bolts are plated steel, which turns into rusty balls over time. Aside from rebuilding and painting my springs and stand, I also repainted my stand. FOR THE SPRINGS, I got 5/8 INCHES of stainless steel with NYLON LOCK NUTS, and for the mount bolts, I got 1/2 INCHES of stainless steel. The stainless hardware looks so much better than conventional hardware.
This easy-to-replace board fits perfectly into the SR Smith I have had for 40 years. Purchased the board and mounting bolts, everything was included in the purchase and received and installed within a week of completing the order. This board is very pleasing to the eye, feels good and is of excellent quality.
