Super Skamper-Ramp Info

The Super Skamper-Ramp was developed because so many customers asked for a solution that was easier to assemble, was even safer for vinyl-lined pools, would work for frequent use by most any sized animal including for very large pets, and could also be used on floating docks and even for some boats.

With those challenges in mind, along with our original intent - as a KISS (Keep It Simple Solution) to an age-old problem, animal water drowning - we came up with an engineered, blowmolded polyethylene piece that snaps together - we've removed the need for nuts and bolts - and can be used with, or without, its extension.

 Besides working to provide escape from water entrapment for unwanted animals and pets, it can be used more frequently and stand up to the regular use. Just like it's polymer cousin, polypropylene, this Super Skamper-Ramp will not yellow, become scummy, grow barnacles, or mildew when left in water (salt water, fresh water, pool water...) because it is UV- and chemical-resistant. The  Super Skamper-Ramp is lightweight with excellent strength-to-weight ratios, low-cost, and simple. It attaches to the deck of the pool, walled pond, stock tank or water trough to prevent unwanted wild animals from drowning as well as pets!
 
Because all living beings see white, animals can see it—day or night—and, even if they can't use a step (ducklings, snakes, baby possums), they can "skamper" out of the water on the ramp by themselves.  Dogs are the only animals that have to be "trained" to the ramp...see our suggestions here.

Applications
Super Skamper-Ramp is versatile enough for infrequent or frequent use by most any size animal in pools (commercial or private), walled ponds, reservoirs, most docks, many boats. It was designed for emergency escape--that is still its purpose--but it was also designed to hold larger animals and better protect vinyl pools. It can be used with, or without, snapping in the extension.

 Even in winter, leaving it hanging down inside a pool that is partially drained down, under a winter cover, or on top of a non-permeable cover, can prevent accidental animal drowning by giving them an escape route.

Features

• The Super Skamper-Ramp is a blowmolded, white polyethylene assembly, recyclable, chemical- and UV-resistant, with nylon rope, washers, and non-rusting D-ring-clips for attaching.
• It snaps together but needs to be mounted to the pool deck, walled pond/canal/bulkhead, or floating dock.
• While it was designed for emergency escape it will withstand more frequent use, even the weights of very large pets and animals.
