skywalkerstilts.jpgMarshalltown, a manufacturer of all sorts of industrial products like drywall stilts and plastering tools has a new line of high-tech drywall stilts now available called SkyWalker Stilts.

SkyWalker 2.0 Stilts support up to 225 lbs and have a neat adjustable spring suspension system that makes walking on the stilts feel as natural as...well, NOT walking on stilts. Marshalltown claims that this feature of the SkyWalkers makes them easy to use for beginner or seasoned pros. Plus, the springs almost look like laces on a shoe. Come to think of it, the entire bottom of these stilts has an almost "cyborg foot" feel. 

The height of the stilts is easy to adjust thanks to the Skywalker Stilts "flip-n-switch" feature. They are also one size fits all thanks to a three way ratcheting system allows Skywalker Stilts to easily be fit to any size leg.

Marshalltown SkyWalker 2.0 Stilts are apparently the next step in the evolution of drywall stilts, a tool that seemed like it would have hit it's plateau. They are available in two models: the SkyWalker SW218 scales from 18-30" and the SkyWalker SW224 scales from 24-40"

As luck would have it, both the 2.0 and 1.0 versions of Marshalltown SkyWalker Stilts are now available from ToolKing.com
