PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT | X-Waves | Child's death on playground

NATIONAL - Many school districts have rushed to remove or are considering removal of teeter-totter-like playground equipment called X-Waves after a 9-year-old girl was fatally injured while playing on one.  Those that have not been removed have been temporarily fenced off.

The X-Wave's manufacturer, Xccent, "refused to discuss" the matter. The X-Waves look like three teeter-totters joined end to end by a flexible polymer material that allows the bench seats to go up and down without pinching.
