Were you supposed to hang from these by your hands or was something attached to them?

it does look as if you had to do that, but its hard to jump that high and it doesnt look like it lowers any...

Was this in a dried up pool by chance? I ask this because back in the 20's they used to have these kinds of things in Lake Michigan and people would hold on and their feet would skim on to of the water.

In Lake Michigan I think they would swim out to a platform that hung under a couple (or all) of the swings and climb up. Then they could move the platform or lower it so they could skim across the top of the water. I've only seen some very old grainy pics of them. Anyways, still dangerous as far as the rides went in the 20's.

My guess would be some chairs were attached to them and it spun you around.

Look at the previous pic. There are mounting spots towards the outter sides of each of the triangles and I'd bet the pic earlier in this series with the 2 chaisr 1 labeled 2 the other labelled 12 would be part of this item. This I'm betting is the Jap version of the American Yo Yo ride.
