Self-Righting Jumping Hurdle: Off-Centre Pivoted Swing Between Two Standards (Boy Mechanic, 1915)
C. C. Fraser's hurdle from The Boy Mechanic, Book 2 (1915): a 36 by 18 in swing hung on long nails slightly off centre between two standards joined by a reach. It turns at the slightest touch of the jumper's foot and rights itself again.

Hang the swing
Hang the swing
Bore a hole in each standard large enough for a long nail to turn freely but too small for its head to pass, and hang the swing on the nails at its ends, slightly off centre, so it swings at a touch and rights itself.
