Jumping stilts = Awesome

[randomer3]

Anybody else got a pair of these:

I've had a couple pairs over around 3 years and love them, I know quite a few other people with them and some of these people are also into lasers so I thought there might be a link.

If your wondering "WTF ARE THEY?" here is a video from last weekend when I met up with some mates in Cardiff, England:
YouTube - Welsh Bockers and Jurassic Jumpers: Powerbocking

And of course the bails video:
YouTube - Randomness, Stupidity and Bails

So has anybody else got a pair of these or am I the only crazy one?

High tech version of the cartoon style "springs-under-the-shoes", LOL !

Wondering if they can hold my 100 Kg without collapse (i'm 1,90 LOL)

I used to use these (and a more "stable" full foot model) way back when I was in construction (before 1987). Stilts are much faster than a scaffold :wave:

The materials were a bit more primitive (and a lot more stiff), but they've been around a long time.

Peace,

Those vids were awesome, but as for your question, no, i don't own a pair. I have wanted to try this for sometime now ever since i got my first pogo stick

You get different weight springs, so the stiffness varies depending how heavy you are.
Most brands have models upto 120kg, if you want more info shoot me a pm.

Those vids were awesome

Yeah, really sums up the weekend, I'm the guy in the white t-shirt and the grey boardshorts, in the first video i'm the guy in the 2nd and 3rd clip.
