FlybarSuper Pogo Pogo Stick for Kids and Adults 14 & Up Heavy Duty for Weights 120-210 Lbs

We are an active family. I try my hardest to get my kids outside for fun and games--not always the easiest thing in this day of video games, computers and texting. As a consequence, we have all sorts of goofy fun things around the house: kick sleds, bikes, scooters, tree swings, stilts--and pogo sticks.We own three pogos: The Super Pogo 1505, the Flybar Foam Master, and the Flybar Foam Maverick. Each one has it's place in our pogo stick stable.Without a doubt, the Super Pogo is the most advanced pogo stick. It's great for big kids (at least 100 lbs) and both my husband and I can bounce it for long periods of time (we are both over 200 lbs). It's comfortable. It's fun.The only negatives: after over a year of use, the metal face plate fell off (we reattached it... but it's purely cosmetic); after 2 years of use, a neighbor kid hit the grass while bouncing and sucked out the rubber tip. I'm now online looking for the replacement since you can't use it without that tip.This has given us many, many hours of fun. It's the most competitive of the pogos we own. It's more aggressive, more comfortable and more adult.The Foam Maverick is great for my youngest--who is unable to get any of the other pogos bouncing due to her size and weight (she is 9 years old, about 75 lbs). The Foam Master was originally purchased for my now 13 year old, but it wasn't aggressive enough for her as she bottomed out on it right away. We find that it works great for friends who are more hesitant bouncers and/or who aren't big/heavy enough to use the Super Pogo.Katie (the 13 year old) is AMAZING on powerstilts (sometimes called jumping stilts, like those here: http://www.amazon.com/Poweriser-Jumping-Stilt-Classic-198-266/dp/B002IAO8M6/ref=sr_1_16?ie=UTF8&qid=1369948237&sr=8-16&keywords=stilts She still loves bouncing on her pogo though. All 3 of my kids (ages 9, 13, 16) can bounce for well over 200 hops before stopping. It's a great workout and it's FUN!

Son loves this. A little stiff for an 11 year old, but he keeps working at it. It is large and a little heavy, but my son is really tall for his age. He is always jumping around.

My daughter was set on ordering a pogo stick for her dad after he said he couldn’t go on hers because he exceeded the weight limit. Came across this and decided to buy it. Husband weighs about 200 pounds and was able to use this for an extended period (my daughter and him had a pogo stick competition 😂). I tried it too. It’s a lot of fun! Works like it should!

Love it. If you love your bone be careful. My kids love theirs. Is a good quality toy.

Amazing option for an adult or large large child. Got this for my stepdad (170lbs) and the whole family loves to bring it out at functions. We range from 120lbs to 180lbs and everyone can use it without it hitting the bottom. Wouldn’t recommend for someone who does flips and things - i don’t think it would be ideal for that. But for your average pogo-er it’s perfect

I'm 43 and this is nothing like the weak pogo stick my little brother had when I was a kid. I surprised everyone in the family (even myself) when I ordered it. When it arrived, I discovered I had the Gravity Games version, which I think looks better because it isn't red. It was fully assembled, too. The spring was so stiff, I was afraid to get on it at first but I took it to my little brother's house and we had a blast with it. You won't catch me doing any extreme tricks at my age, but it's plenty fun just to bounce around and try to stay bouncing. Indoors, I use it as an exerciser by just trying to balance on it. It's quite a workout. Don't let the stiff spring intimidate you, once you start bouncing, you will appreciate it. I've already had so much fun with this pogo stick, it paid for itself on the first day. (The looks on people's faces when they see a grown man bouncing on a pogo stick make it even more fun.) It is well constructed and I expect it to last a long time. But like I said, I won't be doing any extreme tricks with it. If you try hard enough, you can break just about anything. If you get too crazy with it or don't pay attention to what you are doing, you can hurt yourself too. I get enough of a rush just taking it easy.

I’m a few years away from 50, and for whatever reason I decided I want a pogo stick. Never tried it, ever. Wish I would have sooner. This thing is a blast and a heck of a work out.

I'd love to say this pogo stick works great, but the few flaws it has are deal breakers. Initially, I got the kid version for my wife because she's short and light and I thought it would work. Immediately upon receiving it though, I jumped on it and "stole" her present away. It was a very small contraption and I wanted to have more fun bouncing down memory lane so I got the adult version which is this model. It's built to last, very robust and with a tip that doesn't seem to erode over time. It's also taller so it's better for my 5'10" frame. HOWEVER the central column is too wide and if you don't place your feet on the edges of the pedals just right, then you will bang your knees guaranteed. It's terrible, you get these painful bruises real quick. I read some other reviews that said that they used duct tape to protect themselves, which seems a little archaic. Just make a better product! Well of course, if you use the exterior of these pedals to avoid the knee pain, be careful not to fall off it while using it. I really hurt my shin the other day and it bled bad. Now I look at this toy with very wary eyes. I want to play with it, but I can't, because I know it'll hurt me "sometime" in the future. Come on pogo stick company, read these reviews and improve your performance! Still, it's fun, dangerous fun...
