on the juniors its said to be able to get to 4 ft in the air which for a small person is alot these stilts may be smaller but if you can get the right spring weight and enough power you can do all th tricks the adult ones can do

since ive been disabled from bocking for a while ive been looking up on them and ive heard from many forums that these are like circus toys  :thumbs:

but hey circus toys are fun and keep you fit :biggrin: (well did  :nana:)

The most I've seen someone do on kids ones is about 2ft and in over 2 years i've never heard of, let alone seen, anyone flip on the kids model.
Wait for him to grow a foot then get him the adult model, he'll be much happier with them.

Never seen that, thanks Naz!
But he doesn't LAND it, he lands on his ass and then pushes himself up, I'm assuming thats why it's sped up to make it look as if he landed it.

If you ask me, pushing himself up onto his feet from a seated position is even better than a front flip!!! :o
Everyone's dreams sit aloft a rungless ladder. Some ladders are higher than others. Some are so tall they reach high above the clouds - but everyone can see their dream. Most people see that their ladder has no rungs and although they may talk about climbing it one day, seeing no way to get there, they eventually give up and settle for what lies beneath it.
      The brave however, the wise, the imaginative and the strong of will seek out their missing rungs. They learn all they can about the ladder, they surround themselves with friends and family who would also find the rungs, and failing all else they craft the steps themselves with their own two hands from nothing. Sometimes a rung breaks and the person falls. Some of these people will fall too hard and lose the strength to climb again - Yet they feel comfort in knowing they tried. They became better for it. And they experienced things and witnessed sights upon the climb that those who sat forever beneath it will never know.
      Then there are the special few who find new steps, or fix and climb again the ones that failed. Who eventually, through sheer tenacity and courage come to reach the final rung - Only they will have their dreams fulfilled. The extraordinary then build new ladders. These are the strongest people of all.

Also he doesn't recover it, he hits the wall, his legs are all over.
But then the only time I flip is if I slipped over  :laugh:
