Title: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: webmaster on May 06, 2010, 05:54:55 PM
Hey All

As some of you have been aware the Pro-Jump Prototypes have been in testing now for some time. Overall feedback & testing has gone really well and we are thinking that they may be ready to sell soon.

You can see them in action
http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=2079
http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=2081
http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=2082

Now some of the members will be aware that a new type of bocks are long overdue, and they are referred to as elites, Olympics, Up-Wings and so on but we think it would be better to give them a Unique name to avoid any confusion and that's where you all come in - get your creative heads on and make some suggestions plz

Looking forward to all your suggestions :)

Whatever you do don't name them Bocks or anything relating to bocks, keep that name free of branding.
Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: spawnyb on May 06, 2010, 11:54:46 PM
Are you looking for a memorable name that's striking such as:

Pro-Jump Predators, Raptors, Cobras, Scorpions, Falcons


or something that is more descriptive to signify the top of the range like:

Pro-Jump Flairs, Premiers, Pinnacles, Revolutions, Xtremes

So many names......

Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: spawnyb on May 07, 2010, 01:05:17 PM
I quite like both of those Locky.

Along the same lines as something, we could always call then Pro-Jump WTFs?
Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: Nero on May 07, 2010, 04:23:27 PM

Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: wolf on May 07, 2010, 05:32:41 PM

I don't really mind what they end up being called.
Are there any ideas on prices or weight catagories there will be?
Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: Samarka on May 09, 2010, 06:52:15 AM
Pro Jump Flites?

Play on words, flight coz you jump around on em and "lite" like they do sometimes for diet brands but because these are supposed to be much lighter.

The word Flite should of course be in suitable italic or other such flowing script. So on the box it would be more "PRO-JUMP Flites"
Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: miky10 on May 09, 2010, 10:04:25 AM
Call them :

Pro-Jump Skywing
Pro-Jump Professional  :Ctwitcy:
Pro-Jump Predator
Pro-Jump Rockstrike
Pro-Jump Phoenix
Pro-Jump Alufox
Pro-Jump Brave
Pro-Jump Thunder
Pro-Jump Art

I prefer Skywing, Phoenix and Alufox  :Cwink:

Hope you like it  :Cbiggrin:

Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010

Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: Locky on May 10, 2010, 11:20:43 AM
Its a bit silly but how about Projump Tec or something?

The new design makes them look sleek and futuristic compared to whats currently on sale so it would be good to have a name that fits.
Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: Jason on May 10, 2010, 09:20:08 PM
I always had a soft spot for Ermintrude and Dillon Q

That Rabbit was so laid back it was unreal  :Cbiggrin:

Agreed Locky

so how about

PJ Cyborg
Or maybe PJ Psyborg to make it different and mess with your head
PJ Android

But I still like

E-X-O   :Cbiggrin:  just sound so cool

Jason  :Hoofies2: :CGEEK:

I'm with Q, Zebedee was great. The original bocker! But don't forget Doogle!  :Claugh:

Back to the stilts...
Still think a simple number is the way to go.  Pro-Jump 10's
Easy to remember.
Easy to up-grade.
Less ink on the ads.
Takes less space taken on the box.
And it works for BMW!
Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: Josh T on May 11, 2010, 05:40:17 PM

                       Projump Aggressors

Post by: Joe Legg on May 26, 2010, 08:24:04 PM
I really like the look of these stilts so I put some thought into the name and come up with 2.

pro jump up-Force     (because of the hight it gives you)

pro jump Nova          (a nova is a star that releases a tremendous burst of energy, very much like the stilts) my favourite.

Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: toddy on May 26, 2010, 09:25:04 PM
well i do have to say they are nice  :Cnotworthy:

and i think they should be called pro jump jason proff   :Claugh:

but other than that, i would prob go for

Pro Jump Bull (they release the power of the bull  :Ctongue:)
Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: Locky on May 26, 2010, 10:01:15 PM
I'm going to turn this one on its head.


Naz, what do you and/or the PJ team think for names?
Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: dark-castles2 on May 26, 2010, 10:26:48 PM
Hmmm.... I like Joe's idea... 'Nova' :D

Post by: webmaster on May 26, 2010, 11:13:46 PM
To be honest, I haven't thought about it much as I just wanted to ensure the product was nice. I was thinking Pro-Jump Curve but that's only because when I try to explain what the new model looks like with a pic I sorta refer to the curved part as that's what makes it visually different to others on the market
Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: dark-castles2 on May 26, 2010, 11:45:46 PM
When is the date for release then Naz? I have got several people wanting to buy them when they go on sale :P including me :D

Post by: Nero on May 27, 2010, 07:59:38 AM
i think exo is the best suggestion so far
Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: Jason on May 27, 2010, 09:19:14 PM
Locky and Nero both like a name I suggested I must be slipping  :Claugh:

So to put that straight I think they should be called

Projumpies, Skipies, Leapies or Jumpies  :Claugh:

No only joking still like XO, EXO, E-XO or any mix  :Cbiggrin:

Jason  :Hoofies2: :CGEEK:

Ps How about The E-XO Curve or Curve XO  :Cbiggrin: (Crawl Crawl)

Post by: Locky on May 27, 2010, 10:02:48 PM
Projump EX-O - it just has a nice ring to it.

It's cool but it has authority :) I'm probably getting that from the Executive Officer acronym but I still like it. It means business.
Title: Re: PRO-JUMP 2010
Post by: Nero on May 28, 2010, 08:34:42 AM
yeah, and it could be said its a reference to exo skeletons, which can help people walk and such, PJ EXO ftw
