Title: Adult or Junior?
Post by: birthdaypresent on September 25, 2007, 05:59:46 PM

I want to buy some pro-jump jumping stilts for my son's birthday.  He will be 13 and weighs approximately 7.5 stone.  Should I go for the junior 60kg or the adult 60kg.  How do they differ?

Many thanks for your help.

can you give us his size, ie height? If he 'fits the frame' go for adults

There is no comparission between the 2 really. And I would also say there is a 'dead zone' where neither version is any good ( you just have to wait and grow into them).

Id say at 13 if not too big will be too'old' for the junior kit.

I'm not too sure of his height . . .  I'll have to measure him.  Thanks for your help though.

May fit an adult model, knee bar is adjustable, 60 kgs should be fine! But do measure!!

I'm about the same weight, i'm not very tall(5ft 2) and I have the adult model. I did start with the junior ones though so it was easier to get used to the larger, heavier model.
