Title: Running with ProJumps
Post by: OzzMosiz on November 08, 2006, 12:14:47 PM
Just curious how fast you can run with ProJumps, and how much easier it is than normal (after balancing is mastered). Can anyone comment?

one of the inventers says ho can rou around 25mph

this may take some time to build up to it :o

but if any one wants to have a go there is a nice big hill with a speed camra at the bottom can we set it of  :) :) :)

ps its set at 30 mph

I bought my projumps to run in daily...aswell as the fun factor.
I find I can jog in them for a while but its going to take a while before i can do 2 miles in them.

I also find I have a slight twist on my right leg which can cause my springs to lightly bang when i'm running if I lose concentration and I need to work on that or its going to put me off and cause a fall.

I got reflective tape and led's to go on them too since I might be out on the road.

I've heard of people claiming they can sprint at 25mph elsewhere. I dont think its too far fetched to be honest, just take experience and fitness.
