Post by: l7ttledevil on August 14, 2006, 05:46:54 PM: All it means is that there are certain boundaries for each model, the springs are more resistant and basically if your too light for your spring you won't compress it properly but too heavy and you'll compress it too easily.

I weigh 72kg and went for the m70.

If you tell me your weight i'll find the chart which says the boundaries of each model and get back to you, PM me if your worried about saying ur weight on the forum.

The stilts will mot likely be too stiff for you. You should alway buy the correct pair for your weight, If you buy a pair for lighter people then your springs will be too springy, and if you buy a pair for heavier people your springs will not be springy enough.
