Hi Adam, welcome to the forums.
Where abouts in the uk are you? Maybe we can find someone close to you to let you have a quick go.
My first 5 mins on my projumps was very scary. Like you I had wanted them so badly and I strapped them on and I couldnt even stand up without having a wall or something to hold on to. But no need to worry as your body quickly adjust to the new height and the balance needed and within 30 mins I could walk unaided on them ( alittle clumsy at first but you learn very quickly). Within a day I was starting to run.

im in kings lynn thats east aglia norfolk i would love to have a go on a pair first ;D
-
well thats a million miles from me since im in south wales and i cant see anyone close to you on the members map but not everbody has marked their place on the map.
If you've got the money then bite the bullet and get them, I cant imagine you wont get the hang of things and if you dont then sell them on ebay!

Hi Adam answer to your question is that they are the easyest thing's to get used to asoon as uve been on them for about 30 mins they just feel like extention of the legs and becomes jsut a natural thing i think u should do what matt has said and bite the bullet and go for it and i bet you £50 you will be able to walk on them after 2 days at the max! :thumbs:

Hey Adam. I live in Ely, its only about half an hour on the train.
I'd be happy to give you a go on mine mate.
Trust me, they are easy, my friend had his first go on Saturday, after about 3 hours, he was jumping quite high, and now hes got his own pair.
Once you get used to the feel of them, you will be fine. A good bocking sesision is what you need.
But PM me n we can sort summin out if you wana come to ely nad have a go!
