Title: WOOHOO!!!!
Post by: Nobby on June 18, 2008, 12:09:57 PM: They're here at last! It's lunchtime and I just picked up my new PJs from the post office.No try out yet,that'll have to wait until I finish work! My cat's very curious as to what they are and is having great fun hopping in and out of the box.He can already jump 3 times his own height so has no need of bocks! I can't wait 'til 5 o'clock!!!! :banana: :banana:

Don't bock in doors if the fall you'll more likely hit the table than the sofa !
Hope you have safety pads too !

And lastly HAPPY BOCKING :biggrin: :Straddle5:

Post by: Nobby on June 18, 2008, 06:38:12 PM: Just spent the past 20 minutes walking backwards and forwards in my bedroom on my bocks.Gonna lower the knee bars a bit ,I can't kneel down 'cos they won't let me bend my legs! Took me a minute or 2 to get my balance and as long as I can get off the deck once I've adjusted the bars I'm off outside!!! How much fun is this?!!! :thumbs: :banana: DK,ta for the advice.I got pads and wrist guards. No bouncing yet though,no point in trying to run before I can walk.

Post by: Nobby on June 18, 2008, 08:30:07 PM: I've been out in the yard for an hour!!! I'm really hot, phew! :biggrin: I seem to be able to balance well,walking's easy,jogging takes a little more concentration and I even managed a bit of bouncing! I'm puffed and chuffed!!! I fell over just once. Stilts feel a bit wobbly but I think that's because I walk toe in a smidge and one of them's a little sqeaky.Great fun!!! :biggrin: :thumbs:

Post by: Nobby on June 22, 2008, 07:29:25 PM: Pro Jumps are probably the most fun a human being can have with his or her clothes on! Had them a few days now. I fell over last night face first and then proceeded to drag my sorry ass off the deck....I couldn't get up 'cos I was laughing so much! :biggrin: I ache all over but I'm not sure if that's from falling,working muscles I didn't know I had or giggling me tits off!!! :biggrin: :biggrin:
