1st not quite 5 foot, but pretty hi
yes u can front flip on um
'little' how little? how tall quite critical on the divide between junior/adult model more so than weight but nice to know that too
-
hes 124cm tall
-
on the juniors its said to be able to get to 4 ft in the air which for a small person is alot these stilts may be smaller but if you can get the right spring weight and enough power you can do all th tricks the adult ones can do
since ive been disabled from bocking for a while ive been looking up on them and ive heard from many forums that these are like circus toys :thumbs:
but hey circus toys are fun and keep you fit :biggrin: (well did :nana:)
-
he was happy to hear that they were a circus skill lol
thanks for the replies
-
Glad you havent lost your sense of humor in all of this aiden :thumbs:

The most I've seen someone do on kids ones is about 2ft and in over 2 years i've never heard of, let alone seen, anyone flip on the kids model.
Wait for him to grow a foot then get him the adult model, he'll be much happier with them.
-
It's been done!
One of the lads that bocks with No fear on the kids model has flipped using the junior model, I think theres video evidence somewhere to :)

edit:found the vid!

Never seen that, thanks Naz!
But he doesn't LAND it, he lands on his ass and then pushes himself up, I'm assuming thats why it's sped up to make it look as if he landed it.
-
Not sure but i know his landed it more than once.
-
If you ask me, pushing himself up onto his feet from a seated position is even better than a front flip!!! :o
-
With speed and only juniors it wouldn't be that hard, i can flick myself from my knees to standing on juniors ;)

I could too, without using my hands :nana:
-
:nana:yeah, bt hes a kid (no offense, its better than me) but it looks as if he turns it into a roll to me, but either way hes better than me lol

Also he doesn't recover it, he hits the wall, his legs are all over.
But then the only time I flip is if I slipped over :laugh:
