Title: Jumping over people!
Post by: Frumpet on January 08, 2007, 01:03:34 AM: Ok, has anyone jumped over a person yet?
I don't just mean like crouched or laying, I mean standing!
Cos earlier I was trying to jump over my mate Ben...well actually he was trying to run under me...but yeah anyways, we didn't end up doing it, largely due to my worn-out-ness.
Just wondering, has anyone actually succeeded at this yet?!
I was sorta split-jumping to get more height, seeing as there's 6 feet to get over!
When I do manage it, I'll post a pic in this months comp, hopefully it will look kinda cool!

You need to be very confident on your projumps before even thinking about something like that.

Post by: Athoul on May 03, 2007, 01:17:52 PM: I think they have been using these stilts for about 7 years now so it kinda explains why they are sooo good at it.

Anthon 3 years

Ola and Niklas have been jumping since between 6-5,5 years as well but have not been as active as the three first mentioned
