Pro-Jump 2009 - testing the new stilts...



A short clip showing John and Ian of Pro-Jump 101 in action. John is using the new 2009 model we are currently testing. The new jumping stilts, use a new frame design and a new spring. John usually uses 95kg stilts, the new spring is rated 85kg so well below what he is used to.

A big thank you to spud for the final cut & youtube friendly music.

Give it a few mins or so as it may still be processing.

Nice to see John can push them pretty far, look like they're holding up quite nicely but he doesn't seem as confident on them as on the 2008 generations, just looking at him jumping normally... And I still find that bend in the crosspiece worrying.

Thanks for your feedback :)

His clocked up quite a lot of hours on them over the last month and so far no breaks, which is fantastic considering with the Elites faults were showing up straight away! He has being pushing them quite a lot and this is just a snippet of the footage but it was a pain to edit so I kept it short and finally got it up thanks to spud.

We should start testing the aluminium version next week as well :)

Looking good.
I love the little kid was so sweet joining in best him :)

But can I just say on a safety piont that chasing a car on public road isn't the best idea ?

That maybe, but there's better ways to show speed.
If he slipped, he could fall infront of a car, and car driver it could be put off thier driving.
