Title: New bocking game
Post by: Nero on May 29, 2009, 06:31:01 PM
ok so just to throw this out there we played a new game today.
how many bounces can you do without falling or stopping?
lil A-bomb done 100 and stopped because it was a nice number to beat, i had set the record at forty before that and then nearly had a heart attack at 70, what can you do?

hmm, doesn't seem like much fun dude, but sounds like a great workout. =)
You could do it like a game of ladders. By the way, let me know about the
next gym meet. I really wanna get my flips down soon. =)

You migt want to set a minimum height on that Nero before some Smart A** figures that you can call 1" a bounce  :Claugh:

The height shouldn't matter as long as both hoof leave the ground after all this isn't a high jump ?
They should have to still in an area !
If you count any height then a pressure pad could be used to register each time the hoofs leave the ground.

This would be a good game for those who don't or can't high, in fact this may give them confidence to bounce higher.

height must count. Its much harder to get good height than what it is to jump an inch lol. Hehe could have leagues for different skill levels :D

to be fair we was lookin for a good hard workout today, pushing things, so k-rock, a-bomb and i were doing firstly covering x amount of distance in the least amount of bounces possible, then hit the most bounces game

that is true Jason, well the number has been put out there, if anyone actually wants to challenge him im sure a-bomb would do it again on cam, and show he isnt just doing tiny bounces, remember he is 12 or 13 on adult stilts

in fact he done the 100 at the same height he bounces in this vid....

When we did our 12 hour jump-a-thon for children in need we decided that every jump must be about a foot in the air. In other words, it must be a jump with effort and not just a 2 inch wonder lol.

Jono went for 45 mins straight so I'll leave you to work out how many bounces that must be.

Also the time game is a good one to knock someone down a bit.
I challenge everyone to do 2 footed jumps for just 5 minutes solid. It's not as easy as you might think.
