Hey there

The inventer and patent holder is Alexander Boeck. The general term for the jumping stilts is "powerbock" or "bocks" which derives from name.

You can find some more info in this thread http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=491.0

and one of the best resource sites for powerbocking is http://www.powerbockresources.com/

hope this helps!

His company sells the original powerskips too, www.powerskip.de if you want any further info on them. They're rather expensive though compared to Pro-Jumps! :o
