Found this video on youtube. Has a lot of cool action as well as some guy on straight pogo stick type stilts. I've never seen anything like that before. Very cool.

What are those pogo thingys? Looks like that guy was twice as high from the ground as our models.

try do get higher but only because he is taller. For me I think I'll stay with pro jumps.

Someone else told me what those are. They are called hi-striders and they're pneumatic. Pretty cool but very expesive, and what a ways to fall! See www.hi-strider.com for more.

Yeah these are not anything new. Something about them though that I just dont like and thats before looking at the price. I dunno, I dont think they look as cool.

Totally agree Locky. These are like "cool, a guy on stilts." And powerbocks are like "oh my god, that's the coolest thing I've ever seen! What kind of crazy technology is that?!?"

they "pump them up" before they use them, was incredible to see them in action in france though. He was a tall guy anyway but these made him seem massive they do look good fun but they look even harder to land somersaults on due to it being straight but never the less these guys put on a great show, their is a video of them doing a performance for us in the gym at the contest which includes barani backs which was amazing to watch!
