I think if you don't want to spend an arm and a leg on "Bock" branded ones I'm sure that the general sports holdalls should fit the bocks in

thanks buzz we are hoping to get some in but just hasn't happened yet.

@ Jason - think ur bag looks pretty cool! You should start making custom ones I'm certain you'd get a few customers from here, as the ones currently available are kinda expensive!

A m8 of mine has a flyjump bag and has had no problems. Mind saying they are 'crap' makes me nervous of asking to borrow it to go to spain with in may --in case I break it  ?
1 prob with a dedicated 'riser bag is that you cant fit much else in. Airlines are being more and more restrictive ( ie charging more) for 2nd pieces of luggage.

Flying off for a weekend to Spain or Sweden in summer is no problem as clothing (a couple of spare tees un shorts) can go in handluggage. But its a bit more tricky for longer hols, also nowhere ,as i see it in a riser bag, to put much cheep booze, and i still think you cant have liquids in hand luggage.

You will have to pay extra for your bocks on a flight, as they are classed as sports equipment.

do they have to know?

 Uncle Matt has tried to get them recognised by the sports council of wales. I think they didnt want to know, so wouldnt a photocopy ( even in welsh) be officially that it isnt sports equipement?

It is normally a con by the airline companies, if you have paid for a flight ( seat and baggage hold space) and what you are carrying is legal to go on a plane why charge extra for certain types of luggage?

Thanks Webmaster I was lucky with the material got it free
 
As for custom ones by the time I bought the material and the speed I sew at I think I'd be a lot dearer than the alternatives

If anyone knows of a shop that does small runs they can use my design and might do a cheeper version on bulk

I just bought a sports-bag-thing and made holes in the sides for the Pro-Jump Hooves to stick out. I have less of a problem though because I have Junior PJ's. They bottom out a bit though so I might have to get the adult ones :-\

i was thinking for a back-pack style bag, there could be a velcro support for the springs (which holds them in an upright position) and then like a cover for the outside which can be detached for when it is sunny, so you can show them off, i might try and design them one day in my study leave.

Hi folks. Ive just got back from Bocking with my good buddy Swebounce in Spain ;D *. Thought Id let you know what he and a few others do regarding transporting 'risers.

1st off Swebounce and emil ( another swede) use big Golf transporting bags. These have the advantage of being big enougth to put quite a bit of luggage in ( including cheap booze --well Id have thought so , dont know if they did) and they have little wheels so 1 may drag them about easily.

A few guys each had poweriSer bags and a few 7league stilt bags ( possibly not available easily in this country as these people were German and Austrians). I used a Flyjumper bag I borrowed off a mate.  Two people, who also flew out from the UK, had no bags! Carried stils to airport then strapped them to their ordinary luggage at airport! Seemed to work judging by the flips they were pulling.

Though I think the best solution was probably Wolfgang's. He got two of his workers to drive from Austria in a Mercades van with the  stilts!!!!


* Yep, I got to bounce with the man himself. I have to tell you it is quite something to be standing around chatting with friends and the guy pulls 7 flips in front of you. Yes it was caught on several video camers and some still cameras ( including 1 guy laying on the gound shooting up). Im sure some of the stuff will be seeping onto the net soon ( if it hasnt already)

I may try to see how much, it will cost to make a back pack styled bag to carry the PJ's in, will let people know how I do soon!!!

Or you could just fold the bag up and put it in your pocket. I think they would be very useful as you could carry all your pads and any tools required in them :)
