Looking at it realisticly Marcus as you are 14 you are gonna gain weight very quick at your age mate
The first few months are a slow learning curve unless you are already good at trampolining or gymnastics as you have to build up the muscle to be able to bounce really high
The exercise you will get if you use the stilts daily will make you hungry and as you will be building muscle you will put on weight
I would say that you will easily cope with the 60kg springs but you might have to work at getting lots of height until you grow a bit but don't worry that wil happen soon enough :Cbiggrin:
Then you will get to the stage I'm at :Claugh: desperately trying to loose weight :Cbiggrin:

lol yh i do do trampolining at schhol and im second best soo i think ill be fine cant wait there getting here tomoz

Word of advice mate
When you start on them remember that you are not on a trampoline
I know it is tempting to think that it will be the same but --
You will have a lot of weight strapped to your legs so things like flips will have to be re-learned
Also if you get it wrong on a tramp you can always sit down
Now you can do this on stilts :Claugh: but it hurts :Cbiggrin:
So go careful for your first few days until you get the ballance right
Not as much fun I know but better than breaking something
And don't forget pads for you and protection for your springs (if is possible to damage a spring badly when falling)
