[QUOTE=Sockpuppetss]No one has ever gotten back up[/QUOTE]
I haven't.
/watches "In disguise!" roll off into the sunset in a wheelchair.
I want a pair. I could run like [b][i]KENYANS![/i][/b] :)
When one of those springs break you are definitely breaking a bone, not to mention the spring will probably fly up your ass with tremendous force
Holy shit.
I wonder what it feels like to parkour with these on.. :D
Any idea what is the best place to order them in Europe?

Who said anything about springs? The most powerful pogo sticks use form of elastics to get the bounce :downs:
I ... I didn't even know these things were real.
Where could I purchase these in US?
That's like 20 mph...
I can race people on bikes! I saw these on a commercial once... For master card. It was about good ideas and how they would take off. Tons of people where wearing them. I wondered what made them so special... but being able to run as fast as a car in a driveway is a good idea.
Wish they showed more of the sprinting in the video, sounds like the most fun practical application of these.
I couldn't handle those flips, it's like being in an invisible drier.
I see people with these on all the time. They irritate me.

The advanced models are almost $600.
I got a Pair of them, too :D
[QUOTE=Carbon P4nda]That's what I said.
[b]Edit:[/b]
There's lots of names for them. We just call them Pogo stilts becuase it best describes them.[/QUOTE]
The official ones are poweri[b]s[/b]ers. With an 'S'.
I remember getting myself weighed correctly before ordering a pair of Powerisers, although I never did :(.
I still want a pair. (Adult Pair - They look awesome)
If I had money to blow, I would so buy a pair of these.

[B]MAXIMUM SPEED![/B][/QUOTE]
I'm sure you meant "ludicrous".
Anybody here seen somebody with them firsthand to get an approximation of speed when running?

Well it is not so much speed, as it is strides. My teacher has a pair and he moves faster than the top sprinters at School. Basically you just have a larger step so you move slightly faster, I would say about 15 to about 20 MPH, maybe.

Oh, that was brilliantly worded.
[QUOTE=E7Fan]I would say about 15 to about 20 MPH, maybe.[/QUOTE]
Thank you for that, though.
DO WANT. :excited:
[QUOTE=bord2tears]I want these to get to class, that would be epic. I would be known around campus, running 40km/h![/QUOTE]
Yeah, people would also kick the shit out of you and ridicule you too.
I want these just to run superhuman fast
[QUOTE=CubeManv2]We arn't fucking kangoroo's you look fucking retarded with them on. I'll push anyone over i see with those on.[/QUOTE]
This is why youths carry knives.
[QUOTE=Linµx]Yeah, people would also kick the shit out of you and ridicule you too.[/QUOTE]
Why? Just because they're doing something fun, you got to ruin it? Also my campus has too many cops, that'll tase you bro.
Cheap ripoff of british Powerizers.
:(
I think we should start surgically attaching these to our legs. Fuck riding a bike or even driving.

The guy in the video said springs
