You probably won't need it as much as I do, but I can recommend these: Park N Move

Congrats on the new bike. :icon_thumb:

Not that I have any room to talk, but if you just stay up you don't have to worry about the skin thing. :)

Nice. I was watching a show on the new versions of the pogo sticks. They are not the same as what we had when we were kids. The new ones are designed to propel you high into the air without bottoming out.

This one ises bungee cords as the spring and you add or remove cords for the weight of the rider. You can also adjust the travel of the pogo. Short to start out and learn then you can increase it to get more height. Manual says you can jusmp about twice the height of travel and this thing can have a trave of about 2 feet.

Going to take a lot of practice. So far my best is 99 but they were low jumps, when I try to get any real height I keep loosing it.

Yeah, he's gone well over 120 jumps, but lost count so he doesn't actually know for sure how many he did.

They were about $10 cheaper than most other places and free shipping. And I mount it myself so no issue there.
