This thing is amazing. My 12 year old has been pogoing since ...

I did NOT get this at a discount for a review, but the discount reviews are right. This thing is amazing. My 12 year old has been pogoing since he was 6 years old with cheaper Flybar sticks (Mavericks, usually, and they usually got stolen, uggh), but he needed an upgrade, since he's almost grown now, and WOW, is this an upgrade! If you have a kid/preteen/teen over 110 lbs but under 200 lbs who wants to pogo, this is IT.

My boys love their Pogo’s!

I have two rough and tumble boys. These seem like they will hold up to their destructive ways. My soon to be 9 year old is 69 lbs one of the tallist kids in his class. and although it was a stiff start, and it’s a bit high for him (the handle bars come to his chest) he has been hopping a bunch in our basement (too cold and icey outside) my 11 year old is just at the lower end of weight for this at 80 lbs. Handle bars come just above his waist. They will likely be bouncing all over the neighborhood on these in the spring and summer. Perfect for my energetic boys on days I don’t want to try to keep up with them on their mountain bikes or trick bikes at the park...

My son loves this pogo stick

I purchased the black/yellow version of this pogo stick for my son back in September 2010 and it is hard to believe it was that long ago. He used to pogo with this every day, anymore it is once or twice a week. This is his 2nd pogo stick as he wore out the first one we bought him when he was younger. He got so big it began to bottom out. He is 10 now but he is a really big kid. The Flybar Foam Master is much stiffer and it took him some practice to get this one going. It wasn't long before he had such control and could bounce so long that he pogos his way around our condo complex with ease. It takes a few bounces to get it going so it takes more skill and he got the hang of it after a few days. Every so often I put some silicone spray on the shaft and springs. The thing has held up great and the only wear is the foam handle grips are tearing a bit. I plan to wrap them with silicone rescue tape and the problem will be solved. I'm 6'2" and weigh a few more pounds than my son. I tried this pogo a few times and I'm really not that good. It isn't the pogo stick, it is me. I just haven't logged the practice time. The last pogo I used as a kid was your basic old style pogo like the first one we bought my son. My son weighs less than me but he has NO problem controlling this thing and can pogo precisely where he wants. I read the reviews about this being too stiff, hogwash. If my son can do it then it is just a matter of practice, sticking with it and learning to keep your balance those first few stiff bounces until you get the springs working. It is sad so many people expect instant results and aren't willing to log some hours of practice before they toss something in the "too hard" pile.

These cause a lot of fights, be warned

I bought this stick and a blue one for my kids for Christmas. The product is great. The spring is stiff enough to get some really good jumps, but not so stiff that it collapses under a heavier jumper. The little pad at the bottom is still good to go and hasn't crumbled. Now for the bad. No matter how honest you think your child is, he or she will lie their butts off when questioned about the number of jumps they completed. It will result into an argument between the children and end up in a fiercely debated re-jump where the child who claimed he did 10 million jumps must now prove that he can string together more than 20 at a time. The older child will then sit there and count in a very condescending tone of voice (which is hilarious to watch) as the jumping child eventually dissolves into tears and accuses the counting child of skipping numbers. Its a mess. Get yourself a clicker counter and a strong margarita (or beverage of your choice) and good luck!

Good quality pogo stick!

These work well for lower range pricing of pogo sticks. I teach elementary PE and I have several of these models for my older elementary student's (even as low as 2nd graders who are more experienced use them). These compared to the lower weight version provide more bounce for more advanced kids or my heavier kids. I'm 6' 0" and 180 lbs. and these actually allow me to demonstrate (with minimal bottoming out). I've had advanced students weighing as little as 60 lbs. using these pogo sticks just fine and they can actually sky fairly high (a foot high or so :) ).

Well built and my 8 year old loves it.

This was purchased for my 8 year old son for Christmas. At first we were a little concerned that the spring was too stiff for his weight (he's a little smaller than average), but as he used it more and more today he started to get it to bounce. Once he gets his balance right and can hop on it more than 5 times in a row, he will be able to get some decent height out of it. Due to some of the older reviews I checked the rubber tip to make sure it was attached and solid. It has a very solid feel. At this time I am not worried at all about it coming off. I will keep an eye on it for wear but that would be the case for just about every pogo stick. I also like the sturdy construction of the foot pegs and the foam covering the handles. It has been a hit all day today and I am confident it will continue to be (he is our most active kid). If anything changes with the rubber tip, I'll update my post. I will attach a couple photos with close-up's of the tip and the foot pegs.

Awesome pogo stick!

This is a great pogo stick. My 8 year old (70 pound) son received it for Christmas and was bouncing without any issue. This is his second Flybar pogo stick - he outgrew the smaller model. The spring is stiff, but if you are good at, and familiar with pogo sticking, you shouldn't have any problem. He loved how much higher he could get! Only trouble with him being on the smaller side of the size requirements is he's not tall enough to bounce hands free like he could on the smaller stick. But time will take care of that :)

Well made. If buying for a child, make sure they are heavy enough to make it work properly.

I purchased this pogo stick for my 9-year-old child who had been asking for one for a while. The pogo stick arrived quickly-within a couple of days of ordering. The box was dented slightly, but there didn't appear to be any damage to the product. The pogo stick is ready to go right out of the box... no assembly required, which as a busy parent... I appreciate very much! I took a couple of jumps on it and realized that Whoa!!... my center of gravity and balance has changed a bit from when I was a kid! It feels like once you've ridden a pogo stick, you'll always remember how- kind of like that "riding a bike" thing. But... it took me a little longer to adapt to the feeling of the pogo stick than what I remember from my childhood. Partly, that might be because this pogo stick is definitely a higher quality "toy" (really more a piece of exercise equipment) than what I had as a kid. This is a good thing! The stick is heavy, feels like it is mostly metal with no obviously flimsy/breakable parts. It is squeeky when used- but I think that is expected with pogo sticks. One thing that I really appreciated was a tip written in the instruction book that said that the pogo stick is going to be especially "tight" (ie- it takes a lot of weight/effort to get it to bounce) for the first few uses. Apparently this is because they make sure the spring is good and tight so that it doesn't just loosen up over time and start to bottom-out. It was helpful that they put this disclaimer in, though putting it into the product description might have been more helpful as knowing that ahead of time might have steered me towards a different model that would be a little easier for my 9-year-old to operate. When they say a weight range of 80-160 pounds... it really means closer to the upper end of that weight range. My little one is barely over the 80lb mark, and will have to wait a year or two probably to be able to have enough strength to get the spring to compress when jumping. Still, the product is so well made that I plan to keep it and perhaps my husband and I can use it a bit to loosen the spring up some more so that our child will be able to use it sooner.

Peter Pan syndrome

Sure, I’m an old lady (42) but I can still pogo with no hands and jump rope at the same time... really, I’m not kidding! This thing reminds me of being a kid ... except for when we had to fight the dinosaurs, but that’s a story for another time. If it works for my old self, it will work for your wild children.
