The Next Best Thing to Having a 5-foot Vertical Leap!

or a jetpack?

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0002IET16/

Flybar Model 1200


Features:
  • Appropriate for ages 14 and up--supports rider weight from 80 to 250 pounds
  • Elevation potential of over 5 feet--dramatically greater than any pogo on the market
  • Based on a one-of-a-kind, patented, fully adjustable elastomeric spring system
  • Powered solely by leg strength and body weight--no pneumatic or artificial propulsion mechanisms
  • Feels like bouncing on a trampoline--no high-impact jumping

Re: The Next Best Thing to Having a 5-foot Vertical Leap!

The "ages 14 and up" recommendation probably came from the American Dental Association. They want to make sure those are permanent teeth your kids are knocking out when the land wrong.

That said, it still looks like a lot of fun...
