Flybar Elastomeric-Spring Pogo Stick Edit

Looking for another safe sport?  Why not try hopping around on a Flybar Elastomeric Spring Pogo Stick.  If the name doesn’t intimidate you, you’re probably ready.  Plus, it’s endorsed by a World Champion Skateboarder, so you know it’s safe.

“The revolutionary new FlyBar™ delivers a gravity-defying, trampoline-emulating bounce far beyond that of ordinary pogo sticks. Rather than hopping just inches into the air, this “mobile exercise and stunt bar” lets you fly to unprecedented heights of five feet! Designed in collaboration with eight-time World Cup Champion Skateboarder Andy Macdonald and physicist Bruce Middleton, the Flybar’s amazing performance is based on a patented elastomeric spring system that’s totally innovative. ” - SharperImage.com

It get’s better:

“Incredibly, the high-tech design does not utilize steel-coil springs, pneumatic or artificial propulsion mechanisms of any kind. Instead, 12 heavy-gauge, elastomer rubber “thruster” rods — specially formulated to stretch up to 300 percent — generate awesome super-charged propulsion! When you jump on the Flybar’s extra-wide foot pegs, the thrusters stretch, then recoil — launching you into the air. Want more air? Simply engage more thrusters!” - Sharper Image

Of course I want more air.
