Had a week off work and these arrived whilst I was off - Poweriser/Jump stilts.

Anyone ever had a go or got any tips?

My mates got some, went for a run with them on, one day with him about 3 years ago. Fuck me you can run fast, the only thing is, when you take them off it feels horrible.

£190 non-runner. Guy had bodged a switch into the loom. cut that out, resoldered the wires back together and it ran. They go for £400-£500 running on eBay.
You can bring the new missus down for a go if you fancy it?!

I'd love a go on them but it would always be in the back of my mind how horrendously injured I'd end up

Cant see these being an issue tbh. If youre pretty good on a trampoline i think youll get used to these quickly.
Like roller blading and ice skating
