When I think pogo sticks I usually think of those older toys that really weren’t very fun because you could only jump like 6 inches off the ground but I know have a new view of pogo sticks. I never knew that pogo sticks could be considered an extreme sport but after I saw a video on these new pogo stick I can see how it can be considered an extreme sport. With these new type of pogo sticks you can jump higher than you ever though.
These new extreme pogo sticks don’t have any metal springs like the original pogo sticks. There are actually two different systems for these extreme pogo sticks. One system uses compressed air in a chamber to produce bounce. The other system uses a patented elastomeric spring system. This system consists of 12 elastomer rubber thruster rods. These thruster rods are able to stretch up to 300 percent, allowing a person jump over 5 feet high.
With either system these are some really cool extreme pogo sticks. If you don’t believe me just check out this video, it’ll show you what is possible on these new pogo sticks.
