Poweriser Jumping Stilt Classic 158-198 lbs

Well built and able to take a pounding, these Powerisers are tight and worth getting...I think.Suggestion to buyers - Buy a little below your weight bracket. I am at the bottom of the weight bracket for my set and this makes jumping with both stilts at the same time awkward and difficult. Jumping on one leg gets more immediate recoil of the springs (not really springs, more like limbs of a long bow).The only design flaw is in the binding straps. There are three per stilt, one at the knee and two on the feet. The one at the knee is short so that it is tough to get your foot through the loop while the binding strap is still in the buckle set-up yet if you let the strap slide free of the buckle, re-engaging it in the buckle is very tricky. Also the straps are velcro and pass through a simple "buckle" making removal of the stilts tough - especially for kids.While the strapping in is less than optimal, the best way is to remove your shoes, strap them in loosely, then insert your foot into the stilt, tie your shoe and tighten it all up.

I bought a set of these (2 stilts, or so I thought) for my grand-nephew for a Christmas present. They were delivered, and I wrapped them as a present, and all was cool and life was good.Then I got an e-mail message from the merchants -- according to the message I had only purchased one Poweriser (even though they are priced and sold as a set of TWO) and, would I please send back one of the Powerisers, even though sending back one would make the remaining one absolutely and completely useless. I decided to ignore the request to send back the Poweriser, and have not heard from the merchants since, It's now almost February, so I assume that the whole matter is a dead issue, but who knows -- they may come after me again.NOTE: If you buy these things make sure that you're buying TWO Powerisers, not one. Otherwise you'll end up like me, with a wrapped Christmas gift and no assurance whatsoever that you have purchased two or one of these things. Note that the advertisement shows two Powerisers, and that nowhere in the pricing does it say that the price is for one or a pair of these things.ALSO NOTE: My grand-nephew thinks that these things are really cool. Too bad the product design people are ahead of the marketing peoiple (as usual)

I received my powerisers in a timely fashion and they came with what I thought was everything. I didn't get a manuel but I had watched enough videos on YouTube to figure it out. They were easy to put together and I've learned to walk and jog pretty quickly. My only gripe is that there is a label on the power stilt that was already detatched in the box. Basically it said I can't sue if this label is detatched. Not that I planned on it but I found that interesting. Good product, well built.

Pretty much got exactly what I expected. Fairly easy to figure out, finally really getting the hang of getting air. No backflips quite yet.The stilts themselves seem to be very solid and well built. The strap that goes behind the knee could be a little thicker, so I might do a bit of custom modifications. Aside from that, loving them.

Wish they were easier to get on and off, velcro was a bad choice wish it as more like a snowboard bindings. The padding on the front loop things is insufficient for me, I think a pair of shin guards might do well to make that more comfortable.

Well constructed but some areas not good like the rubber that protects the fiberglass and the shin pads both tore rather quickly. Aside from that my son loves them. Great exercise.

Quick delivery and product was in great condition! My husband sprained his ankle a couple weeks ago and isn't able yet to Jump on these guys, but boy is he having fun walking around on them! He even claims they are helping his ankle, but I think that is so I won't freak out when he does start jumping! Great purchase, he loves em!

Saving for next year when teenagers are heavier--requires more balance and the springs are very tight for little kids to uese
