Foam Master Pogo Stick (Black/Yellow)

We purchased this for our 8 yr old nephew who lives 3000 miles away for Christmas. I wanted to get him something to get him active because he plays wayyyy too much Wii and on top of that my mother was buying him a Kindle, goodbye outdoor play. ugh. I bought this and had it shipped to my grams house so that she could wrap it for us and then I wouldn't have to pay for it to be shipped to Oregon from my home in Florida. It worked out seamlessly! He was completely surprised by a pogo stick! Everyone said it was very nice and well made BUT he can't do it on his own. I keep telling him each time I talk to him that it takes practice but he said he needs help and noone is ever eager to help him (so he says) but I think he's addicted to electronics. SAD! I was going to give it 4 stars but because it is well made, nice and something that will make kids MOVE, I'll give it 5.

Technically I'm right at the upper-end of the weight cut-off, but this pogo stick puts up with me anyway. It's a fine a product. Took about three or four jumps to get it loosened up (I did the honors -- one time when my extra poundage was actually useful) and then I handed it off to my daughter who went sailing along. It's actually a good way to exercise even for a middle-aged dude like me! It's well-made, the price is right, and it does what it's s'posed to!

My 14 year old son asked for a pogo stick for his birthday present. We looked around - since we live in a rural area our first stop was Walmart. Our local Wally world did not carry them. We took a few trips to larger cities, finding either cheap flimsy pogo sticks or "helicopter parents" pogo sticks or shiny expensive paying-for-the-name gadgets. I have had good results shopping from Amazon because I always look at the reviews. Further, I can comparison shop not only within the Amazon website but at other sites as well. What my son and I liked about this stick was that the price was reasonable and it looked sturdy and well made. We were right. Not only does my son enjoy it, but his younger and older sisters (one of them has two children!) use it! Make sure to pay attention to the weight limit. We did have an adventurous guest who tried it despite being over the limit and, from what I hear, it just wouldn't "bounce" him! Also, adults need to remember that it hurts more when they fall than when young people fall! My advice is that if you want a good pogo stick, go with this one. It is a great price for the quality. I don't trust overpriced gewgaws or "bargains" that quickly break.

The Foam Master is a very good beginners pogo stick. I personally own a Flybar 800 and a Motostick, and i find the Foam Master a great way to pull of challenging/ technical tricks. Because of its size it allows for easy movement. I would recomend this pogo for any beginner that is interested in doing tricks. I personally started off with a Motostick, and found if you are able to learn some tricks on a Motostick, when you get on a smaller stick, you will be able to pull of a lot more tricks. This is not an alternative to some of the higher end products, so i would recommend this as a junk pogo, to crash/ fall alot. The durability is also nothing to behold. The shaft and hanbdlebars will bend easily, but like i said this is pretty much a stick to try new tricks on before you risk denting a nice pogo stick. For pogoist who are interested in the sport and beginning i would recommend this pogo stick more than any other one (that is unless you feel like buying a vurtigo or flybar)

This is a great toy to get kids moving. It tires you out as it works on balance and coordination. Kids dont get enough exercise and this is a fun way to do it. Would highly reccommend for kids and adults. Lots of fun. This was purchased a year ago and it is still holding up well to a lot of use.

I got this stick for my 80 lb., 9-year-old son. It was a little stiff for him due to his being right at the low end of the recommended weight range, and he had trouble with it at first. It didn't spring enough. But that wasn't the stick, just his weight in relation to the spring tension. After a day or two he got to bouncing on it and learned to bounce higher and come down more forcefully, and since then he's had no trouble with it. He bounced 300 times the other day without falling. This thing about the bumper coming out and people getting hurt -- if you were bouncing on a slick surface and the bumper came out, and you didn't notice the change in the sound and feel of the pogo stick, I suppose a person could fall and get hurt. It's a shame that one child (in a previous review) took a bad fall. But we haven't had anything like that happen. The bumper on the old stick came out twice (it was a cheaper version of this stick) but the kids just shoved the bumper back in place and that was it. The bumper on this one came out once, but we noticed immediately and this time I put a little silicone cement on the end before my son put it back in. After that it never came out. You could also drill a small hole and put a set-screw in. It's just like the eraser in the end of a pencil. There are probably a half-dozen very simple solutions the average person could come up with to keep the bumper in. Why the factory doesn't use one, I don't know. Overall I think it's a great stick for the money, if you're buying for a child and it's just for fun.

We ordered this for my grandsons Christmas present, he tried to jump on it and it will not bounce, he used someone elses just like it and it worked fine, also a person weighing 150 pounds tried it and could not get it to work, by the time my grandson got it for Christmas and tried it, the return window had closed

Muy bueno, es fácil de usar una vez que te acostumbras a su tamaño y distribuyes bien el peso, es cansado pero divertido

My Kids loved these! All the neighbourhood kids were jealous! They bounced all over the place and eventually grew out of them and I have sold them on our buy sell site for half the price. Still work amazing! Great quality!

楽しいです。バネが子供用のものより強いのでピョンピョン楽しめます。9歳の子供もやっています。結構跳ねるので楽しい様です。

Bought this for our 10 year old and he loves it. Is able to support us grown ups as well when we get the nerve to hop on. Good bounce, nice grips and sturdy design. Not really much else to say.

大人でも使えて、いい運動になります。もちろん子供も大好きです。
