Small Flaws Jan 17, 2010 I bought this for my twelve year-old son who'd gotten very skilled with a "regular" pogo-stick and needed to move on. We found the FlyBar and I bought it for him for Christmas. Generally it behaves as advertised, however there are a few minor flaws I'd like to share. The most significant is that one of the four threaded holes where screws fit to hold the cover in place was neither drilled nor threaded. We decided to live with it and hold the cover on with the remaining three screws, it being Christmas it's hard to tell a twelve year-old you need to ship his prize gift back for a new one.
He started to use it for a while, on days it wasn't snowing, and a small insignificant part broke. This didn't disable the pogo-stick but this is a heavy-duty high-end product and that shouldn't happen.

Fun but thrusters break easily Apr 16, 2009 My son saved his allowance and did extra work so that he could purchase this. When finally he saved enough, we ordered and he loved it immediately. It does bounce very high (but not scary high)and the ride seems smooth. He wanted me to write a very positive review the very next day so that everyone would know what a great product it was.
However, within two days a thruster broke. We contacted the manufacturer who gladly replaced it with not only one thruster but TWELVE. Wow, I thought, how generous. It quickly became apparent why they sent so many out--they break very, VERY easily. At least six of ours have broken in less than a month. At this rate the life expectancy of this pogo stick is extremely limited, and we are very disappointed.
This product is fun for a day, and then it starts to break. Not worth the $200.
Great fun! Jan 22, 2009 I purchased this as a gift for my daughter, who used to love pogo as a child. At 20 yrs old, she now enjoys the Flybar pogo stick with a great child-like enthusiasm. It's a quality product, designed to bring out your inner child.
It has a three level adjustable piston to raise the platform, as your skills progress, and 8 heavy duty elastics that are employed as needed for your weight. This pogo will send you about 3 feet in the air, so DON'T buy it expecting to leap tall buildings in a single bound, but it is aggressive enough to be really fun.
Great fun + exercise! Jan 19, 2009 Great adjustable pogo stick for the young at heart. Grandsons love it and is great for the exercise hopefully it won't rattle their brains too much. They really get some great height. Don't trust Amazon.com though as they sold it as new and it was previously used and was missing parts and directions, which the Flybar Company graciously sent asap. The pogo stick itself is easy to use and really gets in the air. Highly recommend it.

Doesn't Jump That High Jun 20, 2008 I bought this thing so I could jump really high. I am about 165 lbs and I have it set to jump as high as it can go and it will only jump about 1 foot. There is no way you can get this thing to jump 4 foot in the air, it is not worth the money the the bar in the middle is really wide, it feels very funny riding on it.
