Which type of stilts best serves You? I compile useful information to help you to make a better decision.
POWERISER - AIR-TREKKERS - POWER STRIDERS - FLYING JUMPERS - CHEAP KNOCKOFFS
Ok, I swear if I ever get a phone call asking me as their first call to me, "what do you think of the Poweriser?, I will simply hang up. Yea, I know this is the best selling stilt but if you read my site before you call me, you would know that I am not here to say this one is the best, that is the 2nd best, and so on. There is only one best and each best is only best for someone's personal needs.
This brand is the best selling brand and most people refer to jump stilts by calling them Powerisers. Of course I have a pair of these. If someone asks which brand I use, just to avoid making someone buy a pair based on what I have, so you know, I have a pair of every brand. I freakin reviewed them all. But, to be honest, if I am going to do tricks I have my favorite pair that I like to keep my springs fresh and if I am going to go long distances and be out for a long time, I bring a different pair with me. Why? Cuz I got it like dat! And I got them as free samples because I don't pay for merchandise that I am doing reviews for. I did have a few companies hang up on me when they thought I was only looking for a free pair and not buy anything. Well, once they saw my site... too late... I already have my connections and they should of respected what I was trying to do when I was a newbie.
Their stilts rest about a foot and a half above the ground giving it a not the highest but not the lowest center of gravity out of the models out there. They are made in Korea, which appears to use the original technology for its design. These are not the most expensive although they have very high quality components. Probably because they sell so many they can offer better components for the price.
Their springs are made of fiber glass. The carbon fiber would probably give them a totally different feel combined with their frame and design type. Their frame is made of aluminum which is a little thicker than some of the frames out there but although it might weigh a few ounces more, that extra thickness means extra mass if you want to charge them. (Oh, by the way, the companies that charge them are now offering stickers you can put on the frame but they fly off when you are bouncing unless you duck tape them but that makes it look ugly.
After testing its spring, I will say it didn't degrade as fast as others. Whatever they do to make their springs last longer is a good thing. But, it is not the lightest spring in the world like other brands but you get tons of value out of it and save a lot of money. The knee strap behind the knee might is very comfortable and is adjusting so no complaints there. Totally different than their first generation. Whatever they do to make them durable and give solid bounces with the right amount of G force without exerting anymore than you have to, makes this brand the best seller.
If you are planning on doing flips and crazy stuff and want to get more days of doing these tricks without constantly worrying about the wear and tear of your springs, you might like these. Their advance version can last even longer for those that do casual bouncing although the other version is just fine for them.
This brand is also easy to take on and off. A lot of them you have to actually sit down to take them off. Sucks when the ground is wet or you just don't want to sit down. I will say that these were the ones that most people say are the quickest to put on and take off their stilts. For those always in a hurry you will appreciate this.
On their newer designs you can take the rubber feet off without taking off the whole assembly. Seems now that everyone is doing this. With their new model, its new design lets the spring have larger bending room. Problem solved from the earlier first generation models that bottomed out their springs. What I like most about their new style is that you have very little side movement in the feet. Something I noticed very quickly from the earlier generation. The latest generation sets the bar until others try to copy it.
Notice: I have seen look a likes and although they look similar their components are totally different and the engineering makes them look alike to fool you. Their center of gravity is way off and they are totally not balance. I actually had someone weigh their knock offs and one of the stilts weighed more than the other. If you want to see if the latest generation of this brand is the right fit for you please take my quiz.
...Because I had to buy 3 pairs until one fit.
