Introductions

[Powergirl.]

Hey K-Rock and Warg Welcome!
Always great to have new members on here

Hey Everyone,
Cory here...I got a pair of powerstrider pros 4 days ago and I'm absolutely loving them! It took me awhile to get bouncing high but I'm getting the hang of it and I'm slowly starting to incorporate grabs and stuff into my daily bocking. I'm from Ohio and I don't know of anyone who has them around my area yet other than me...if you have some and you live in Ohio let me know I'd love to go trick around and run with someone.

Nice profile picture!

You'll find that there aren't many American bockers on this forum or in general, but there are some.  I live in the USA, but New Hampshire is a long way from you.  Put yourself on the member map and take a look around for anyone nearby.

I hope you find the forum entertaining and informative.

Hi, everyone.  I'm Kyle.

I'm most likely getting Powerisers in August.  I'm excited to see what I can do.

[Phillz]

Welcome to the forums Kyle! Glad to see another member join this fine site. Where you from?


Oh and I myself is Philip, i'm really not good with introductions which may be why i haven't written anything on here until now. I've been bocking for 2 weeks but due to work and sending my flyjumpers in to get them fixed haven't i done much bocking, thanks for the tips once again everyone.

[Elyk]

I guess I didn't do the introduction very well.   

I'm living near Dallas, Texas.  I'm from southern Illinois though.  I'm married to a hot red head and I'm finishing college with a degree in missiology.

Hi everybody, I'm Guillaume, from Jonquiere, Québec, Canada! It's been a month I'm bucking. It's so cool, I'd never get a so funny deal to get in top shape!! Everybody in here look at me like if I was E.T. but I don't care, I keep bouncing again and again ans slowly, I'm creating interest for the sport and 4 of my friends will soon buy a pair of bucks! As a small description of me, I'm 24 y. o., and I'm a very intense and extreme person! I'm trying about everything's uncommun and bucking is the top of it! Pleasure to meet people in this community and I'd learn a lot reading on the knowledge section and looking video and tuto! Keep on!

Good to see more international bockers coming to the pages, and getting more people in is even better .

(by the way its Bocking )

Hi im from saffron walden and have tried some friends powerisers and now want some of my own.

I think that the best type for me would probobaly be pro-jump m80 (im 65kg) could some one give any suggestions if i have chosen an unsutable pair.

also is www.pro-jump.co.uk a reliable company to buy from of should i go elsewhere (they seem quite a lot cheaper [£135] than other sites and i hope it isn't because of a lack of quality)

[Mr Frank]

M80s should be OK.  I'm 70kg on 7090s, and FL springs are softer than Poweriser, so they should not feel too stiff.  They may just be just right, in fact, but don't get discouraged if you take a while to start getting height.

And Pro-jump.co.uk is one of the most reputable sites you can get them at, I think.  I live in the USA, so I'm not totally sure.

Oh, nearly forgot...   Welcome to our wonderful forum!

[darfgarf]

yep welcome, and pro-jump.co.uk is the official uk dealer, great service and also very good customer service if there's problems like defective stilts, but thats pretty rare

and m80 sounds ok, i'm 60kg and on T-rexes, which are 70-90kg springs, you'll just take a tad longer to get used ot jumping maybe, but you should get decent height from them, also you should check out groups local to you, i assume you're in the uk as you're thinking of pro-jump

[einkleburt]

Thanks for the info and fast response. I think now would be a good time to order them 
ive managed to jump on some 90kg sky runners, but i didn't know how they compare to the other brands springs.

As for groups i know there are ~7 other bockers in the town i live in but i dont think  they meet as a group very often, so persuading someone to start a Walden Bocking group might be an idea.

[scousybouncy]

Pro-jump branded stilts are great beginner stilts. Very reliable also.


Where about are you from? maybe there are bockers on this forum close to you who would meet up for a days bocking.

Welcome to the forum

hi i joined a few days ago , im called Caroline, im 12 "and no im not too young!" anyway.... i live in Jersey C.I, iv just ordered a pair of M60,s as people recommended hoping to see them at my door once i come back from france!!!!!! im gutted tho. iv hurt my foot some how so i have to go in for a scan tomorrow  id love to kno if anyone lives in the Channel Islands or even Jersey (iv added myself on the map). i hope that when im older and better that i can meet some of you or even go to the bocking meet up (u kno the big one every year? i think its Capital Bocking, not sure tbh)

Wish me luck xD, Caroline xxx

[Mr Frank]

Well, you just missed Capital Bocking 08, so it's going to be another year.  People have meets all the time in the UK though, so if you want to see some bockers, it shouldn't be too hard.

Good luck with your foot!  As long s it can take pressure, it should be OK for bocking.
