Do we know who this guy is?

Wulf is a bocker from Germany. As far as I know he bought his stilts around fall 2005, he was one of the first who posted good vids. Despite I bought my stilts nearly a year earlier, I  was fascinated by his courage and skills.

Unfortunately Wulf is currently not very active in the German forum, he does not have a permanent internet access (as far a I know).

I guess I should ask him to come to Gothenburg.

I watched this one alot too on youtube before I got my stilts.  A good example of the fun you can have without breaking your neck!  Smiley  but flips are of course to come for everyone.  Cheesy

hehe.. its a kind of funny..
in germany he's a really well-known great bocker and
at PoweriserPages.com he's a legend cause nobody knows him Cheesy

on our next meeting in frankfurt (germany), we will meet him and he shows us some of his great skills Cheesy

but its too bad, that he's not very present in our german forums like in the past.

the video that first got me interested is the really old american one where the kid is jumping over his Blue dodge ram on velocities, but i couldnt find any info on it, the description just said something about jumping around las vegas, and the poster wasnt the guy in the video. THe one that convinced me to buy a pair was a combination of Zackiz's videos and Swebounces "freestyle bocking" video on youtube.

That video kicks ass, it's really made me wanna go for a bounce, but I've got a spring in the process of breaking on one poweriZer, and one worn through hoof on the other lol.
My uni has loads of cool places to bounce around, it's even got graduated steps in one place so you can start on one step and then move up as you get more confident, I was on 4 last time I tried, but I've gotten tons better since then, I'll be heading back that way when my poweriZers are up to scratch methinks Smiley

Maybe this is cos I havent had a chance to get on my bocks for more than 3 hours (total) since I bought them so they REALLY need more wearing in but he seems to gets SO much spring for how much effort he looks to put in.

Is this just me? I mean havent seen very many people get that height in just one or two bounces on almost any vids.

Is there some secret into getting this much spring out of them or does he have some uber expencive bocks or what? (Or am I just lame to not be able to find it as effortless as he does?)

well firstly you've only had 3 hours on your bocks so your springs are no where near broken in, and you just don't have the experience he does.  I'd think he's had at least a year of bocking experience prior to this video (correct me if i'm wrong on this those that know him).  I also believe that he uses springs that are rated for much more weight than he is like a 90120 spring and there's no way he weighs close to 90 kg.  But Experience is a huge factor If we put you on a pair of powerskip e640's next to swebounce on some PR5070's he'd still bock circles around you cause he's been doing it forever, and you've been doing it for 3 hours.  Its a lot more about time bockign than the stilts, but good bocks help.  So just get out there and bock and you'll be higher than you're comfortable with in no time.
