# Appropriate for ages 14 and up--supports rider weight from 120 to 250 pounds
# Elevation potential of over 5 feet--dramatically greater than any pogo on the market
# Based on a one-of-a-kind, patented, fully adjustable elastomeric spring system
# Powered solely by leg strength and body weight--no pneumatic or artificial propulsion mechanisms
# Feels like bouncing on a trampoline--no high-impact jumping
The patented Flybar 1200 spring system consists of 12 independent rubber thrusters. Each one is capable of storing up to 100 pounds of thrust when stretched to full extension (300%). Multiply that by 12 and that puts up to 1,200 pounds of thrust under you. (You didn't think the model number was coincidental, did you?) That's enough to get a 170-pound rider over 5 feet of elevation. Engaging thrusters is quick and easy and can be done with the outer shell on or off. Adjusting the number of thrusters will change the feel of the spring from soggy to stiff and can be used to limit the bouncing height of the Flybar for beginners. Adjustability is also how the Flybar is capable of accommodating such a wide range of rider weights. To start we recommend engaging one thruster for every 20 pounds of rider weight using a minimum of four at any time.
Pogo stick to the max!
