I think the noise was edited in, no idea why though. They make some serious noise, but it's clacking and banging when the hoof hits the ground, not squeaking.
Crazy fun, guys. These are seriously the coolest things I have ever seen or owned.
Can't quite let that go, sorry. Humans and other animals are engineered about equally well, just humans are not engineered for agility. In a footrace, we lose. But in a race to make a stack of boxes, few other animals can do it, and none as fast as us. Our bodies are built to lift, turn, and manipulate things, fully using our huge brains. In fact, we're so good that we can build prosthetics to convert our moving power back into speed.
@IMPERATORTIBERIVS I agree with what your saying except that when you listen to what he said in terms of animals being engineered better than us he was referring to the fact that they are better runner and jumpers than us.
i've just learned how to walk on poweriser stilts and i've never have experienced something so advanced and so fun. This definelty is the future. I've heard they have only been around for a couple years. Me and my brother are going to be the first people in lincoln NE to be jumping around everywhere.
they where actualy a mimic of a brizialian athlite (sprint runner) with stumps for legs but idk how he got into them but this guy was in the special/disabled olympics... from this guys artificial legs the powerizers idea was fourmed
Stop searching you've harnessed the power of the goose with every honk, I mean step. WD 40, Crisco, put a big mac in there, something. Small price to pay for having any woman you want.
very nice intro to stilts. would make a great comercial to get people interested! keep up the sport! hopefully it will catch on! (have had jumping stilts since may 07). P.S. visit poweriserpages (dot) com if you havent already. great forums and helpfull peeps for faq's. :)
I appreciate this video alot more than all the Germans and Koreans bouncing all over to cheap pop music. This is why I bought my set - it's nice to have someone else explicate it.

Sould like you could use some WD40 or Silicon lubricant, I recently fell from my pair whilst running at about 16mph and managaed to smash myself up, but I also attract lot of attention bounding down the street.
Nice video. I also own a couple of pairs of these. I have a couple of pieces of advice for you. First, you can lube the bushings to get rid of that loud "honking" noise. I use bike chain lube but you can use WD-40. Second, to make the footpads last longer you should protect them with tread from mountain bike tires. You can find other tips on <www.poweriserpages.com> or <www.powerbockresources.com>. Happy bouncing!
Great video, i recently purchased a pair of these and i use them all the time. I have had very similar reactions to yourself,'can you run?' can you jump really high?' 'can you do a backflip?' Peoples interest in them is amazing...there are now 3 pairs of these in my house, what with my landlady being a professional stilt walker. I often take all 3 pairs down the park and get random people in the park to have a go.i love it.
Damn I need to get some of these...
I´ve always loved running at the speed of light!

do they get more bouncy/easier to compress as they get more used?
willmanhi1 3 years ago
yes, but only to an extent, after a while, the spring will start to wear out and you'll need to replace it.

So do your powerizers need some lubrication or something? They seem to squeek a lot.
