hey all, ok i did a search and coudn’t find anything that was gonna help me.
i just ordered my flybar 1200 pogo stick an was wondering how much different from a normal spring powered pogo is it? and how hard is it to get used to? i have a normal pogoand can do spins and some simple tricks on it.
thanks
i herd it was just like a trampoline……. the felling u get from it anney way i want 1 have fun with it 
i want to try one of those really bad. I wonder if you could make something similar?
the difference is around five feet.
well i realise that much…lol
pogo-sticking is really fun…but sorta hard. wen u get it, you’ll have loads of fun:D
My experience is linked below. The Flybar is heavier than an old, cheapo pogo stick, and a lot louder. But it’s stronger and has more lifting power.
…
I really want to get back into pogoing. I used to do simple stuff like stairs and no hands. But then my pogo broke. It was just a spring powered one.
Why are they called “pogo”?
pretends someone i dont like posted this because thats your moms nickname…and they both go up and down when people ride em…(seriously though, joking)
!EEK!
I want a pogo stick. Maybe i should get one for my birthday. 
From the web:
The legend of the pogo stick dates back to just before World War I, when a German traveler stopped at a small village in Burma, where he sought lodging with a poor farmer. The farmer told his visitor that his daughter, Pogo, wanted to go to temple each day to pray, but couldn’t because she had no slippers to walk through the mud and rocks.
Unable to buy his daughter shoes, the poor farmer fashioned a crude jumping stick, by attaching a short stick to the bottom of a longer pole. After practicing on the stick for days, Pogo became proficient enough to hop the stones and mud puddles on the path to the temple.
The German, returning to his country, attached a spring to the wooden stick to improve the bounce. In 1919, Gimbel Bros. Department Store imported a shipload of German pogo sticks to the United States., only to find that humidity had warped the wood and made them useless.
Gimbel then asked Hansburg, a baby furniture and toy designer living in Illinois, to come up with a better pogo stick.
He came up with an all-metal, enclosed-spring pogo, painted it and began producing it himself in a factory in Elmhurst, N.Y.
According to another website:
Yes, the above story is just a legend and not true, however, George Hansburg did patent the first pogo stick in 1919.
That link didn’t take me to a flybar, but it took me to pictures of an electric uni. That looks cool. I’d like to try to try that…
