Jumping Stilts At Obama’s Ball
May 19th, 2009One of My Customers let me know that he performed in Obama’s neighborhood ball a couple months back using a pair of Jumping Stilts he purchased from me. I was really impressed because he told me he used to use the really expensive (like $1900) powerskips but he likes the Air-Trekkers with the calf cuff better.
Anyways, here’s a video of the performance. Enjoy!
Calf Cuff For Jumping Stilts
May 15th, 2009Have you heard of the CALF CUFF?
It’s a new cutting edge part that fits most jumping stilt models….and it’s now available in the USA as a add-on part for your existing model. And if you are in the market to buy jumping stilts, the CALF CUFF is now included on few models available in the USA. This part replaces the foam knee bar and changes everything regarding the comfort and fit of jumping stilts.
Take note, the foam knee bar will soon be obsolete.
The manufacturer of Air-Trekker Jumping stilts has heard the concerns around the world of the loose fitting, wobbliness of Mr. Boeck’s knee bar design. (Mr. Boeck initially designed his units, and still manufacturers his Powerskips with the foam knee bar.)
USA Air-Trekker users and European jumping stilt users alike sent many emails stating that they just could not achieve ideal comfort because the knee bar never fit tight enough. Many have added foam padding around the foam knee bar, used knee pads, some even wrappred straps around their legs and the bar to try to get a tighter fit. All these methods work……but now the worry and hassles of a loose fit is gone!
The jumping stilt industry listened and now has answered.
Introducing the CALF CUFF! What used to be reserved for the highest end models……the $500.00 plus models……..is now available as an add-on for YOUR units.
The manufacturer of Air-Trekker jumping stilts has designed a high end CALF CUFF part to easily fit into YOUR existing jumping stilts. Installation is simple, the fit is extraordinary, and now the cost is very affordable.
“The CALF CUFFS rule.” says Mr. Loesser, a jumping stilt performer, who performed at our president’s inauguration party. “There’s no comparison. I’ve used expensive Powerskips with the knee bar for years, and when I bought a pair of Air-Trekker EXTREMES with the new CALF CUFFS, I insisted my team buy these new units. To go big, and have the confidence to perform any trick, any time, I want my stilts to fit like a glove around my leg, a tight glove. The CALF CUFFS provide this fit.”
CALF CUFFS are made of 3″ wide, heavily padded nylon straps that over lap and are secured with a big velcro strap. The velcro fastener allows any shape, or thickness, a secure, tight fit.
This padded strapping part is attached to the same type of aluminum tubes that your current knee bar is made of. Therefore you can simply slide the knee bar out and the CALF CUFF in.
If you bought a pair of Air-Trekker, Flying Jumper, or Powerstrider jumping stilts - adult model with knee bar - after 12-1-07 - and you simply are tired of the trying to get the fit tight and secure enough, check out the CALF CUFF.
Testimonials from buyers of units that have the CALF CUFF part already installed are pouring in and they are all positive. The CUFFS make putting on jumping stilts a snap, and the fit is perfect everytime. Secure and tight. Some have even stated that the CALF CUFFS reduce the learning curve 90%. Others say the CUFFS just make jumping much more fun!!

How To Make Money With Jumping Stilts
May 15th, 2009
As stated in my previous blog post I wanted to go over several ways someone could use their jumping stilts to make some extra cash. Some are certainly easier and more realistic than others but there’s no doubt if you put your mind to it you could use your stilts for profit!
- City Messenger - We recently had someone tell us he borrowed his friends jumping stilts because his bike was broken and they were perfect for running around town delivering his mail.
- Sign Holder - One of those people who hold signs on the street corner for restaurants or furniture stores? Ok, not the most glamorous job but you could probably ask for more money because you’re going to be twice as visible on your jumping stilts!
- Get a clown costume and do little kids birthday parties - We have a customer who dresses up like the Easter bunny and does this so it CAN be done!
- Jumping Stilts Car wash - You may need to enlist the help of some friends or your little brother to get the low spots but when people see you jumping around on your stilts with a car wash sign they’ll have to stop.
- And lastly is the Air-trekkers Affiliate Program. What’s more fun that spreading the word about Air-Trekker Jumping Stilts and making money doing it.
So there you have it! Go forth and make your first million on jumping stilts!
