SkyrunnerKids/Child Youth Kangaroo Shoes Jumping Stilts Fitness Exercise (88-132lbs/40-60kg)

My son picked these out for his 13th birthday. It took about an hour before he was walking confidently and by the next day he was running and jumping. He says this is the best present ever. Love!

I was skeptical after reading so many mixed reviews. Some said these were cheap, others said they were difficult to learn to use, and another said there was no way to jump like in the photos.I reluctantly purchased these not knowing what to expect. They were a gift for my 12 1/2 year old son who insisted this is what he wanted for Christmas. Within literally the first time putting these on he was able to easily walk around the house, then outside. Within about 1/2hr of use he was easily running up and down the sidewalk. We took these to the park and after a few hours of use he was running, jumping and taking long leaps in these. I love the exercise he is getting from them.Here is my quick rating (scale of 1-10).Quality: 8They feel pretty solid and built well. I was worried about the straps breaking or not tightening (after reading some reviews). This is not the case w/ ours. Perhaps the company upgraded the snaps and straps?Ease of Use: 9I guess this depends on your kid. My son is 12 1/2 and very active. He plays lacrosse and football and has been involved with organized sports since he was about 5 years old. He is good on a skateboard, scooter and bike. I am just trying to give some perspective, my son is pretty coordinated and active. I think many kids who play sports, are quick learners when it comes to physical activity would probably not have any trouble with these.Ability to Jump 4 or 5 feet in the air or more:The photos show people jumping 4+ feet in the air. I believe this is very possible. After about 2 days of use my son was able to clear 2.5' no problem. He can now clear 3' if he has a pretty good running start then jumps. I'll try to add a photo as I did get one of my son jumping pretty high.Things to Note:-A few of the hex bolts on ours needed some slight tightening, nothing major just a 1/4 turn on a few bolts to really lock some of the parts into place.-It was a bit squeeky at the joints when he walked in these. I just applied some spray on lithium grease on the joints and problem solved. They are now quiet when he walks, runs and jumps.-Concern I have is the ability to replace parts, especially the rubber pads that you walk on with these. They appear to be holding up quite well, yet I am guessing they'll need replacing at some point? I think I can fabricate something as they seem to hold on to the bottom via 4 hex bolts. Perhaps a piece of an old tire cut to the correct size may work.

My 13 year old son LOVES these. He had done some serious work helping to re-roof an elderly woman's house after Hurricane Harvey. As a reward, we bought him what he had been wanting - these.He mastered then on day one. He is super athletic and has great coordination, though. His brother tried and failed miserably.Unfortunately, the straps unravelled on day one! Never fear, Amazon customer service took care of it right away, and a new pair arrived promptly. We have had no problems since.

We bought these for our 10 year old sons birthday. He loves them! He only weighs 58 lbs, but I weigh 110 so I can and do use them as well! The first time we went out we covered ourselves in pads and brought our longest ski poles, we literally went traipsing through the forest. We don't use the poles anymore, they are easy to learn to use.

I got these for my 11 year old Grandson for Christmas. I wanted to get him off the Xbox and outside. He was a little unsteady at first but mastered them in no time. He absolutely loves them, I don’t think he’s taken them off since he got them. And the Velcro straps makes them easy off and easy on. They also come with knee and hand guards which came in handy because he did crash a couple of times would recommend adding some kind of head protection if you plan to order these. we just slapped a bicycle helmet on my grandson and turned him loose. Best purchase I’ve ever made.

My son was so excited to finally get the jumping stilts. He has been on stilts for 8 yrs that I made for him and he uses them VERY well. He is a 'bean pole' skinny and weighs 104lbs. We thought these would work great because he's right in the middle of the weight scale. Well.... He got them on right away and they fit fairly well. The bindings are too big for kids feet for sure. My son is 15 and the bindings were just about touching when tightened to his foot and leg. They also have a pretty cheap clamping mechanism, it's kind of hard to strap in. It's not just click-click-click and your gone... after getting strapped in, he was off and running and extremely excited! Until he started to jump. When he was jumping, the pads of the stilts only we're going 3 to 4 inches off the ground. Not very high in my opinion. This is when he started to bottom out on the stilts. Meaning the full range of the stilts was used and the stilts foot hit the binding bottom. When he ran with a hop to his step, the weight on a single stilt bottomed out even easier. After A LOT of sadness, we were going to returm. Then the fun began with the seller. So I opened a return item through Amazon and then was told to contact the 3rd party seller. So I sent in a email summarizing what I said above. The seller asked for pictures first and very shortly after, closed the return request with Amazon which said he was going to refund without a return. I sent another email stating I was a little confused. Then he wanted to know my sons height (which has no bearing on the outcome) then he wanted to know my sons weight ( which I already told him twice at this point) then he had a "great deal" for me, he wanted to sell me another adult pair for $180 more (so I keep the defective ones we can't use?? Why would I do that?) then he asked to only refund half (still, I'd have stilts that don't work for us) finally after about 10 emails he said he'd return the stilts and I'd have to pay for shipping and he'd pay me back... He couldn't ever tell me why he couldn't send me a prepaid return label.. then he stopped returning emails~are they cheap? For the most part but they get the job done for the beginner I guess. They definitely will not get you jumping like the picture. I would pick a pair with your weight at least at the bottom of the scale if your wanting to jump a little. Most of the time the cheaper side of things is fine, but when you can't even do what they describe, it stinks. Usally a seller knows what he's dealing and will return easily for those who don't want them.. in this case, this seller is unwilling to return and is very hard to get a point across to.
