Description
While the word "extreme" may be overused when describing a toy, it fits the bill here. With an available 17" of lift, your average child can easily become adult size and master the art of balancing on stilts. These are made of lightweight steel, with foam-covered shoulder rests and handles, and adjustable to let the user change the height from 5" to 17" by using extensions as they become comfortable. Accommodates riders up to 210 lbs. and ranging from 4' to 6'6" tall.
Publisher's Description of Walkaroo Extreme Stilts
An "Uplifting" experience! Walkaroo™ Xtreme Balance Stilts for advance stilt-walking quickly adjust to accommodate anyone (ages 6+) from 4' 6" to 6' 6". What makes them "Xtreme?" It's the adjustable walking height that takes you from the height of Original Walkaroo Stilts (5 inches off the ground), WAY UP when you attach the included Vert Lifters. These Extensions allow experienced stilt walkers to walk even higher! They can be adjusted from 12 inches to a super-height 17 inches off the ground!
Geospace has made the classic stilts design a whole lot better... a whole lot easier to learn, easier to use, more ergonomically correct, and much more fun! Traditional stilts are simply straight poles with foot platforms attached to the sides. Unfortunately, the tops of the poles rest uncomfortably behind the shoulders, which forces the upper body to slump forward and hinders balance. Not ours!
Only Walkaroo Stilts have a patented "S-bend" which wraps comfortably around the back of your shoulders. Another bend at the foot platform places your weight directly over the lower pole for vastly improved control. Great for improving balance and coordination. Walkaroo Xtreme Stilts are made of rugged tubular steel, featuring a wide, highly-stable non-marking rubber "foot," which allows for use indoors and out.
