Know how to fall!
I bought theses about 2 years ago and had so much fun! Sadly good things never last. the platform that my right foot sat on snapped in half!With my balance thrown off I fell at a full sprint! but I'm okay.As scary as it might seem one thing I highly recommend is falling down on purpose. You DO NOT want to fall down backwards.The way the stilts are shaped, if you fall down backwards you will not land on your butt. It sends you down with more force than you anticipate and flattens you out making far more likely to hit your head.Falling down forward is much easier to catch yourself, and the padding around your leg makes it very unlikely you will hurt your knees.When I first got the stilts I practiced falling down in soft grass all the time, so when the stilt broke and I fell down for real for the first time, I was not hurt.I'm going to fix my stilts and continue to have a good summer work out and lots of fun while I do so. :)

5 out or 5 for fun!
loved the boots. they fit comfortably around my shoes. it didnt matter if i was waering tennis shoes or hiking boots. only issue i had with them was the ankle strap tended ti dig in, but put on high top shoes or boots and your just fine. very easy to learn. i was running within my first few hours. still iffy on jumps and im WAY to scared to do anything like flips or anything, but im sure i will in time. 5 stars all the way

Stupid Human Tricks
The media could not be loaded. My 11 yr old loves them. He’s a short guy so I’m not quite sure these hit him where they are supposed to thigh wise. Left some very gnarly bruises all over the back of his thighs. He looked like a patient that fell while on blood thinners. We couldn’t believe he was still running around on them after seeing them. But they work as intended, seem solid. Unfortunately we got them right before winter hit and they have been locked away to prevent him from increasing the likelihood of injury more than what it already is.

Wild, skill-building fun, but with one flaw.
I bought these several months ago on a whim and have not in the slightest regretted my choice. They're an awesome workout, not necessarily a muscle building workout, but more like full body cardio. Don't be fooled, these get your whole system going hard fast. With a few months of practice, I've been able to run at 20 miles per hour and jump straight up nearly 5 feet into the air. Dangerous? Very. Fun? Absolutely. The looks I get from strangers are something else. Every time I wear them I hear someone ask what they are and if I can do a backflip (I can't, sadly.)My only issues with these are as follows:1. Where the lever connects to the lower part of the spring, there is a simple hard rubber bushing that, if you bottom out (land hard enough to use all of the spring's travel), can break and fall out, allowing the plastic piece around the nut that connects this lever to the spring to rub against the spring itself, wearing on the rubber coating over the spring and significantly softening the spring in use, making it easier to bottom out. The only solution I have found is to reinsert it from the top of the joint, but if you bottom out again, the bushing will back out again and will have to be pushed right back in.2. The straps have a tendency to fray from the ends.3. Replacement parts are exceedingly difficult to find, even wear items like the hooves (feet).Overall, I would recommend to anyone fit and reasonably able to use a trampoline. They're very easy to learn to use, but difficult to master. It took me only a few hours of fiddling with them in an empty basketball court to figure them out. Soon enough it's second nature. I would not recommend this to anyone that isn't in decent shape as they require a deal of rapid reactionary movements to make use of them, and their weight makes this a little harder than you would think.

Straps extremely poorly made
The stilts quality is good but the straps are very bad. They wouldn’t close or secure the strap placement meaning I fell right out of the closure (and almost had a nasty fall because of that).If you have the energy to complete redo the straps, would recommend. Otherwise this product is a waste of time.

Kind of fun, but ultimately not worth the price
Definitely fun, but the plastic straps are prone to snapping. Wear over at least long socks and pants, or multiple parts of the assembly will rub your shins raw after 15-20 minutes of walking. You will need to commit to a session wearing these, they take at least 10 mins and an elevated seat to take on and off. Practice makes perfect, and although you wont be "sky-jumping" as the chinese packaging suggests, you can develop a loping, springy stride that is kind of fun for a few minutes. Despite the aforementioned chinese packaging, this is definitely not a fitness/workout product, and not really worth the price. I bought these with my brother as kind of a goof and wish I hadn't spent so much money on this silly novelty item. I can see this being useful as part of a costume, but even then, there are cheaper and more specialized products for stagecraft.

Awesome product!
These things are awesome! I've never been on stilts before, so it was a new experience for me. Within 3 hours, I was walking around town! They get a lot of attention (nothing bad) and the locals really got a kick outta them! The structure is solid and the straps hold tight. Make sure to take your time getting used to them!

Awesome
I put them on confident in my abilities and walked in the lawn. I nearly fell 5 times but I never hit the ground. After about 2 hours of practice I was able to walk semi comfortably. I decided to run to school the second day and hit the ground twice. I still don't know how to stand yet so I had to pull myself back up and continued on my way to school. After a week I'm able to jog. I'm still working on bouncing but I'm getting there. I recommend buying from a seller that sells replacement parts as well. I can't seem to find any stilt hooves. The ones I have are starting to lose grip.
