a blast from the past. Walking by the closed charity shop, I saw the pogo stick in the window. I can't remember the last time I saw one, it must be in the 60s.. I had one as a kid and remember using it a few times. I did a google search and was shocked how much this model goes for these day, €54. I'll pass and leave it for some small kid. :)
Gosh I forgot all about those sticks. A little expensive these days.
ReplyDeleteHi Bill.
ReplyDeleteYou had to have a good sense of balance for that.
Greetings from Patricia.
Indeed a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteYes I can remember indeed, have never tried one myself....
ReplyDeleteOh, I guess there are more dangerous toys, but this one seemed to be one just asking for trouble.
ReplyDeleteIt looks a little more hi-tech than I remember, but I fell off them back then so I'll not be trying them now.
ReplyDeleteDefinition of a nun on a pogo stick - Hopalong Chastity!
ReplyDelete...that one sure is jazzy!
ReplyDeleteHaha... it must be fun using it but should be dangerous without practice.
ReplyDeleteSweet memories for me... and sweet jumping when I was a kid.
ReplyDelete:-)) I did not use that before but price is really interesting:-))
ReplyDeleteWise decision my friend. No reason to invite an osteo incident.
ReplyDeleteQuite retro.
ReplyDeleteNot something I enjoyed when visiting someone who had one. Of course just trying it out maybe I wasn't very good at it.
ReplyDeleteWise decision to leave the Pogo stick to someone young and agile. Suspect they are always a crash waiting to happen.
ReplyDeleteYup don't think I have seen one since the 80s maybe lol!
ReplyDeleteGood grief, that’s a lot!
ReplyDeleteThe pogo-sticks here in Holland go up to 50 kg. I guess that's not suitable for you ....
ReplyDeleteI can't remember the last time I've seen one of those. What a great find.
ReplyDeleteI have seen them here about 10 years ago. Now it's all skate boards and scooters.
ReplyDeleteI never did very well on those!
ReplyDeleteI kept falling off.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
No recuerdo haber visto este tipo de saltador.
ReplyDeleteA+
I had a pogo stick when I was a kid too. So much fun. Would be fun to give it a try again. :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen those in ages.
ReplyDelete❤️❤️❤️
ReplyDeleteWe don't have it in India.
ReplyDeleteUy lindo juguete te mando un beso
ReplyDeleteI never had one of those but I remember them being lots of fun
ReplyDeletenice memory....
ReplyDeleteI never use it.....
It looks a lot more upmarket than the pogo sticks I remember Bill 😉
ReplyDeleteI never could get the hang of this thing.
ReplyDeleteJust yes
ReplyDeletethis one I remembered as a child
it was funny
I was never too good on them ...
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
