Flybar
Comments (0) Flybar is one of the coolest sports out there. Most people have never heard of it, but when you hear of it’s younger sister, the pogo-stick, then you know what we are talking about.
When my wife and I were in San Francisco a few weeks ago, we were just doing a little sight seeing, when I saw some human kangaroos jumping through Fisherman’s Wharf. Then I realized that these dudes weren’t just naturally born freaks, but that they had some sort of souped-up pogo stick under them. I went and started talking to them and they filled me in on everything about Flybar, one of the companies that manufactures these specialized extreme pogo-sticks.
However, when most people think of a pogo stick, they think of a little eight year-old girl with pigtails jumping around in the drive way and screaming when she falls and cuts up her knees. Well, this is the complete opposite of that. Flybar is a sport only for the completely insane. Not only do you face plant hardcore if you fall, but more wrists have been broken participating in this sport than any other. Check out the sweet video.
