The pogo stick was originally designed by Zak Sprinkler, a fan of live music events, but one who was as you might have guessed, very small. With his brilliantly designed 'crowd-hopper' as he named it, he was able to watch rather abbreviated concerts all over the world. It never caught on as a means of music watching (unsurprisingly), but he died happy and exhausted nevertheless. Fortunately someone in the crowd adapted his original idea and came up with the pogo-stick. This ultra-modern version is the hottest version yet. Replacing the old-fashioned exposed spring with an enclosed tension adjustable piston, and lightening the construction with aluminium foot-rests and handles makes the V800 a super-high hopper. You can adjust the tension for lightweights and heavyweights alike, and bounce about like a super-charged demented bunny to your hearts content.

Pogo is also an acronym for 'privately-owned/government-operated', which sounds like a recipe for disaster if there ever was one - bit like a pogo-stick then. Strangely it's also an acronym for 'Polar Orbiting Geophysical Observatory', which if you pogo very enthusiastically with a telescope on your head could well be where you end up.
