My life pogo story: One fine summer day, me and my cousin jim dug up my old master pogo and began creating what we thought was our own original sport. Well that stick broke and our dreams were shattered along with the spring. A year later I mowed enough lawns to go out and purchase a new pogo stick. I remembered our old extreme sport idea and looked it up online to find stunt pogo. I immediately went out and got a gravity games stick. I later met up with Matt and he was interested and got a stick. Same with Rob. I’m currently on my 4th stick, 3rd GG stick. I really have no idea how long I’ve been pogoing, but I’m going to guess about 4 years.
Original tricks: Krazy glue, Seasick variations, Fish hook, Ledge stall switch-ups, Bunch of ledge stalls, Landslide, Heel grind, Running stick flip.
