Disclosure: I received this item for review purposes. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
I love finding toys that will have my girls playing outdoors. These days, kids seem to be spending a lot less time outdoors compared to the time we spent playing outside when we were kids. The JUMPAROO Anti-Gravity Pogo is just the toy that will get my daughter playing outside and having fun!
The JUMPAROO Anti-Gravity Pogo is different than the ordinary pogo sticks you may be used to, in more ways than one. This pogo features a “joystick” style handle that allows jumpers to maneuver the pogo in the direction they choose to go. It also features rugged rubber T-Springs that allows jumpers to jump 2 feet in the air! The non-marring base won’t leave marks on floors, so for those of you who live in colder areas and won’t be going out all Winter, you can use this pogo indoors as well.
I really love the overall design of the JUMPAROO Anti-Gravity Pogo. It seems easier to balance on one of these compared to other pogos. It’s built very well, is strong and durable and seems to be of very high quality.
The JUMPAROO Anti-Gravity Pogo comes in 3 sizes based on the body weight of the user. It’s recommended for children ages 4 and up. We received the small which is recommended for 33 to 66 pounds. The medium is recommended for those up to 132 lbs., and the large will work for those with a body weight of 110 to 176 pounds. If the person you’re buying for is in between sizes, it is recommended to choose the smaller size as the pogo can be too stiff if the user is not heavy enough.
Altogether I think this is a great product and I highly recommend it. It will be a fun gift to receive this Holiday season. These pogo sticks retail for $98.99. Although it may seem a little pricey, it’s a really good deal for the quality you are getting.

Would love that for my nephew!
i always wanted to try the pogo stick but was always a chicken…lol
My nephew would get hours of entertainment from that 🙂
This is a really neat toy I would love to try it to help my daughter with balancing! She has a lot of trouble with that so it would scare me a bit but she needs the help 🙂
I always love a new twist on an old classic
what a new touch for the pogo sticks. jumps up to 2 feet wow. this would be lots of fun and entertainment for the kids. I like that it wont leave marks on the floor, less work for me to do.
had a classic pogo stick when i was little, it didnt work very well….thanks for the review…will try for my kids!
Cool looking pogo, never seen these before… Must be fun!
It’s just a great product!!! Thanks for sharing
This is awesome!! I was thinking about getting my 6 year old a pogo stick, but I though he would struggle with balance. The Jumparoo looks likes it would be so much easier for him to use 🙂
My daughter hasn’t tried a regular pogo, but i think this base offers more balance than the regular pogo. I’m sure your son would enjoy the Jumparoo!
Wow, it is nice to play on that and good for exercise also
This is really cool.Sounds like something my son would love.Thanks for sharing!
Oh my gosh I would love to have one of those for myself…lol. Yes I am just a big kid! I don’t mind the price it the product is high quality. It sounds like something I would really enjoy!
The great thing is, they have different ones with different weight limits! So, you could actually get one for yourself.
They used to make running boots with a similar bottom, those were crazy. This looks like it would be so much fun.
Really, I haven’t seen those boots, sounds pretty cool!
Looks like a lot of fun, hours of entertainment
A good idea for gift to youngsters.
This is similar to the old fashioned pongo sticks. I had one as a teenager, and it was really dangerous if not used correctly.
Tosha would jump right on the thing. I’d be terrified. My experiences as a child with traditional pogo sticks were not positive. What seems to set this one apart, though, is that it has a wider base.
Yep— these are a lot like the old style ones, and take a little getting used to…but lots of fun!
Oh my gosh! This looks hard to do! But I’m sure I know a few people who would think it would be great fun!
This looks like a lot of fun!
That looks like a blast! Brings back memories for sure.
i know im to old for this but i want a pogo lol
Believe me..I feel the same why. I want to try it out so bad, but I’m way over the weight limit! lol
