Sports reviews of Flybar Foam Maverick Pogo Stick (Red/Blue)
Customer Review: Exceptional buy
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I bought this pogo for my oldest daughter 5 years ago. It has been through 5 children, twice yearly block parties, being abandoned in the rain, and generally abused. It was still in great shape right up until last week when my 7yo left it behind my car and I ran it over. She is now saving her allowance to replace it with an identical pogo stick. It's perfect for petite children...the only one they've ever tried that they can actually get to bounce. One of the few toys they've used year after year.
Update:
The replacement pogo just came today. Although I was expecting pink and purple, the color is actually deep red and blue. This was neutral for me as we have girls and either color scheme works. This one looks even sturdier than the one I ran over. The frame is of larger diameter, it weighs a little more, and the tip is bigger and heavier. Good thing because I have 3 more kids behind the older ones who haven't yet sampled the joys of pogo-sticking.
Customer Review: Foam Maverick Pogo Stick

I purchased this Foam Maverick Pogo Stick for my granddaughter's 8th. birthday! I also purchased the Flybar Foam Maverick Pogo Stick for her twin brother. There is NO comparison between the two pogo stick's. The Flybar Foam Maverick Pogo Stick is by far the best pogo stick for children who don't weigh much. The Foam Maverick Pogo Stick is hard to jump on and just doesn't seem like the quality is as good. I wanted to return the Foam Maverick Pogo Stick in exchange for one like I purchased for her twin brother but Amazon has a policy about thirty day exchanges and it's partly my fault because I held it until their birthday and my thirty day exchange time ran out! I am ordering a pogo stick like the one that I purchased for her brother for their little sister's birthday! I would recommend purchasing the Flybar Foam Maverick Pogo Stick NOT the Foam Maverick Pogo Stick!! Sorry, a disappointed Grandmother!!Customer Review: Excellent

My 8 year old son really wanted this pogo stick...so much so he purchased it with his own money...a first. All the toy stores in our area were sold out or didn't carry this model so I ordered it through Amazon. No problems at all with the delivery. My son loves this toy. It takes some practice, but so does riding a bike, a scooter and a skate board. My son is about 57 pounds and this is perfect for him. I'd follow the weight suggestion listed on the box. My six year old daughter is not yet 50 pounds and she can't get the spring to go down. Other boys on our block are over 90 pounds and they are bottoming out when they try this. A friend has the same model and has gotten a replacement rubber knob for the bottom. Apparently it wears out after a few months of use. This has been a huge hit. If it were to break, I'd buy it again with my own money...a first as well.Customer Review: Outstanding Service

The service Amazon.com provided was absolutely outstanding. I had order a
Foam Maverick Pogo stick on Dec 15, 2006 and I received it on Dec 18th. Prior to ordering through Amazon, I tried to order the item from Target, Toys R Us and a couple of website and they all stated they were either out of stock or the item will not be shipped until mid January. I totally freaked out and was about to panic because the pogo stick was the #1 item on my daughter's Christmas list. When I had tried the website again, Amazon prompted and I thought I'll check it out. I couldn't believe the item was in stock, shipping was only 2-3 days and let alone on sale. I was ecstatic. I order it and got it within 3 days. The pogo stick is very nice and my daughter is very happy. Keep up the outstanding service Amazon.com!!!!

I got this as a birthday present for a granddaughter and she loves it. She never had a pogo stick before.
The colors were perfect for her. I was plenty strong to give her the ability to jump with it before the spring bottomed out. I felt it was a wonderful thing to be able to find it on Amazon.
She liked the handle feature on the top. I think for what it was designed for, small children and you can get other colors for boys, it is a wonderful thing to have. Lots of material to grip on when learning and after that to do little tricks on with a better sense of safety and confidence, especially for the more timid child.
