Our WALKAROO™ STILTS in People Magazine
Posted by: | CommentsAn article about celebrity rocker/reality star BRET MICHAELS in People Magazine’s April 5th issue featured a photo of Michaels in his driveway with his 2 girls and all their “toys!” …Including his daughter Raine walking on a pair of our WALKAROO™ BALANCE STILTS! What a surprise it was, when, flipping through this popular national magazine, I unexpectedly see our product staring back at me!
Bret Michaels is best known as the lead vocalist of the glam metal band Poison. He also starred in the VH1 reality show “Rock of Love with Bret Michaels” and its sequels, and as a judge on the talent show Nashville Star. Most recently he was a contestant on NBC’s reality show Celebrity Apprentice 3.
About our Original WALKAROO™ Stilts:
Most stilts are simply straight poles with foot platforms attached to the sides. The tops of the poles rest behind the shoulders, forcing the upper body to slump forward. Not ours! WALKAROOS™ have an S-bend which wraps comfortably around the shoulders. Another bend at the foot platform (11″ above the ground) places your weight directly over the lower pole for vastly improved control. WALKAROO Balance Stilts also quickly adjust to accommodate anyone from 4′ 6″ to 6′ 6″, so the whole family can get in on the fun!
Great for improving balance and coordination. Made of rugged tubular steel, with a non-marking rubber “foot,” which allows for use indoors and out.
Maximum rider weight is 250 lbs.
Age: 8 & up
Item #11110
May be purchased online or nationwide at Learning Express Stores, and other great retailers.
