There’s always a moment right before you jump: The brief moment where your muscles tense up a bit, your heart beats a bit faster, and all of a sudden, you’re very aware of the danger. It’s like looking over the edge of a high dive. What’s ahead is scary, but you know that you’re in control. And that thrill is exciting.

A pogo stick is a classic toy that has been reinvented hundreds of times, but sometimes, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Alex Brands offers the Alex Toys Active Play Super Go Pogo Stick, and it’s everything you’re looking for in classic summer play.

Call me a coward, but if I come upon a flimsy or thin pogo stick, I’m walking away. The Super Go Pogo Stick is sturdy and tough, giving me extra comfort as I jump. It’s a bit on the heavier side, but that’s because this pogo stick means serious business. It’s supportive, strong, and durable.

The Super Go Pogo Stick is designed for bigger kids than the rest of Alex’s pogo sticks, specifically for kids ages 9 and up. Since most 9-year-olds are similar to my height (#shortgirlproblems), I felt like I was getting the full experience when I tried it out. The handles are padded, so they’re comfortable and easy to hold on to, allowing kids to feel comfortable and grab on tight.

The base has rubber grips so kids’ feet remain stable. I highly recommend the proper footwear when bouncing—the best option being sneakers. Sandals and shoes with smoother bottom souls will make it easier to slip. Of course, a safety helmet and other protective gear like elbow and knee pads are recommended, as with any active play toy.

The super fun Active Play Super Go Pogo Stick lets kids experience the thrill of jumping on a pogo stick, but with all of the safety and security features needed to avoid any bumps and bruises. Keep kids active this summer with classic play that’s fun for the whole family.
