Introduction: Extream Stilts
extream stilts is a sport i made up a few weeks ago. i was messing with stilts and thought, "hey, why cant i do jumps and what not like when i am on my unicycle?" so i jumped off of a 1 foot object and it was easy. so i started doing diffrent things.
Step 1: Things You Need
you wil need some aluminum stilts. you want ones that do not go very high up, i foot at the most.
a helmet, you do not want to hurt yourself.
Step 2: Tricks
i am not very good yet but i have come up with some tricks that could be done.
1. grinding.what you half to do is jump up to a grind box or something like that but it must be low to the ground, but the thing that you put your foot on onto the rail. then you wil grind down.
2. stairs, go up and down stairs on the stilts.
3. jump of the top of the picnic table and do a 180 in the air, i can even do that.
Step 3: Thats All
so there you have it, extream stilts. i hope you enjoy it. update me on how good you get!

It would make this instructable better by explaining how to make your own set of stilts, instead of just instructing them to go buy a pair that can be $100 or more...

I've been meaning to make stilts for the longest time. These plans that I came across are my latest inspiration. Maybe I'll document the building process when I finally get around to it and post an instructable...

Not meaning to burst your bubble in any way... but search 'Powerizers' on youtube, and check the videos of what comes up... I think you've been beaten to the challenge mate.
