LAD on stilts pruning pear tree

My parade / dancing stilts, shown above, are peg stilts (without lower feet), weighing merely 3 lb 5 oz each, with resilient rubber balls for shoes - to absorb shocks and allow graceful spins while dancing.

The other pair of stilts with the big feet are for close-quarters (in dense crowds, between tables, etc.) and marathon performances (up to 6 hours a day). Built with aircraft alloy aluminum, the large articulated feet have a mechanical advantage for precision control from my feet 5 feet above. The pair weighs only 14.5 pounds, including hip harness, straps and size 22-EEEEE shoes.
   These unique, one-of-a-kind custom stilts are much superior in stability and comfort to drywall stilts or “Bigfoot” stilts for heights over 3-feet and.  I also prune trees, clean gutters and decorate ballrooms with them on. They greatly speed up the work! 

I have performance tested and perfected their reliability over a 13 year life span.  I can custom-fabricate to your exact measurements a pair up to 10-feet tall. Yes, they will be pricey!  E-mail me or call 360-579-1763

I am currently constructing an amazing pair of ergonomic spring-toed sprint-stilts, using the latest lightweight aluminum alloys and composites -- form-fitted, lighter and more maneuverable.  This could be the new Extreme Sport craze! I’m now looking for investment funding to bring this product to market!
