Choosing a Good Location
Fly Jumpers are only to be used on a flat, dry and hard surface where there is plenty of open space. For your own safety and the safety of others, do not use Fly Jumper jumping stilts in any busy areas and users should be courteous to others at all times. Review the prohibited areas bellow and abide by these rules at all times. Never Fly Jump without making sure that the surface is safe, solid, flat, clean, well lit, and dry. The best surface outdoors is standard concrete. Choose areas that are free of hazards and give you plenty of room to maneuver (you’ll need several meters of clear surface on all sides). Fly Jumper jumping stilts are designed for year-round outdoor use. However, in climates of cold weather where snow and ice are common it is recommended that users find an area of open space that is dry and clear of ice, snow, salt, dirt and any other forms of loose debris.
