From Xpogo:
On August 13th 2004, the first ever Pogopalooza was hosted by Dan Brown, in a parking lot in Lincoln Nebraska with a handful of attendees. Since then the event has taken off and blossomed into the World Championships of pogo, which we’ve held across the world and has undergone many evolutions alongside the sport of Extreme Pogo. In honor of the 20th Anniversary of Pogopalooza we put together this documentary to take a deep dive into the history of the event weaving together interviews with the people who made Pogopalooza what it was and highlights of the greatest stunts, high jumps, records and runs. This film is a detailed look at this event which serves as the beating heart of the sport of Extreme Pogo, and all the blood, sweat, tears, and bails that have made it happen over the years.

“SLUGXURY – The Manifesto” by Aidan Gabriel
SLUGXURY
The Manifesto
Pogo stick propaganda written by Aidan Gabriel
With editing assistance from Duncan H.
It has been three months since I released my debut trick pogo video, SLUGXURY. Within our pogo community it is not common for people to write manifestos explaining their cinematic creations. However, there is a deeper sentiment I have tried to convey with this project. I have since discovered that a pogo stick video is perhaps an inefficient way to articulate a revolutionary potential. In an effort to rescue the point from obscurity, here I am writing yet another manifesto.
The opinions contained in these pages are my own. It is undeniable that I have been inspired by books n’shit. I just don’t want to imply that these opinions are shared by other members of the extreme pogo sticking community, my friends at Allpogo or Reaper Pogo, or by my friend Earl who is featured prominently in the SLUGXURY film. I am also not speaking on behalf of the Edgewater Mutual Aid Network Creative Collective. -> (Read More) ->
Updates in the world of Pogo
We’re back with another update on the state of AllPogo, Pogopalooza, and Pogoing in general. Let’s get into it.
AllPogo Updates:
- AllPogo has been a bit slow on the social media channels after launching the REAPER and Aidan’s new video. The 2023 post-holiday season has wrapped up and we are kicking on the machine once again for another successful year of Pogo Sticking and community building.
- We are unfortunately NOT going to be hosting our Winter Warm-Up event this year. We are going to try to bring it back next winter, but seeing as this winter is almost over, it makes more sense to dedicate our efforts towards Pogopalooza. It was a fun time the first time around, but I’m continually hoping to make it an event worth traveling to and I wasn’t confident in that this year, so we’ll see how it goes in the future.
- Our Tricklist is back up and running! Grab a few new tricks today and you can have them mastered for #PogoAllMay later this year.

Check out the Reaper Pogo Stick, available for sale NOW!
REAPER Pogo Sticks NOW AVAILABLE!
We are beyond thrilled to announce that the hand-crafted and pogoer-designed REAPER Pogo Sticks are now available for sale, right here on our store. The REAPER is the strongest steel spring pogo stick ever created, and it was designed and manufactured by tech pogo legend and AllPogo co-owner Earl Pote, with help from fellow pogo legends Fred Grzybowski & Ryan O’Malley. The majority of the stick itself is a lightweight and durable aluminum, and incorporates replaceable grind plates and peg stall plates into the pegs, and the upper pass has been designed out of a strong and tested nylon. Perhaps one of the most awesome parts, the spring was uniquely designed for this exact pogo stick and no other reason.
Along with the launch of the REAPER stick, we are also launching a few other related products, such as the REAPER Tool Kit, which will include all of the tools needed for general maintenance, and our awesome REAPER Grind Wax for slipping along those ledges.
Last but not least, we recently expanded our store’s capabilities, and we are now able to accept AfterPay, Affirm, and Klarna – Buy Now, Pay Later options. -> (Read More) ->

Flybar Ends Production of the Super Pogo
We have some unfortunate news to report today. We have confirmed that Flybar has ended production of the Super Pogo, essentially killing off the long-lasting staple of our sport. Although it has been branded differently with minor differences throughout the years, the same basic stick has been around since the beginning. At the beginning it started out as the Gravity Games Pogo Stick, which was the stick that started our whole sport for the most part. After a while, it was rebranded to the Super Pogo Stick, and made out of a slightly cheaper material, but still kept the same shape and was still used profusely. That was until AllPogo’s own Earl Pote started modifying the Super Pogo for his own Tech uses, and eventually started selling these upgraded models as the Signature Series Pogo Stick.

A One-Of-A-Kind Signature Series (Right)
At the time of writing this, we are currently in-between models, as Earl is winding down the Signature Series with the cancelation of the Super Pogo. Luckily, we have been hard at word fabricating our own replacement stick, the REAPER. -> (Read More) ->
