REAPER Pogo Sticks NOW AVAILABLE!

Posted on by

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) ->

A Brief (& Late) Update

A lot has been going on in the pogo world lately, but most of it behind the scenes, and unfortunately some of it may not be good. With that said, we will sail on as always. I just wanted to give a quick update, since there has been a lot of talk and questions being asked to us here at AllPogo, to Vurtego, and to the community channels. I owe everyone a much longer update, and that will come, but life has been busy lately, I’m sure you all know how that goes.

Yes, as noted in our last article, the future of Tech Pogoing is in OUR hands alone here at AllPogo. We are continuing prototyping, testing, and building our REAPER tech stick. More info coming later, but signs are pointing good. As Earl puts it, “This thing is the first ever pogo stick in history designed and built entirely by pogoers purely for the love of the sport.”

Yes, Vurtego is currently going through some parts shortages, and that may potentially last for a little while. -> (Read More) ->

Flybar Ends Production of the Super Pogo

Posted on by

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.

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) ->

Electric Air Compressors – All the rage!

Posted on by

A year or two ago is when I first started seeing these Electric Air Compressors pop up throughout the community. After a bit of skepticism, I gave one a chance and absolutely loved it. After pogoing for Fifteen years and riding a Vurtego for the majority of that, I grow tired of constantly pumping my Vurtego up to my jumping pressure, only for it to inevitably leak back out because I forgot to tighten something, you get the idea. The cycle is endless. So when I saw these electric pumps I knew I had to get one. After a bit of research, I found a brand I liked online and went for it.

There are a few brands out there currently. I went with the Avid Power model, but I’m sure the Ryobi pump is great, especially if you have other Ryobi tools in your household. An obvious benefit to all of them is of course, that you can pump up tires with it as well. I am a cheapskate who only buys used tires so I am a frequent user of the free Wawa Air pumps. -> (Read More) ->

The Motostik is a historic pogo stick that emerged in 2004, the same year as the Flybar 1200, and was used primarily by many riders in the mid 2000’s. The Flybar 1200 was the very first “Big Air” pogo stick that was released into the market, and the Motostik was almost like a hybrid between a Tech stick and a Big Air stick. A lot of pogoers then were obviously still used to jumping on spring pogo sticks, so the Motostik was a great transition stick into Big Air. We at AllPogo happened to snag an interview with Marc Matson, the mastermind behind the Motostik – a pogo stick that helped propel not only some of the greats of pogo forward, but the sport itself.

What is your history with motocross as far as racing, freestyle, etc.

Marc:

I started racing motocross around 1980… and I still am. I never was really good, but I always brought two pretty girls with me, so I ended up hanging out with a couple brand-name moto guys. -> (Read More) ->
