Hey Dave, Be careful…

Streetplay Discussion Archive Posted on January 4, 2001 by Streetplay DiscussionsJanuary 4, 2001

Hey Dave, Be careful with that Stunt Pogo-ing, your mom might want to have grandchildren one day. Ha, ha. Ripping pogo sticks in two, were you listening to hardcore on your portable dvd while riding? sounds like an repressed agression issue…aka a guy thing. My young son exhibits this fuhrer too,in sports. I do remember needing to do any sport I was into until I felt like I would nearly burst a lung… laps in an olympic pool, skating, laps on the track… inexhaustible energy. But seriously, enjoy your youth! I know I sure did.

Streetplay Discussion Archive Posted on January 3, 2001 by Streetplay DiscussionsJanuary 3, 2001

We also had three other favorite tricks. One was to paint a doorknob. People would then get paint on their hand. The other was to tie a piece of fishing line to a dollar bill, and let some fool chase it. The last, was to tir a piece of fishline across two trees, so that it would knock off the people’s hats as they walked by.

Streetplay Discussion Archive Posted on January 3, 2001 by Streetplay DiscussionsFebruary 16, 2019

I used to live in the Linden Housing projects. We used to tie two doorknobs together, and then ring both doorbells. After a bit of tugging, the neighbors would eventually co-ordinate an effort to cut the rope. This would enable them to open their doors, but by that time we would be gone.

Streetplay Discussion Archive Posted on January 1, 2001 by Streetplay DiscussionsOctober 20, 2014

Howdy. I teach kids fitness classes as well as adults. What I have found is that adults love the kids classes more than the kids do!! I use hoola hoops, moon shoes and am thinking of incorporating hippity hops and pogo sticks. I also use agility ladders and use bands as a form of “chinese jump ropes” remember them? Thanks for the tip on how to make my own hoola hoops…heading for the hardware store tomorrow…do you put beads or anything in them? ellen (43 and still playing)
