What would be the best entry level stilts to try after havin a bad experience on large ones? Looking about crate height.

I bought a pair of dura stilts 20 years ago and still use them. Straps fecked so thanks for spares suppliers tips.

Seen stilts for sale in B n Q for about £80 but dunno if they any good tho
 
I gave my Marshall town Skywalker's stilts to a plumber I know. I tried them on but was too tall for average ceiling height? (6ft2) but I know few of you lads taller than me who use em OK? I'm too clumsy anyway for them things!! The longest I wore those stilts was against my bro in law who also had a pair and we had a race across the pub carpark for a pint! The fat git fell so I won :RpS_thumbup: had most of the pub laughing at us :RpS_laugh:
 
i meant they wont last as a sponsor lol. mine were £50 off ebay 8-9 years ago and when I was on site they were getting used daily. paid for themselves time and time again. @stuart23 get either 15-23" or 18-30". I genuinely don't think the extra money for expensive stilts is worth it

@beddy, I know you were talking bout sponsors :RpS_tongue: Was just saying £300 for something that lasts 20 yrs+ ain't bad value. Saying that, if the £50 jobbies last that long it's a no brainier. No need to bring them in from the van every night aswell :RpS_thumbsup:

Has anyone tried them wide leg straps you can get now on ebay? Think theyre velcro. look much more comfortable than the regular strap and only a tenner!

I've just had a pair but not put them on yet. In the picture they look padded but they aren't it's just a Velcro strap. You could make them yourself easily. (Wel get the mrs to sew some up)
