My 6 yr old daughter was using her pogo stick in the garage. The pogo stick slipped out from under her and she landed flat on top of it. Her chin was cut open and bleeding profusely, so we went to the ER. The ER dr. was wavering between stiches or glue and decided to go with glue and steri strips. Unfortunately, we had to return to the doctor the next day because the wound was oozing and not staying together. At that point, it was too late for stitches, so they redressed the wound. When we returned home, I examinded the "crime scene". I discovered that the pogo stick stopper was worn out and the metal of the pogo stick was exposed. I was very upset and there was blood on the pogo stick, so I threw it away. In hind site, I should've kept it and researched a recall. My mom received a call from Target notifying her of a recall for a pogo stick that was purchased on a gift card that she had purchased. When she called to tell me about the call, I then went on line to research it. So, we do have proof of the purchase, and I have the ER documents stating why she was in there, but I don't have the actual pogo stick.

The rubber cap of the Bravo sports pogo stick has worn off. The metal tube of the pogo stick pushed through the rubber cap so that the metal pogo stick hits the ground. This could cause the pogo stick to slip and also damages the ground. My sons pogo stick is newer than the ones listed in the recall but experiences the same problem.

My son was playing on his bravo cars pogo stick the other day and fell and hit his tail bone on his bottom two times and fall again hard on his knees the other. By that time I was wondering what was going on..if it was my son or the pogo stick. I check out the pogo stick to find that the bottom rubber was not on the tip anymore but had a hole in it, which slid up the bottom so the pogo stick was bare metal and was slipping on the pavement. This pogo stick is unsafe and luckily I make my child wear a helmet because there could have been a more severe injury.

Pogo stick rubber base was penetrated by the steel shaft creating an unsafe slippery condition. My daughter 9 yo, 61 lbs, suffered a concussion and broke her nose after the pogo stick violent slid out from under her. The steel shaft had penetrated the rubber base and was not protruded, easily seen or an obvious to casual inspection. There was no warning or instruction that this had to be inspected or replaced, especially since it was not very visible.

Both of my children received the street flyers double pogo stick - blue as a Christmas gift. Now that the weather has warmed my son was using his and having a great time. Unfortunately the bottom rubber stopper has fallen off both pogo sticks. My son was not hurt, but as I have read other reviews of this product I know that this is a common problem. The rubber stopper is not welded appropriately and when it falls off can pose a safety hazard as children may bounce right on it. In addition there is a screw that sticks out of the stopper that could be dangerous if a child falls on it.

We bought Airzone Titan pogo stick (black-yellow with yellow foam grips) in Toys"R"Us shop two months before the accident. My nine years old son was bouncing on the pogo stick when top holder of the spring (bolt) got out and the spring hit my son right in genital area. Fortunately there was no serious injuries (only cuts and bleeding) but we had to go to emergency room to make sure that everything is good. I believe the spring must be secured with no chances to get out of its place. Otherwise much more serious injuries can happen.

Disney Princess pogo stick purchased at Kmart. 9 year old daughter fell on her face when pogo stick slipped out from under her. She received 12 stitches in her lip and chin. She was wearing a helmet and I witnessed the incident. The next morning I discovered that the rubber cup was completely worn away which caused her to violently slip on the concrete. I had only bought the pogo stick 5 days before and she may have used it only for an hour or two. She weighs 72 pounds and the pogo stick says it is rated up to 80 pounds. The rubber tip was the only part that tore away. The sides of the cup were still visible, which leaves you to believe the part is still intact. I can GUARANTEE that this will happen again to other children. Didn't they test this toy to see that it would last longer than1 hour before it becomes unsafe? Who is in charge of this testing? They are idiots. Having Disney's logo on it does not help. That tends to make you think of safe products. You do not need to have thousands of similar results to see that this toy will harm children. Please!!!!! get this product out of stores or have them replace the rubber bottom with something substantial.

My daughter fell on a pogo Stick by Bravo Sports. She is 8 years old and was gravely injured by this pogo stick. Two teeth were knocked in and she suffered lacerations to the face, the loss of blood caused her to go into shock and breifely faint. We have large medical bills of and Bravo Sports has not paid one penny to help our family. We were forced to hire an attorney.
