      I had a Hipity Hop, wow was that awhile back. i probably bounced on a sharp rock around our place and that was the end. Trucks always were going by with loads spilling.

            This was actually one of my proposed adult-sized toys. Along with adult-sized Big Wheel and Slip n' Slide, the fun would never end!*

              I remember these things in the u.k, they were called "space hoppers", what happened to these types of toys, hours of fun!

                  Those things always remind me of the Ghoul.

                    The saddest day of my childhood was the day my Hippity Hop popped:( darn gravel roads in the country! Oh my wonderful grandfather tried to repair the hole with an inner tube patch but alas the patch just wouldn't hold.

                      I thought this was going to be a thread about Charlie's Angels.

                          I used to have one. I think it either got popped or thrown out.
