Rock N Hopper

Moon hopper

You may remember this strange creature when it was known as a pogo ball, a lolo ball, a moon hopper or even a disc-o. Now it's back and Urban Outfitters have decided to call it a Rock N Hopper.

The look and the principle remain unchanged. For those who spent many happy hours bouncing around on one in the 80's, you'll know the aim is to balance on the disc, gripping the rubber ball with your feet and to jump up and down. And that's it, though it's much easier to describe than to do.

This revival is aimed solely at the adults the model isn't suitable for under eights  and for those who are willing to spend £22 on reminiscing over a forgotten favourite.
