abstract:The Flybar, is a modification of the traditional pogo stick design which allows riders to propel themselves up to a world record 8 feet 6 inches into the air according to the Flybar's website. Developed in a collaborative effort between SBI Enterprises, Bruce Middleton and Andy Macdonald, it utilizes in place of the usual steel spring in a regular pogo stick 12 elastic bands used for propulsion, also known as thrusters.
Marlet saw a deflected volley fly over the bar at the other end, while Newcastle's fans felt they were denied another penalty following an apparent handball in the box.
