When I was in Jacksonville looking for something to do to occupy my Friday afternoon before my last two visits, I heard of the Pogopalooza festival.
Pogo, or Xpogo, is an extreme sport one practices on pogo sticks. I know, not very clear so far but you’ll see ^.^ and Pogopalooza is their annual competition with 3 categories, Freestyle, High Jump and Best Trick.
A little “official” video for you to see some of that weekend’s events:

With my mother, we witnessed, among other things, the world record highest jump on a pogo stick, 10 feet .5 inches, tied by 2 riders: Dmitry Arsenyev et Biff Hutchison.

It was quite nice, we quickly get into it (I admit at first I thought it was a bit stupid, I went out of curiosity) and it is in fact a real sport.
For example, in the morning at 6 o’clock, Casie Merza started jumping on her stick to beat the world record for most consecutive jumps on a pogo stick to raise funds for the Children’s Hospital in Tampa, she broke that record nearly 9 hours later! If you want to beat her now, you will have to do more than 75005 jumps!
The next day my mother went back to see the Freestyle competition while I was on visitation with A.
