Kangoo Jumps
Q: Is it difficult to learn how to use the Kangoo Jumps?
Not at all. You will feel comfortable and safe only after a few minutes of use. The soles being wider than your shoes, you feel very stable.
Q: Can Kangoo Jumps be used by anyone?
Yes, they are for all ages, all levels of abilities. We have Kangoo Jumps for every body weighing at least 45 lbs! Simply tell us your weight and your athletic shoe size. We will send you the perfect pair! Warning: As with all exercise, people with health problems should first consult their doctor.
Q: How high can you jump with the Kangoo Jumps?
They are not really designed for jumping very high, but for jogging, aerobic ("Kangoo'Robics"), cross training, dancing, and enjoying a feeling of "moon walking". The height of the jumps depend on the strength of the tension springs you adjust on your Kangoo Jumps, and the energy you develop (you can buy additional tension springs and accessories for more extreme uses).
Q: Do doctors recommend the use of Kangoo Jumps?
Yes they do, for several reasons! It is rebound exercise! (refer to: 33 Ways).
Q: How about the quality of the Kangoo Jumps?
They are made of the best materials available. The hard shell boot, for instance, is made of P.U., which is about 3 times more expensive than the materials used for most in-line skates. Kangoo Jumps have been used by the exercise and recreation markets for years and have been put under very severe strain tests:
They are currently used by marathon runners with distances of at least 10 km per day.
They are used in fitness clubs for up to 3 hours per day, on a regular basis.
Like any other quality product, Kangoo Jumps must be properly maintained.

| Yes of course! Those people who are overweight and have not had any regular exercise for a period of time should start using their Kangoo Jumps for 3 to 5 minutes a session repeating 2 to 3 times a day and gradually increase to 12 to 15 minutes. Never exceed your level of comfort.

| This is due to the Kangoo Jumps correcting the imbalances in your posture. This discomfort is only temporary and will eventually go away after you have used your Kangoo's regularly. Though, it is important to remember to not over do it on your Kangoo Jumps. Start off by using them for 3 to 5 minutes a session, repeating 2 to 3 times a day and gradually increase to 12 to 15 minutes. Never exceed your level of comfort. Though, in many cases non-sportive people have reported no discomfort after using KJ's for the first time. |

| It is normal for first time users of Kangoo Jumps to experience some discomfort . This is due to the fact that the user is exercising muscles that they may not have, for some time and the foot needs a little time to adapt. However, some users do experience discomfort in the arches of their feet if they have fallen arches or flat feet. In which case, we recommend that you use a support inside the Kangoo Jump Boot. If this is not the case with you, then it may be that you just need to continue to use the Kangoo Jumps. Your foot will adapt and the discomfort will go away. We must stress though, that if the arch of your foot is rubbing and it feels like you may get a blister then, you should get a support because this proves the theory that you have a flatter foot on either side. - Make sure your Kangoo Jumps are not too big for your size. They should rather be a little tight than loose. - Make sure you are not tightening your straps and buckles too tight. Kangoo Jumps should be a snug fit. |

| At first the T-Springs on your Kangoo Jumps may feel a little hard. After you use them a few times the bands will "soften" and you should be able to compress them quite easily. If you still feel you are struggling to compress the Kangoo Jumps, you can remove the center band on the T-spring and this will make it easier to compress . If you have purchased the KJ5Pro2 model then you should write to us with your weight and shoe size, and we can advise you on what to do. |

| The height of your jumps depends largely on the strength of the tension springs on your Kangoo Jumps, plus the energy you develop (you can buy additional tension springs and accessories for more extreme uses).It is very important to note: the Kangoo Jumps are not really designed for jumping high, but rather for jogging, aerobic exercise (Kangoo TTR), cross training or dancing. |

| When your buckles are difficult to snap, they are lacking lubricant. The buckles need only a very slight amount of lubricant. Usually, if you apply a very small amount of silicone lubricant to the metal hook below the buckle, this will solve the problem. . Never use car oil or similar to lubricate your buckles and never get oil on your soles. |
| ||||||||||
| This is the component that needs the most attention. We recommend that you replace your T-springs after approximately 50 to 80 Hours of use. You can extend the life of your T-Springs by cleaning the shell junction area regularly, especially if you use your Kangoo Jumps outside on dusty or sandy paths. To remove dust, use a clean paint brush and brush away any accumulated debris from the junction point It is also a good idea to Turn your T-Springs occasionally. You can use your T-Springs until they eventually snap. However, you will not get an effective rebound from a T-Spring that is heavily worn. |

| It is normal for shells to break after a certain period of time, which may vary depending on various factors. The material has it's limits. If however, your shell has broken within the 3 month warranty period, it is possible that this breakage is due to an injection problem in the material and we will replace your broken shell free of charge. To prolong the Life of your shell you should make sure that you change your t-springs regularly. If you are running long distances, it would be advisable to change your shells at regular times. Or, if you want to use them till they break for economical reasons, carry 1 shell and 1 allan key with you when you go out (the new KJ Jog Belt has a feature for this). |
| ||||||||||
| You should clean your Kangoo Jumps with a very mild detergent and warm water solution. If you use your Kangoo Jumps on or near to the beach, you should do this at the completion of your workout.. In addition, you should disassemble them and clean thoroughly the T-spring and Shell Junction. This will prevent premature wearing out of the T-Spring. When your Kangoo Jumps are dry, you should lubricate your buckles with a small amount of silicone lubricant. You can remove dust from your Kangoo Jumps using a clean paint brush. |

| You can use Kangoo Jumps in the cold. We recommend not using them at a temperature below - 5 C. The lower the temperature, the more difficult they are to compress, and the shells have a higher tendency to break. This is inherent to any material. Kangoo Jumps are also being used on snow. No problem as long as you remember that snow can be very slippery and use them at your own risk. You don't need to leave the Kangoo Jumps in the cold before using them. Rather on the contrary: leave them in a heated room before using them in the cold. This way they will compress in the usual way. The material heats up while being used, so that it will stay warm WHILE being used. |

| The replacement clamps will appear to be too small and you will assume they will not fit. However it is necessary for the material to be stretched when they are assembled so that, the sole is held in place tightly. Detach the lower shell. When replacing the clamps, the clamp has to be pushed on to the shell as far as it will go, do this by pushing it against the edge of a table. Position the sole then, taking a flat head screw driver, lever over the clamp to hold the sole in place. ) To order replacement clamps contact info@kangoojumps.com |

| As scientific studies show, you spend about 20% more calories with Kangoo Jumps compared to the sames exercises made with conventional shoes. However, this alone does not explain the dramatic weight loss overweight individuals experience when they use Kangoo Jumps. The secret lies in the lymphatic systems: The lymph is the liquid which circulates in-between our cells, to carry the wastes and toxins, out of our body, keeping it healthy. Most of us are unaware that our bodies contain five times as much lymph fluid as blood. However our lymphatic system, which is also our immune system, does not have a pump, like the heart, to keep its liquid in motion. It depends on our natural movements for circulation! If we don’t move enough, excess levels of toxin actually clutters or poisons our lymphatic system. In some places the lymph fluid actually crystallizes into cellulite, which many of us know is hard to eliminate….. Rebound exercise, with Kangoo Jumps, has been found to be the most effective way to “re-prime the pump” and keep it going. The lymphatic system also monitors our metabolism. It’s hard to ignore - as we get older, we seem to put on more weight, which become harder and harder to lose. Studies have shown that our base metabolic rate, which is the rate that our bodies burn calories, decreases as our lymphatic system becomes less efficient As our this system improves, the increased transfer of nutrients and oxygen into each cell actually helps to remove toxins from our body. With regular use of Kangoo Jumps, our base metabolic rate will become increasingly more efficient, resulting in noticeable improvements in our muscle tone, and weight management. In fact, we are actually re-training each cell to perform as it did when we were younger. Once we have re-set our metabolism, we will burn more calories at higher rate, whether we are exercising or not! At least for a certain time. |
| ||||||||||
| With Kangoo Jumps, every single cell of your body gets a full workout. Which means that, all the muscles of your body are being firmed up simultaneously, with each bounce you do. N.A.S.A quotes "Rebound Exercise is the most efficient and effective form of exercise ever divised by men". |
| ||||||||||
| Kangoo Jumps are very stable and safe because their soles are as wide as those of conventional shoes. They don't require any act of balance. You learn how to use them in a matter of minutes. |
| ||||||||||
| Because Kangoo Jumps protect your joints ! Their patented IPS (Impact Protection System) reduces the Impact to the ground by up to 80% , which makes Kangoo Jumps the lowest impact shoes in the World. A scientific study made at UBC University - Canada, with 2 groups of students, one group wearing Kangoo Jumps, the other conventional running shoes, shows that, during the 3 months of the study, 42% of those wearing conventional running shoes got injured, while 0% of those using Kangoo Jumps got any injury. |

| The trend is growing at a rapid pace, one of the key elements being, that buyers love them so much that they recommend them to all their friends! To get an idea you may want to have a look at some of the hundreds of spontaneous, unsolicited testimonials we receive. People want to have fun when they exercise. Kangoo Jumps alleviate two major issues with physical training – boredom and safety! |
