could my 9 year old handle these? She is tall for her age and weighs 100 pounds. She has regular stilts that she loves and uses now.

My son was 13 when we got these for him. If she already has stilts and can navigate the height/balance thing, she should be fine. Have her start out slow - on grass- until she gets the hang of it... and make her wear a helmet!!!

I am not sure, as I purchased them for my 12 year old daughter who was 95 lbs at the time. Sorry that I could not help.

Yes! These ones would be perfect for you! As far as foot size goes, don't worry. The stilts adjust. I have never seen these in store anywhere. Best bet would be to buy offline.

My daughter was 9 years old, weigh 70lb, height 55in last year. She is regular build and the Medium fits her with long underwear and fleece sweater underneath. There is still some room for her to grow into it this year. The length of these pants were slightly long last year but with boots on it was ok.

They aren't too big.. It may be hard for him/her to maneuver a little at first. I have a gcc and she does well.. honestly, he/she would probably be fine. :) hope that helps

I don't think so. It seemed a bit low for my daughter who was around that height. It won't last much longer beyond 5yrs old at this stage.

It depends on the size of the child of course. (Yesterday, my 10 year-old grandson stood next to a six year-old who had him by twenty pounds.) In general though I agree that they will be bigger than ideal for a child six or younger. That doesn't mean they are not useable, in fact my granddaughter seems to like that big look and feel.)

This would work great for a nine-year old. It will even accommodate adults! Even though I bought one for my 3-year old grandson, my daughter can ride it. They are very heavy duty. I think your nine-year old will love it.

Yes I believe they could if they are pretty steady on their feet. Otherwise, this is in my opinion a little light and would not be much support. It's cute but really smaller than I would have liked for my granddaughter. She was 1 1/2 when I bought it for her. I've since seen ones I liked better at other stores.

the ones I got and had to return ran very small for their size. I would say go up one or even two sizes... but they also run more toward lean kid... if got any kinda size that's not thin, you might have a problem... going up in size to fit body will prob make legs long....

Yes. For sure. My 7-year-old and 5-year-old ride them perfectly (they're both over four ft tall, though). Unless he's small for his age, it'll probably be too small.

I purchased the 158-198 lbs stilts; I am 165lbs. Though they have excellent spring, you have to put some force into them to get the desired propulsion (Your son will also have to get used to jumping and bringing the weight down on his heals instead of his toes). But once you get bouncing, you really get some air (mid air balance is sketchy at first). Just note, they are a bit heavy, so he shouldn't expect to be back flipping right away.Otherwise..great purchase, I was just using them this weekend.He's basically at the max capacity of the lighter model, but if he'll be gaining any weight, I woulnd't recommend the lighter version, since they could break.Hope this was helpfulHappy holidays!

She should be fine. I use them for my son's 7th & 8th grade flag football team. All my players can wear them just fine. My biggest kid is probably 5"11 160 lbs.

I purchased these for my son who weighs158- 165 pounds, he said the actual stilts are not heavy, if you are the lighter side then you may need to use more leg strength when you use them. 1 pound = 2.2kg
