Abstract: A smart phone or other portable device (104, 106, 108) is used to identify exercises, moves or other tricks performed by a user of sporting equipment such as an exercise apparatus (110, 112, 114). The device may be on the user or mounted as part of the equipment. A gyroscope, accelerometer or other type of sensor (138) is used to recognize actions performed with the apparatus, such as flips, spins or other tricks performed with bicycles, pogo sticks, and the like. Feedback on the exercise performance may be provided to the user and/or published on a social networking website (102, 150). The device may act as a training aid, providing quality scores and data regarding the exercises. The device may be integrated into the body of the equipment. A processor (126) may monitor movements of the equipment. Such movements may be classified as a specific type of trick.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pogo stick structure, more particularly, a pogo stick comprising a housing unit, foot support plate, piston, spring mechanism, and handlebars. The external portion of the housing unit includes a plurality of LED lights that light in accordance with the piston impinging the ground. LED lights displayed on the housing may be of different colors and may be arranged in a multitude of ways. Furthermore, the displayed LED lights may light in different patterns and at different times as a result of an electronic processing unit. A foam layer may cover the housing and protect the lights from accidental damage. The foam layer and lights may also be used with other entertainment devices such as stick horses.
