It just popped into my head out of nowhere as do most of my childhood memories, but I can't for the hell of me remember what it was called. It was like a largish ball with a disk in the middle, the bottom part of the ball was bigger. The whole idea was to stand on the and bounce. |

I know I fell *beep* over tit on them a few times. I think my old one is still hiding in my parents shed. Just wish I remembered what it was called in the first place. |

Wow, they're still about? Didn't expect that. But not surprised by the name change, at least I swear that wasn't what they were called. |

I recall that mine was a bright pink ball, and a yellow disc. Even remember attempting to use a skipping rope at the same time

Had one that was a red ball with a black ring. Couldn't get on with it and eventually got rid of it. |

Mine is probably still knocking about in my parents shed. Last I saw it, it had faded a fair bit. |
