im 5'4 trying to make a costume for a 6'2 character cant use heels because theyre a dude that only wears combat boots or converse hope i dont break my damn neck in stilts
@@Armouredbrownies I know how to walk on stilts. What concerns me are the other people at the convention. Some people are well, less than considerate or kind. Falling because someone decides to lunge hug your cosplay? Falling off small stilts hurt. Falling off of some of these? Break a hip?
I know this is old as heck, but I was thinking of making a Fiddlesticks (the new and updated one) cosplay, and thought I could use a tutorial on how these work. Funny thing is, I never even searched for this, youtube gave it to me, which, thinking about it right now, is kind of scary/weird.
This helps a lot when it comes to big armor cosplay. I want to cosplay a space marine some time and they're apparently about 6' 6". My mom wonders why I have to make a costume myself and not buy one, it's because you have to account for this kind of stuff.
omg the pogo stilts look so fun to wear, but know me I'd get tired in like 10 minutes after wearing them. I could see someone maybe using this method for Winston??
Oooo finally someone else who uses jumping stilts for costumes! I've been trying out a pair and I absolutely love them! First time stilts on my end too.
You could probably replace the heels on the boots with clear plastic to create the illusion they're not there. It wouldn't be perfect, but it would be something.
You can also put mirroring on the heels/soles! That is what was done to the Star Wars' "hover" vehicles in the original movies and it creates a decent illusion on shoes as well. Especially if you tilt the mirroring a teeny tiny bit at the top so it is reflecting mostly flooring.
I am 5 ft 11 inches and I am planning on doing a Lady Dimitrescu (From Resident Evil Village) Cosplay I think that this video has helped me decide what type of stilts I shall get for it
THABK YOU SO MUCH! I wanted to do my own space marine cosplay, and When you said the line about plaster stilts for all space marines. It was the exact confirmation I was looking for
TY TY TY!!! My friend's costume theme wedding is next week and this is my first time up on stilts. It's for a costume. I bought the plasterer types to start out with and wore them for the first time today. I loved it! It was a challenge at first but I hope one day to work my way up to the kangaroo type!!!
This is a fantastic overview of the different types of stilts and how they work! Exactly what I was looking for. I do wished that you had included a quick price range on them though. That is always good information to know when trying to decide on a cosplay piece. At least for me and my limited budget. 😊
Funny seeing this, I'm making a short film with college friends and we are making a 4 legged monster using the exact pogo stilt/crutches layout seen here. I've gotten quite good at making an authentic looking animal walk, and have managed to get up to a gallop in them
This is perfect, I’m working on a Dragonborn costume for SuperNova (Australian Convention). I was wondering what stilts would do for my costume and you have made the perfect answer vid and even tried out the dragon bit.
Awesome video! I've been wanting to do a costume with stilts for a while, but for once in my life I couldn't come up with a costume to fit that bill. I think costumes with stilts are often really impressive, and I can't wait to see what you do with yours!
Thanks for the overview! I just got my first pair of spring stilts today and otherwise have used riser boots in the past to gain height for my costumes.
You can get down in jumping stilts a little bit more safely by taking a big long stride, then lowering your back leg onto your knees from that. If you are strong enough and flexible enough to do an even bigger stride (a split almost), you can get down without any impact. Actually the reverse is how you can stand up without support, only that it is way harder to do.
I’m trying to make a character from a horror game that is very tall, but doesn’t have a huge line of site, and this was very helpful to get to know where to start.
I've had this video bookmarked for over a year now, but I've been too intimidated to actually start the cosplay I wanted. Well, I'm happy to say I just got my plasterers'/drywall stilts today! :D They're way too fun to mess around in.
You can do it! The most important part is practice. So many peeps only get up on them to try out their Cosplay costumes. If you get a nice wack of practice outside of costume you'll be more agile, and more safe.
Great video. My next character is 6'7" I'm about a foot shy of that. I think I'm more comfortable with some kind of riser, if I get to 6'0 I'm fine. Thanks again.
Watching a lot of stilt videos because I’m planning to cosplay Night Watch from Identity V decided to go with peg stilts since his are very visible, thank you :}
I'm planning on doing a Obsidian from Steven Universe cosplay and I wanna be a giant woman ((6'2-6'7 is what im aiming for)) and I feel so scared going into stilts- it'll be a fun experience though
Omg, I almost died this myself with the stilts and giant glowing sword! Good luck!! Just practice on then until you feel safe to be around people, don't just jump on them at a con.
1:17... Cool goat feet. 2:33, yes, I was thinking Spacemarines. I'm interested that the Russian army once tried stilt spring boots for their soldiers. Unfortunately, they couldn't get it to work. I guess it's a lot harder than I realised before this video and another I just saw. Guy took an hour to learn to walk a short distance on the more digitigrade stilts. 3:06. Yes, they do look fun, and I have seen those before. I didn't realise how hard they were to use! Could it not be possible to have this with a longer and or wider foot to make them easier? 5:59, Oh! Thank you.
For those stilts where you have to keep moving to keep your balance. Couldn't you also use a staff or stick to lean on? Allowing you to stand still like a tripod?
This was super informative! I’m trying to do a somewhat realistic lady dimitrescu and I’m thinking plasterer stilts are the way to go (probably gonna aim for 6’8 rather then 9’6 if I wear it to a con)
Im trying to pick stilts for huggy wuggy since hes huge 😂 im thinking of going for the plasterer ones so im not worrying about balance as i need to add at least 2 ft to my height I can easily hide them under the fur and dont need to worry about being agile
Ok so I have a question! How in the heck did you make the goat hoofs without heels? Because I'm looking to make a pair of goat hoofs like that but don't know where to start 😫
I am thinking about making a demogorgon cosplay suit, and it'd be awesome if I could make it as much like the demogorgon from the movie (or my references, Dead by Daylight) using stilts! Problem is, I have to make sure which ones I need for this cosplay. If you reference from the DBD demogorgon, or the movie's, they have a very difficult digitigrade leg pattern, where the 'risen ankle' is elongated, much like a horse. And yet it still manages to keep a height. I might use jump stilts for this one..?
I'm use a few different types of stilts but find power bock stilts easiest. I've used them for the last 12 years and can stand pretty much still on them. You should be careful of cheap versions the build quality isn't that great and I know many that have snapped also check the springs as you need the right strength for you weight ( or higher is your not bouncing ? ) I did once run/Admin Powerriser Pages ?
Thanks! this was very informative! If you want to costume over stilts (like the drywall/plaster stilts) with something like a long dress, what are some ways to keep the dress from tripping up the stilts? (besides practicing with them, of course). Could one disguise the bottom of a drywall stilt with a large shoe if you cut out the bottoms?
Awesome video.. mad stilt skilz, I'm thinking of a dog man costume, how to get an authentic hock leg look and go up about a foot whilst disguising the mechanism under a muscled and hair skin suit
There are some production 'were-wolf' stilts you can buy, but they're pretty expensive. I would say if you can get some Cheap Powerbocks like in the video that's your best cheapest bet if you want to buy. Otherwise it's a case of producing your own, which I'm in the process of experimenting but I'm also super poor so need to wait until I can invest in materials again.

I actual want something like this myself and am doing to try and build myself something along those lines soon, maybe I can inspire your custom set
@@Armouredbrownies Thank you so much for your response! And oooh! I'd love to see if and when you do make something like that! Always looking for inspiration.
Hi Stormie Grace, if you are still looking for reverse knee stilts please feel free to check out our website www.digilegs.com or like/ add us on Instagram/ Facebook @digilegs ;-)
One way is if you can incorporate a staff into your costume. The staff provides a third point of balance, so you can use it to stand still. If you're handy, you might try (securely!) attaching broader feet over/in place of the "hooves" of the jump stilts, though that would probably impede the jumping and agility.
Fair :) Got to work to a budget. Have been looking at that style for a while - even considering trying to make something similar - just never have the time :(
ChaosCostumes makes a wooden type that work well. I got a discounted version at a trade show. They're fun, but I have got to do leg work to build up my thighs!
When I do my king jareth cosplay, I could just cheat on my stilts and make a giant cane like he carries lolol. Oooh and I could wear my knee pads from roller skating underneath my costume…
Im not even interested in cosplaying but this was interesting to watch
same, i dont cosplay but i like the idea of stilts LMAO
i just want to go in my backyard and feel tall while wearing stilts
I crave robot legs.
until then this can suffice
I've been told that digi legs are much more tiring than jumping stilts.
Bruh imagine how tall the stilts would have to be to cosplay Lady Dimitrescu hahahahaha
👀👀👀 this is why im here
That’s exactly why I’m here
For me, only 2 inches below 4 ft.
The painters stilts will make me the perfect height for mr x
im 5'4 trying to make a costume for a 6'2 character
cant use heels because theyre a dude that only wears combat boots or converse
hope i dont break my damn neck in stilts

I just want to wear them just to be tall so people finally call me ‘sir’ instead of ‘ma’am’
me too
Why would your height make people call you a ma'am instead of sir? Height has nothing to do with being a boy or girl
How‘s it going, sir?
