Stilts change the two things a walker takes for granted: eye height and balance. A pair of them makes a walk across the square a performance, a doorway a puzzle and a fall a small event. It is a movement toy that fits the existing body rather than a new vehicle.

How it fits. The walker has a support height, a stride and a fall. Stilts raise the eye and the feet, narrow the support to two points and add a wobble that grows with speed and turning. The legs need a pose that reaches the stilts; the rest is the existing animation. Falling off is a stance change, not a new death state.

Scope.

  • Mount, walk, turn and dismount.
  • A wobble that a quick turn or a curb can turn into a fall.
  • Stairs are off limits; a ramp is a challenge.
  • A street performer's hat and a small crowd reaction.
  • A shop pair painted like the association colors.

Related. #244 (pogo), #213 (climbing), #180 (tricks), #205 (social emotes).
