Skywalker 2.0 Field Testers
Hello All,
I am a product manager for Marshalltown Company and I've been a long time lurker of this forum. I've always appreciated the honest comments the posters make and the constuctive criticism they leave for others to use. Today I've posted myself in hopes of gathering some direct feedback on an improved version of Marshalltown's Skywalker 2.0 stilts. We are looking for field testers to test potential Skywalker 2.0 stilt changes and give us direct feedback. If you are interested in participating we will be letting you keep the stilts we send you! Interested parties can contact me at mnymeyer@marshalltown.com . Please include a daytime contact number. I look forward to hearing you, Mark |

Re: Skywalker 2.0 Field Testers
I have wanted to try them for a cpl years, but have never actually seen any, they are so differant that I have been reluctant to spend the money on them. I currently use the S2 mags, cause they are the most comfortable stilits around. If the skywalkers are better, I would love to try them.

Re: Skywalker 2.0 Field Testers
I heard from one of our testers that they had many sets to send out. I sent Mark a note congratulating him on the program and asked to speak with him on another issue. I haven't heard back yet but they're a big company and sometimes it takes time to turn a large ship. If he can pull it off, he deserves some respect as he will undoubtedly receive grief from somewhere in his company for wanting to "give" equipment away. Few people understand the long term benefit...even in a very successful corporation.

Re: Skywalker 2.0 Field Testers
Thanks for all the interest everyone! I've reached my alloted number of field testers, but I'll still be keeping track of contacts in case we decide to send more pairs out. I'm excited to get the stilts out to everyone and get some constructive feedback.
