Guys… The spring shoes don’t work.
I mean, they might work, but anyone who uses them is pretty much guaranteed to break both ankles in the process.
Plus, our construction plan didn’t work out, so Wyatt suggested we just duct tape the fuck out of it. (He didn’t say it that way, but that’s what he meant.)
Rather than slick-looking spring shoes you might see James Bond use to leap into a second story window, we ended up with janky-ass white trash junkyard shoes that will get you a ride to the emergency room.

They make the wearer so unstable, you can’t even stand in these things. He and I both tried. The springs are just too… well, springy.
The good news is Boone got a valuable lesson in the benefit of failure. We had to back out of the science fair, but he’s just happy and proud that we tried.
