What Xpogo does
Xpogo LLC is a privately held extreme pogo entertainment company headquartered in Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania, operating since 2004. The company's core business is the Xpogo Stunt Team, a roster of championship-level athletes who perform live shows featuring flips, tricks, and stunts on proprietary air-powered and spring-powered pogo sticks capable of reaching 10+ feet of air. Athletes have completed over 13,000 live performances across 26 countries and hold 19 Guinness World Records, supporting bookings across fairs, festivals, amusement parks, NBA/NFL/MLB halftime shows, casinos, corporate events, TV/film productions, and branded content campaigns for clients including Coca-Cola and Dude Perfect.
The company operates four revenue streams: (1) B2B live performance bookings through direct website sales and exclusive fair representation by J International Management; (2) branded merchandise sold direct-to-consumer via an e-commerce storefront, including pogo sticks ($149.99-$499) and apparel ($10-$32); (3) custom branded content production; and (4) Pogopalooza, the annual world championships of extreme pogo held for 20 consecutive years and sponsored by Flybar, Reaper, and AllPogo. The hardware lineup includes the Reaper, Vurtego V4/V4 Pro/Slingshot, and NSG Flight/Grom, with a certified refurbished channel added through a partnership with Reaper Pogo Sticks.
Xpogo is led by CEO Will Weiner alongside co-founders Nick McClintock (Creative Director) and Nick Ryan, supported by a small team of 11-50 employees that includes booking managers and show managers. The firm is founder-managed with no disclosed institutional investment and operates a horizontal GTM across 13 event vertical categories. Trademarks are held on the Xpogo brand, the Xpogo "X" logo, Pogopalooza, and the Xpogo Stunt Team name.
