Get ready to jump for joy at the 360 Pogo Jumpathon.

Ngong Ping 360 has brought an American pogo performance team, the Pogo Dudes, to Hong Kong to show off their high-flying tricks. These guys aren't amateurs hopping around on pogo sticks. They hold numerous Guinness World Records, including most synchronised and most consecutive backflips, and highest jump on a pogo stick. They can jump more than 2.4 metres high while performing flips and kicks on their pogo sticks. It's an unmissable sight.

The Pogo Dudes perform three times a day, until May 13, at Ngong Ping Village. You can also give the pogo a go at a free workshop.

Disney to the rescue

Mobile phones, iPods, cameras ... we carry a lot of electronics with us, but you might want to add another: a portable charger. Most are clunky and look generic - until now. The Disney Portable Mobile Charger will save the battery life of your phone, and look cute while doing it. Featuring characters such as Stitch and the green alien from Toy Story, the handy device works with most electronics, including the iPhone, and Nokia, Samsung, LG and Motorola phones. It can also be used to recharge iPads, iPods, PSPs, Nintendo DS consoles and certain cameras as well. At 74 grams, it's not heavy, and needs only four hours to fully charge. Talk about efficient and fashionable.

The chargers sell for HK$268 from City Super and Log-On.
