The Flybar Pogo Stick was created in 2004. However, production and layouts for this pogo stick had started years before. You can learn more about Flybar at the Wikipedia. Once on the website, type "Flybar" into the search bar at the top of the page and press enter to bring up the information.
Gary Stewart used a Flybar 1000 pogo stick to set the record for the highest jump on a pogo stick.
Probably Flybar. They're the biggest company.
I personally find the flybar 800 is better. I did a review of both of them on my site and I have used both but the flybar 800 I get higher on. I guess it is up to you to choose.
3.5 to 4.5 feet highly depending on weight of the rider and experience and practice.
No, a pogo stick is more of an avtivity than a toy. :)
A bag of sugar !
I am not sure where your pogo stick ended up. Perhaps you could ask your parents or look on eBay or in flea markets for a similar pogo stick if you would like to find a similar pogo stick.
George Hansburg did. He made the master pogo stick
Many of the typical versions do, but some of the more advanced ones do not, such as the Flybar 1200 model, which uses giant rubber bands.
