Hockern is essentially extreme sitting, where athletes perform a series of tricks and stunts with a special stool called a Sporthocker. At the end of a set of tricks, the athlete comes to a stop in a sitting position on the stool. it's about being creative with this weirdly shaped tool..."It is a movement, a trend, a new sport. "Hockern" describes a new way to perform acrobatic tricks with a specially designed stool using natural obstacles like chairs, rails or walls."- Inventor of Sporthocker..I say- Get a skateboard or BMX mate and stop trying to cut corners.
