Is it good for a big &amp; strong 15 yr old?

this bow is more appropriate for younger kids, more like 7-10. For a 15yr old I'd be looking at a low end adult bow, maybe 40-60lb draw depending on the size of the boy. A decent take-down bow in the 35-40lb range might be a good option if you are looking at something portable and not compound

Both my daughters and my 14 year old grandson use and enjoy it, they are 5'1" and 5'2" tall. So you will be happy. Also they can read or watch TV while getting their workout.

it depends on your fitness level. also if you have any back problems or joint issues I would say no! It is a good workout; really good. however, teenager to 40ish unless you are in tip top shape. (my opinion) leslie sansone (walking for abs) has a good workout that is also challenging with 1 minute intervals of jogging. great for your abs and total body. also fast results- guaranteed results within 10 workouts- tried and tested. I switch because of my adhd lol. for more challenge (but less difficult than shuan t's insanity), beach body has a great workout dvd called fat blaster that is as effective as insanity without the pesky frog jumps lol. good luck! it depends on your fitness level. also if you have any back problems or joint issues I would say no!

Definately. This pole is just fine for an 15 year old, my 17 year old son often uses this pole

yes, it was for my 10 year old son and it works well. may not work well for larger adults.

I'd say yes. My 15year-old daughter loves hers. It's adjustable enough to fit her, she's small for her age.

It would depend on your weight but if your 90lb or more I would recommend something with a larger / stronger motor. My son is turning 13 soon and with his recent growth spurt is getting too big.

I don't feel it was made for adults, however, if you are under 180lbs, I think it would hold up.

Yes. Great for any age. It is adjustable and very sturdy. Highly recommend.

It is designed to withstand 850 pounds but that does not include a sudden jerk on the line which can triple the load. A 150 pound child should be fine depending on how long the descent is going to be. Or if the line will be left to weather etc.

no I bought it for my 3yo and it is definitely for her size. A 14yo wouldn't get in the seat not to mention the added weight. Not a suitable buy for your needs

My son has one and it is durable. I bought it for him a year ago and it is wonderful. He is 25 and about 140lbs.

My 9 year old daughter uses it primarily for extra conditioning outside the gym, but she also does basic level 3 & 4 skills on it and it is stable. For higher level skills with more power or a heavier gymnast, you'd probably need to stabilize it a little more.

It's for up to 1st graders, not adults, to small, however, it's extremely well built and strong enough to hold 150 lb adult

Yes...my son is almost ten and it is a good viable option. It is a strong board and yet rolls well. He will not outgrow it anytime soon.

Absolutely not.... I weight 150lb and 5'9 and it's too narrow for me... It's good for middle school kids to start training with.

Unless you are a regular weight lifter I wouldn't recommend it, and I am pretty sure he exceeds the weight limit, anyhow. I was no longer comfortable carrying my son for any length of time in a front carry after he was 15lbs; he's about 25 lbs and this *may* help a bit with a hip carry still. You should look for a toddler soft structured carrier (I think most are rated up to 40 lbs), or I think a Storchenwiege wrap could work. Either way, you'll have to shell out around $150-180 new for a carrier that will work for you. The structured carriers are very nice for back carries if you need to carry him for a longer period of time.
