Mine had a strawberry instead. Was it name the same? I don't think so.

I had one of these. It hung on a nail in the garage. I didn't know anybody that was coordinated enough to actually use it the right way. When we did play with it, it usually ended up as a weapon of some sort. It was always getting launched at somebody's head!

I had one lemon thing like this! I was not bad at it, or...so I thought! I loved playing with it. I actually think this is the type of toy that kids needs nowadays!!!

My FAVORITE toy...I skipped this thing every day for an entire summer. I'd love to find one!

I loved this toy when I was about eight or nine. I can't find any listings whatsoever on ebay for this. It must be pretty rare these days, unfortunately. Why does it seem that they don't make toys like they used to back in the 70s and 80s?

i love these things. there a great outdoor toy for kids. it gets them out of the house and makes the exercise.

I absolutely loved my lemon twister. I used it so much that I wore it out and my mom had to get me a new one. However, I had mine in the mid- 70's, not 80's like this website said.

I had a lemon one too, but in the mid to late '70's. I'm sooo excited today becuase I found new ones (similar, but not the same) at Walgreen's this morning - called the Cosmic Hopper - WOO HOO

WOOOOOOOOOWWWY !!!!!!!!!!YES!!!the internet is the BOMB!i was born in 72 i was telling my hubby about this lemon toy.I couldn't remember the name.I am glad to have found out...i told him i thought it had a counter on the lemon(that would count the jumps you did)I guess i remembered wrong.YOu just have to count them yourself.I totally liked this toy as a kid(not positive cuz I don't have a detailed memory,but i believe mine was most likely from late 70's)

No, you don't remember wrong!!! I never had one, but remember them well. Maybe there were some that didn't have a counter, but I remember a commercial that showed them with a counter.

I loved mone, too- I'd love to have another, and would buy one for my 3 kids & their friends, too. They worked perfectly. Other plastic varieties are too hard and hurt my ankles

This was my favorite toy EVER! I went through about 3 of them. I kept leaving them in the driveway and my Dad would run over them with the truck. Mine was in the 70's too though. Wish I had one now! I'd still play with it!
