Put your collective mind power toegether! (need help)

I need some help with this project i'm working on. Our assignment is to update a toy for the 21st century. I've got a Pogo-Stick roughly based on the space shuttle, with rocket boosters attached so as to propel the user skyward. My problem is i can't seem to come up with a catchy title for it. part of the requirements for the project are to create a logo and a catchy new name for the design. Anyone got any ideas? Also, i've been warned by the Prof. that with the word "stick" in Pogo-Stick, to make sure it isn't too suggestive, whether intentional or not.

Thanks

Hmmm....maybe the Pro Go Stick?

Sorry...just what I could think of off-the-cuff.

Just remember to check the O-rings before liftoff.
