Jumbo 60-Piece Tumble Tower, 7.15-inch blocks, stacks past 5 ft

The long version

Blocks seven and a sixth inches long, sixty of them, and a tower that goes past five feet while still standing on a patch of grass the size of a doormat. Everything about this set is a step up from the ones below it, and so is the space you need to play it safely.

A jumbo block has more mass behind every pull. That changes the game: you feel the whole tower shift through your fingertips before anything moves, and a bad pull comes down with a sound you hear from the house. We tell people to clear a metre on every side and keep small children at the fence line for exactly that reason.

Dice and a scoreboard come in the bag, so you can run the same custom rules as the five-foot set — colours, double pulls, forfeits written on the board before anyone touches a block.

The stock is premium pine, kiln-dried before it is cut so the blocks stay square through a wet autumn. No splitting, no cracking, no hooks on the corners. It is the set we send to the events that run all weekend.
