A two-legged stilt includes a support frame, a foot platform, and a base. The support frame includes first and second parallel leg supports, each having upper and lower sections that are coupled and slide relative to one another whereby a length of each leg support may be varied. The leg supports are pivotably mounted to foot platform and the base for canting of the stilt. A calf support extends from the first upper leg support section and is disposed to extend adjacent the back of a leg of a person using the stilt. Compression springs also are disposed to bias apart the leg support sections of respective leg supports. The calf support may extend coaxially from an upper leg support and include one of the compression springs. One or more torsion springs are disposed to bias the leg supports, the foot platform, and the base into a generally rectangular configuration.
