leapers
Those who bound
Leapers are people or things that leap—jumping, springing, or bounding.
The word appears in contexts ranging from ballet dancers to frogs to those born on February 29th, who celebrate birthdays only in leap years: Leapers have to decide whether to celebrate on February 28th or March 1st in common years.
