FBSPORT Inflatable Air Gymnastics Mat Training Mats 4/8 inches Thickness Gymnastics Tracks for Home Use/Training/Cheerleading/Yoga/Water with Pump

I'm not a Cheer Dad but my daughter does competitive cheer. I'm a basketball Dad but was called upon to help my daughter through her mental blocks in RO+BHS. If you're reading this and you're in the Cheer rabbit hole, you know what I'm talking about. For two years, my daughter could not throw this level 2 skill but she's able to do a whole bunch of level 3 skill that don't involve BHS. All of this was literally tearing the family apart as my wife (a Cheer Mom) is freaking out and upset, while my daughter is has lost all confidence and crying. Ok so I dramatized all this but those of you know..... know how it's not too far from the truth. I'm not saying this will save the day but it's a needed tool to safely practice tumbling outside of the gym.This mat is as good as the expensive air tracks you find in the gyms. You don't need to spend thousands to get a good mat. Some tips for new folks. Generally, thicker means it's bouncier and usually you want this for younger athletes as they are starting out. Thinner or less thick means it's firmer and therefore closer to an air floor and like the tumble track in the gym. So this is meant for older and more experienced athletes. Controlling power through tumbling will become the big challenge through tumbling development As for length, get what you can afford and what fits for your environment. But if you buy too short and need to extend, you can get a second one and connect them. For length, you need to figure out the tumbling combos you plan to practice, especially if you're doing running tumbling. You can do most standings. it's all about how much space you need. My daughter is a 7th grader (she's small) and we got the 16' length. It's enough to do a RO+BHS out of a lunge. But with a power hurdle start, it's barely enough. 16' for her is enough for a two combo tumbling run although she has done some triple combos barely. We are at a point where I may get another 10'-16'. These mats are pretty durable as we use it exclusively outside on the lawn. We've so far used it during Spring and hot Summer days. Inflation and deflation is super easy. It was $$ well spent. It seems very durable to me so far. Rubber material reminds of of the old inflateables rafts we used to take to the river or beach when I was young.With this tool, it allowed me to work with my daughter at home and get her through her tumbling blocks. We now use it to refine technique and practice. I have no doubt that we will use it for however long she does cheer and it's something we use at least 3 times a week if not more. She loves it as she can work on specific skills on her own. I highly recommend this purchase as a key training/practice tool for anyone serious about cheer (or gymnastics).Some CONS:- It's heavy- it does not fit the bag when rolled up

Good price, easy to set up, granddaughter lovespurple color, very durable.

An excellent purchase for our young gymnast. The PVC tarpaulin is extremely thick and durable. This is not a flimsy inflatable. The mat comes with an air pump which can easily inflate the mat in seconds. It also comes with a nice carrying bag for travel. The mat also comes with a tool kit for repairs, if needed. The mat will hold its inflation for days with our gymnast jumping and tumbling all over it.

We compete and train multiple days a week. This helps work on the skills outside studio hours. Great quality. Easy toPut up and store. Love the long length for running into tricks. Absolutely recommend!

Best purchase for my daughter. Good quality and so easy to inflate and deflate. Comes with a great bag to store it in. Highly recommend.

Got this mat as one of my daughters Christmas presents. The mat itself is great. Durable, creates a really nice firm yet springy surface. Love that it can be deflated for easy storage. The pump on the other hand we were really dissappointed in. The first time we used it pieces of plastic were breaking off, and have continued to do so ever since. Very brital material. At this point we have to hold each section together as it no longer locks into place. Hoping i can find a comparable third party pump so we can actually continue to use the Mat. They sell replacements on the website but assuming it’s the same quality, i won’t pay for it.

Got this for grand baby and she loves flipping on it.

This was a perfect addition for our kids. They are both in gymnastics and cheer, so having the track at their fingertips to practice has greatly improved their confidence and skills on the floor! Would highly recommend!

Bought this for my daughter she loves it, had for a couple months and hasn’t leaked!
