We Sell Mats Thick BiFolding Gymnastics Crash Landing Mat Pad

This is an EXCELLENT mat. Truly, we have three We Sell Mats products now and have been happy with all of them. We got the 4x8 size, 4" thick for under a standard size kip bar. The size couldn't be more perfect. At least the 4" thick one is halfway between a crash pad and a regular mat; it's not as squishy or thick as a full-on crash pad but it is less stiff/dense than a typical tumbling mat. It offers plenty of cushion to make this anxious mama feel comfortable about her practicing her back hip circles, but it's still just sturdy enough that she can land. It looks like it will hold up well, and is easy to wipe clean if need be. Gymnastics equipment is SO expensive and I looked at every possible option (including second-hand) and this hands-down was the best value. We also have two 4x6 tumbling mats (2" thick) from We Sell Mats, and they're great too! Just not as much cushioning as I'd have liked for under a bar.

Very substantial crash mat. I use for lyra hoop and aerial silk hammock. Absorbs force well and is still stable enough for dismounting. It’s also light enough I can easily carry it

I'm using this for aerial arts (silks & hammock) and it's great! Ideally for silks something larger would be better, but my rig is only 11 feet at it's tallest, so I feel pretty secure with this under me. It has the perfect amount of cushioning you would expect for a crash mat. I've yet to take a hard fall on it, but I did land on my butt once from around 5 feet and hardly felt it. It's soft yet firm.I was pretty nervous about buying this as another review mentioned a fishy odor. A have an incredibly sensitive nose & I'm happy to report mine has no such odor. The only smell I noticed was a light plastic type smell, but even that was not too bothersome, and was gone in a few days.

We use this under our jungle gym and climbing rope. Durable, good firm cushioning. The kids love it.

This mat is exactly what I was looking for to use in my kiddo’s playroom. I am deducting one star because the mat has some sort of chemical odor from the padding inside that smells like fish. I had to let the mat air out in our garage for several days and press and jump on it to get the odor out. It’s mostly gone, but still has a faint odor like fish when our kiddo jumps on it a lot.

I think the 4-inch landing pad is great. I use it as an added cush on top of the 8 Inch crash pad if I am wanting a little softer landing than the 8-inch pad provides. Not too soft but not too stiff. It has a solid build the only thing I would like to see is handles on the ends of the mat when they are open and not just on the sides. It would make it easier for the coach when adjusting mat positions.

This is perfect and exactly what I was looking for! This is intended to be an aerial crash for my portable rig. It is very large, and perfectly thick. Excellent for 15ft protection, and I can fold it over for 20ft protection. Very excited to use. Feels just like my gym’s crash pads, and for a decent price too.

I got this mat to use with my backyard 20-ft home aerial rig for aerial silks and sling. It is the perfect size, not too unwieldy or heavy, so that I can carry it in and out myself every day. Great for those who don't have help and have to move it around like that. I use it folded, for 8 inch thickness, which works well.
