equipment “wish list” - spotting platforms

October 31st, 2006 · No Comments

Jeremy has more photos.

Dennis Swensen manufactures these in Calgary at a good price.

Examples:

2 spotting platforms (Safety) for bars and horizontal bar (these photos from New Zealand)

A radical solution is to use movable air-filled port-a-pits. Hard to believe this works. But it does. Rick used them all the time at a gym camp in California.

After all, you only need a spotting platform a small percentage of the time. When not needed, they can be used for something else.

Two kids can transport these quickly.

Gordon’s Action mats - Large Mega Action Mat, 6′ x 10′4″ x 32″ - USA

These are used in any situation we now use a stack of mats. Air mats compared with foam are about one third the price. (I’ve emailed for a quote shipped to Canada.)

This set-up is PERFECT.
