Personally, my favourite are the shortest, thinnest, and cheapest as those transfer most directly to the performance in competition.

Doug Davis – 35 years of Tumbl Trak
One of the true good guys in acrobatic sports is Doug Davis.
He first saw a Quebec coach tumbling kids on a modified trampoline. From that day, Doug founded and popularized the tumbling trampoline. One of the very best pieces of equipment in your Gym.
Tumbl Trak:
Starting with the Original Tumbl Trak, our company has invented numerous products that combine technological advances with innovations in training. As a customer once said, “Tumbl Trak has changed the way the country teaches gymnastics.”
How many wrists, ankles, and knees have been saved by training on soft surfaces like the Tumbl Trak and Air Floor? How many elite athletes have gone on to international competition healthier and stronger because they’ve used our products?
On our 35th anniversary, we’re proud to celebrate Doug Davis and how he revolutionized the sport, helping countless athletes train smarter and safer.
Running Arms | Product Video
YES we know there have been Olympians who run with arms straight. Sprinters are pained to watch them. 😀
They’d have been even better vaulters with superior sprint technique.
I like this product.

I do love ‘cheese’ mats. Inclines and declines.
And a BIG cheese mat has many, many uses.

CHN competes tumbling trampoline
For me the most useful piece of equipment in any Gym is the tumbling trampoline.
High reps. Less stress. Fewer overuse injuries. Good form and technique.
Very helpful for everyone.
The Men’s Artistic Gymnastics blog linked to videos of young Chinese Artistic gymnasts competing on tumbling trampoline.

It was Tumbl Trak founder Doug Davis who first popularized tumbling trampolines.
In fact, Doug saw a homemade version being used by a coach from Quebec. And asked if he could start making them himself. #history

Mats made in the USA
I recall Tumbl Trak founder Doug Davis being disappointed as manufacturing moved to China.
After all, he built the original Tumbl Traks in the States.
Good news in 2021.
Tumbl Trak™ is again selling folding mats (panel mats) made in the USA.
