Ask Al Fong.
He’ll tell you the best product ever developed by Tumbl Trak (after the Tumbl Trak) was the Porta Table.
I bought the last one before it was discontinued in 2006.
It’s back. But better, lighter and cheaper. ($764.15 right now)
It’s a vault trainer. And it’s a mini-tramp.
Let me tell you it took years of prototypes to get this right. At one stage Tumbl Trak took it to Scott Morgan‘s gym to see if one of the strongest tumblers and vaulters in the world could bottom it out. He couldn’t. 🙂

The top surface is made with our Xtreme bed material and measures the same as a vault table, (3’ x 4’). …
The removable Suede Cover (sold separately), attaches by Velcro to the top, making it look and feel more like a traditional vault top. …
There are not yet many in existence. But Tumbl Trak is taking preorders.
I’ll be touring with one at most of my events this summer.
Some of the top competitors in the sport reflect on why they do what they do. And where it will be 5yrs from now.
