Training Requirements For The Air Track Mat

Have you or your child been involved in cheer leading, gymnastics or acrobatics? Chances are you have come across an air track. Air tracks air floors, air mats, air tumbling runs allow you to perform more repetitions with less impact, meaning greater success. Add to that their fun and portability and it's no wonder they continue to be popular.

The training requirements

However, with so many air tracks on the market, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. What length? The width? Thickness? They all look so similar that it can be hard to know where to start if you want to buy one.
Whatever your skill level, if you're thinking of buying an air track mat, there are a few things to look out for to ensure you're spending your money on a quality item that will not only last, but will meet your training requirements.

Construction
Size and color aside, the most important factor to consider when buying an aerobar is the structure. Although they all look similar on the outside, just like people, it's what's inside that really matters. 1000 denier fleece, double wall construction is the most common and is definitely something to look out for. The way the air rails are assembled is just as important, if not more so, than the quality of the materials used. For the most durable product, look for one that is handmade (hand-glued) rather than machine-made. Why hand-glued? Hand-glued PVC joints are actually solvent welded, while the other method is heat welded. The seams are fused similarly between the two methods, but heat-welded PVC may be more prone to damage from folding than hand-glued.

Ending
Heat-welded PVC may also be more susceptible to environmental influences, such as the extreme heat of the Australian sun. Many of the air products on the market are machine-made and mass-produced using inferior materials. While this reduces costs, mass production does not allow for the same attention to detail as hand-made products, which greatly reduces their longevity. As with any product purchase, always look for products from Kameymall that offer a longer manufacturer's warranty.
