What I just don’t get is, if it’s smaller, why does it cost just as much as the regular mat when it takes less material to make it?

[@jameslenney]

They’ll probably be testing willingness for their customers. Doubtless the price will come down a little.

[@jonathandsouza5604]

Decent affordable mats are available on Amazon. Just putting it out there

[@MrTagoe-xw8yg]

I've had a look but they don't seem like they can take a beating. You got a recommendation?

[@jeffreyeloriaga8434]

@@MrTagoe-xw8ygI’ve been using the $50 Feeco mat for a couple years. I eventually tore thru the outer layer after the first year, but the rubber underneath is going strong.

[@HEAVYONTHEGAINS]

I'm definitely getting one

[@jameslenney]

I have used the same heavy yoga mat for years. It’s much grippier than the dedicated jump rope ones but it’s far cheaper and it works great.

[@josepholiveri299]

dude i think the cutting matt is the way to do..i hear your ..i know you are an honest guy..i can read between the lines when you talk😊

[@davehunt540]

Dan - thanks for the review! 1. appreciate the cameo ... I'll be thinking about growing out my hair now haha 2. That's a bummer the mat was moving around like that. Actually, when the team and myself had tested, we did it side by side with the current mat and the movement was very negligible. I think with smoother surfaces it might slide a bit more, but if it's on something like asphalt it should stay in place super well. Let me know if you notice the same thing 3. True that on the rope durability - the crazy thing is that most cable-based ropes wear through after like 2-3 uses on outdoor surfaces, so ours actually hold up a long time, but not nearly as long as on the mat 4. I cut mats myself during the prototyping phase so that definitely is an option for those that already have one and want to size it down haha!

[@ItsCrimsonwolf]

@@davehunt540 yo Dave, it would be sick if you can make the price of the portable one cheaper than the regular mat since it’s smaller and is less material!

[@davehunt540]

@@ItsCrimsonwolf We definitely are always looking for deals and promo opportunities. As for the size, the surface area and material is actually pretty close and the materials aren't the sole driver of our cost (e.g. the travel mat has a strap whereas the legacy mat doesn't). If you end up getting one, lmk what you think! If not, totally get it. - Dave

Can you make a vid on the difference of yoga mat to crossrope mat.

[@rachelgarcia6669]

I tried to jump on my yoga mat when I was starting out. It was so frustrating because my rope kept picking up the mat. I do not recommend. YMMV

[@reneregtien8288]

What are the thicknesses are of each of the mats please?

[@josepholiveri299]

str😊aight up and honest like always😊😊

Do you recommend using a mat when jumping on regular basketball type floors (inside a leisure center) or just when jumping on rough surfaces? I feel like all my mess ups are harder on the rope rather than not using a mat. Love Crossrope products. I happen to be thinking of getting the travel mat but in Canada it costs $190 smacking dollars! Thanks for the review.

[@JumpRopeDudes]

Yes, even macadam and basketball courts have a tendency to tear through your ropes. Plus, it's better for your joints

[@Jamie_London]

Great review, Dan! This isn’t something I need as I have my CR mat and it’s still rockin just fine even after these last few years of constant use, plus I don’t travel enough to need this (I just use my ropeless sets when I do), but I can definitely see tons of people getting a lot of use out of it. Will you be reviewing the CR spin jump soon? Definitely interested in it but I’ve only been able to find one or two short reviews on it, so definitely interested in your thoughts.

[@JumpRopeDudes]

Thanks for the feedback. Yup, I've got a review on the SpinJumper coming soon, it's a lot of fun 🤘

[@Lake-like-water]

Do you have any recommendations for cheaper mats? Kind of like how you reviewed Walmart ropes? Might be a good video idea

[@smkumar6623]

How much it will cost

[@joshuabryant9198]

I travel for work. My wife and I lug around two jump rope mats, bunch of dumbbells, and a rowing machine. The bigger mat is about the smallest thing I lug around. Lol

[@JumpRopeDudes]

Haha dedication! respect 👊🏼

[@joshuabryant9198]

@JumpRopeDudes I do prefer jumping to the rower but rain/snow, sketchy area, or just sometimes not a good spot to jump makes me glad for the Ole concept2.

[@joshuabryant9198]

@@JumpRopeDudes also, I find the mats to be well worth the 120 price tag. I've had mine for a few years now. I use it for jumping, strength training, and stretching. It's lasted good. I have put a hole in the middle of mine where the rope has hit about a million times....but that took a awhile.

[@boxerjp8276]

I love my mat but it is pretty big.
