Guest guest Posted May 8, 2001 Report Share Posted May 8, 2001 I found the best prices for mats were from people that sell Horse stall mats. They are made by the same manufacturers but are much cheaper. I got 5 x 7 3/4 " thick mats for $54 each. Someone also told me that mats sold for restaurants are also inexpensive.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2001 Report Share Posted May 9, 2001 I also used horse stall mats when I made our Olympic platforms. The local feed store had them for about $40. It took one mat for each platform, and so far, they are holding up fine. In regards to Jesup Gym Equipment, I have ordered bumper plates and a couple of bars from them and the service was excellent. They had the stuff to me in about 2 weeks. Ayars Sandhills Academy of Gymnastics P.O. Box 3789 Pinehurst NC28374 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 9, 2001 Report Share Posted May 9, 2001 You can also get these mats at tack stores, which are stores where they sell stuff for horses ... and their owners. They are used in horse stalls. It's kind of cool to see the horse supplements as well. They mirror the ones we have for humans. I have seen creatine, glucosamine chondroitin, protein powders and flax oil for horses.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2001 Report Share Posted May 9, 2001 I sell mats. The Jesup pricing and the horse stall mat pricing are way cheap. Restaurant bar mats are 3 to 4 times those prices.
