Dropping Mats – when the floor and your neighbors should stay quiet
You love the clang of iron in the morning – your floor and neighbors probably less so. With the Dropping Mats, you can drop the bar after a hard set without worrying about it. The 27 cm thick pads of dimensionally stable specialty foam absorb the impact of every drop. Whether it's snatch, clean & jerk, heavy deadlift or touch-and-go sets – the mats protect floor and equipment from damage and dampen the vibrations that otherwise rumble through the entire Box. The noise level drops noticeably. Your athletes can focus on training, not on annoyed looks from the studio next door. In conversations with Box owners, we consistently recommend the Dropping Mats whenever noise is a problem – they solve exactly that.
Robust, light and ready in seconds
The high-performance nylon surface handles drops of up to 250 kg from 150 cmeters – and does so for years. At just 7 kg per mat, the pads are still light enough to set up and stow away quickly. The side carrying loops make transport easy, the black design fits into any Box. At 60 × 100 cm, each mat offers enough surface to safely catch the plates. Sold in pairs (2 pieces) – so you cushion both left and right of your stance. Whether CrossFit Box, athletic studio or home gym – the Dropping Mats turn any area into a drop zone.
