    One important thing I forgot to mention in the video is that I got this price for 20m2 of panels due to an Italian supplier's error. They thought I was ordering 200m2 of panels, but when they saw their mistake, they didn't want to change the price. So it will probably be more expensive per square meter when ordering just a few panels. It's best to get quotes from your local suppliers and compare them to the rebounded sponge option to see which one works best for you.

    I’m looking to do something like this on top of rubber horse stall mats. I don’t need it for throws or MMA but something softer when doing sit ups, push-ups on the floor, etc. My area is mainly for boxing only

    Great video keep it up coach! I do have a question for you. I am opening up my jiu Jitsu school and wanted to use the vinyl cover. However, my concern is the vinyl mat would get too slippery when it gets sweaty in the gym and on the mats. I noticed you mentioned the vinyl covering is mainly used in Serbia. Is there any opinion on sweat and slipping on the mats when used for Muay Thai? Thank you!

    • @MMACoach79
      @MMACoach79  2 года назад +1

      Yes, it can get very slippery in the summer if people start sweating profusely and puddles start forming on the mat. But having a good ventilation system and/or air-conditioning will counteract that to a to a large degree or totally.
      My vinyl cover has a slightly rougher side and a smoother side. I made a mistake placing the smoother side, but it's still all right as I coach privates in my gym. I've seen rougher vinyls than mine in other gyms in Belgrade, so I suggest you go and inspect the samples and see which one is best for you. You might find a rougher one than mine.
