I purchased this mat for my girls (ages 7 and 9), who do recreational gymnastics. Their coach indicated they needed to do more handstands against a wall to build upperbody strength. It works great for that against a wall in the house, but they also pull it out in the front yard to do handsprings, walkovers, etc. On the grass it does not slip, but needs a rug guard under the mat in the house on hardwoods to stay in place. I have had it 2 months and it seems to be holding up well. Overall, it was a great value.
The mat shipped quickly and was well packaged.

This is a great mat for practicing tumbling skills at home. It is durable and well cushioned. My daughter is a level 3 gymnast and uses this all the time.
Received in about 10 days which was excellent considering I placed the order less than 2 weeks before Christmas.

Granddaughters use the mat to practice cheerleading gymnastics. Construction is great and the velcro at the end of the mat will allow additions as needed. Would always return to AK Athletic Equipment. [...]

This was bought as a Christmas gift from Santa to my granddaughter, age 5. She is in gymnastics and I needed to get something for my home for her to practice safely on. Have not used it yet as Christmas is two days away.

The mat was bought to be placed under a pull up bar for my daughter to practice her gymnastics. She is thrilled to have it! She also uses it for her tumbling exercises. It allows her to work harder at a skill at home and gives me the piece of mind that it is done on a mat instead of my floor or couch cushions.
