We have just placed an order for a new piece of equipment for Cranleigh for the start of the new term. It is called an AIR TRACK and is a very new device that has become popular in gymnastics for the purpose of 'tumbling'. It is a highly pressurised flat 'bouncy castle type thing' that allows gymnasts to develop moves that would otherwise prove too difficult on our 'normal' mats.
The following clip shows some older gymnasts/trampolinists throwing themselves about on it.


You may want to turn down the sound. Europeans love their Techno!!?
