These are dangerously good.
These are dangerous!!! 😝 I say that with a smiley because these do exactly what they were designed to do. I nearly did a full-split before I caught myself on a nearby door jamb! I wanted a way to do extreme leg stretching and core exercises and these not only work but work well. I strongly suggest that before first use and until you get used to them you keep a grab bar, chair or even a door jamb handy. They are very comfortable and I will disclose that they make a slight "popping noise" when you step on them. When this happened the first time I put my foot on one I thought I had cracked it. This is not the case, it just makes the noise because the bottom (hard) pad is concave to allow better sliding and when you step on it it pops flat with a noise. No worse than the clang of a barbell or the clunk of a kettle bell. Yeah, I know, a kettle bell should clang 😄 Unless you are doing meditative yoga poses with these I doubt you will find the popping distractive. These are made for use on carpet. They work great on our oriental rugs at the house, any tight weave or pad type carpet will work fine. They may work on other surfaces, but I would be concerned about scratching. A blanket on a hard floor would probably work as well as carpet. Again, comfortable and functional, a good value for the price. If you are trying certain core exercises or leg stretches without these I think you will be pleasantly surprised at the extent they bring to your movement. Read more
