Was this helpful?Do these pads soak up any liquid from either side? Trying to find a closed cell pad so that nothing speaks into the pad.
Our Home Wrestling Mats are made out of Crosslink Polyethylene Foam bonded to a tough 24 oz. vinyl top. Since the foam is a closed-cell foam it will not soak up any liquids on any of the sides.
Was this helpful?Is this a good mat to practice back flips on?
Our Home Wrestling Mats work great for tumbling and flipping moves. We also recommend our Folding Mats(https://www.flooringinc.com/gym-mat/folding-mats.html) and Crash Mats(https://www.flooringinc.com/gymnastics-mats/skill-pillow-crash-mat.html) which have thicker foam padding to provide even more cushioning.
Was this helpful?It says it can float in water. Will mat get waterlogged or ruined? Will water get into the vinyl casing?
Our Home Wrestling Mats will not get waterlogged if placed in water, and water will not get in the vinyl casing. The vinyl on the surface of the mats is a one-piece vinyl sheet made specifically for wrestling. So there would be nowhere for the water to get in between the vinyl.
Was this helpful?I enjoy jumping rope but live in an apartment building with neighbors living below me. Can this mat muffle the sounds of jumping?
Our wrestling mats will absolutely help you with sound during exercise. The foam-backed vinyl mats are great at dampening sound that radiates through flooring.
Was this helpful?Will work out equipment damage the mat? I have a Bowflex lateral X, a freestanding pull-up bar, and contemplating adding a bench, and fight camp bag.
Home Wrestling mats are a great addition to any exercise room and can be used with heavy equipment on top of it. Because the mat is made of foam it will indent slightly from the weight of the equipment. For stability it is suggested that the legs of the workout equipment be placed on sliders to help distribute the weight.

Home Wrestling Mats have a Class D fire rating with a Flame Spread Index of 365 and a Smoke Developed Index of 300.
Was this helpful?Can this mat be left outside? Will it stand up to rain?
Our Home Wrestling Mats can be used outdoors and can withstand the elements. Since these mats have a vinyl top, leaving them outdoors will not affect them in any way.
Was this helpful?Can I use it as a cushion for an overground pool (framed pool)?
You can use our Home Wrestling Mats as padding under an overground pool. These mats are non-porous and will not harbor any mold or mildew.
Was this helpful?Can you install on a cement garage floor where the temperature could be about 30 degrees sometimes?
You can install our Home Wrestling Mats over any hard flat surface such as concrete, plywood, asphalt, and the like.
Was this helpful?I have a min-gym I've set up in my living room, but I have neighbors downstairs. Will this mat help reduce the amount of sound that passes through when I do burpees or mountain jumpers and such? I intend to have a jig-saw 1" mat under this one, and there's carpeting and a hardwood floor under that. Please let me know. Thanks!
Adding our Home Wrestling Mats to your current set up will help to substantially reduce the amount of sound transmission to your neighbors below you. Our Home Wrestling Mats are very impact resistant and will transfer the noise from impact throughout the mat.
Was this helpful?I have three boys wrestling, and we have limited space in our living room 7' by 11' would these mats work well for wrestling training?
Our Home Wrestling Mats are great as practice wrestling mats. These mats are very easy to clean and maintain and are just as easy to roll out and roll up.

There is no time limit to how long these rolls can be rolled or unrolled.
Was this helpful?I want to cover a cement garage floor within a side area which happens to have an octagon shaped wall where the mats will need to flush-up against. This being the case, I will have to make several cuts/slices to the mats. Are these OK to slice? I do not desire to go with tiled mats because my son wants the nearly extra one inch of cushion these mats provide versus the one inch cushioned tile.
You can cut our Home Wrestling Mats with a sharp utility knife and straight edge. You may have to make a couple passes to cut through the mat.
