Inflatable Gymnastics Mat (Air Track): The gym track that transforms your training

The inflatable gymnastics mat, also known as an air track or air tumbling track, has become an essential accessory for amateur gymnasts and professional clubs alike. At Maison Gonflable, we have selected a comprehensive range of high-density PVC inflatable gym mats, designed for both families who want a safe acrobatics corner in the garden and professional organizations (clubs, gyms, schools, event rental companies) looking for commercial quality capable of withstanding intensive use. Whether you are looking for a gym track for your flips, a soft floor mat for yoga, or approved cheerleading equipment, you will find here the model suited to your level, budget, and space. Flexible, bouncy, non-slip, and easy to store, the air track mat absorbs shocks and multiplies the height of your figures while protecting joints and spine.

Why choose an inflatable gymnastics mat from Maison Gonflable?

An inflatable gymnastics mat is nothing like a simple mattress: it is a true tool for progress. Here's what sets our selection apart:

• Robust PVC material: reinforced double-wall (drop-stitch), waterproof heat-sealed seams, abrasion and UV resistance for indoor and outdoor use.
• Controlled rebound: air pressure can be adjusted according to your level (soft for beginners, firm for advanced tumbling and cheerleading).
• Non-slip surface: stable and secure landing, ideal for performing handsprings, flips, round-offs, and somersaults.
• Comes with pump: inflates in minutes thanks to a high-pressure electric pump included with most "with pump" models.
• Easy transport and storage: once deflated, the mat rolls up and fits into a carry bag, perfect for travel to competitions.
• Excellent value for money: from the affordable "cheap" home edition model to the professional commercial quality mat for rental.

All types and variations of inflatable gymnastics mats

Our category covers all uses, sizes, and audiences. Here are the main variations to help you identify the right inflatable gym mat.

The air track: the versatile tumbling track

The air track is the star of inflatable gymnastics. This rectangular gym track (generally 3 to 6 meters, up to XXL versions of 8 to 10 meters for clubs) allows for working on air tumbling: series of flips, backflips, twists, and connected round-offs. Available in several widths (1 m, 1.2 m, 2 m) and thicknesses (10, 15, 20 or 33 cm), it adapts to the skill level. The giant and professional models are popular with gyms and cheerleading camps.

The floor mat and landing track

Shorter and often thicker, the inflatable floor mat serves as a landing and learning area. Perfect for children starting out, for practicing footwork, and for cushioning falls during beam or bar exercises. It is also an excellent mat for birthdays and children's parties, transforming the living room or garden into a mini-gym.

The inflatable beam

The inflatable beam replicates the balance beam without the risk of a hard fall. Ideal for young gymnasts, it combines perfectly with an air track to create a complete circuit at home or in a club.

The inflatable yoga and fitness mat

Wider and with soft pressure, this inflatable floor mat is suitable for yoga, Pilates, stretching, and rehabilitation. Its stable and comfortable surface makes it a versatile ally for home use as well as for wellness studios.

Home edition vs professional version

The home edition range targets individuals: compact sizes, affordable prices, quick inflation. The professional version (or approved, commercial quality) is sized for communities, daily use, and rental: thicker PVC, reinforced valves, XXL dimensions, and increased resistance to repeated assembly/disassembly.

Buyer's guide: how to choose your inflatable gymnastics mat?

For a successful purchase, evaluate these key criteria:

1. Skill level: beginner (10 cm thick, soft pressure), confirmed, or cheerleading/tumbling (15-20 cm thick, firm rebound).
2. Length: 3 m for home initiation, 4-5 m for combining several figures, 6 m and more (giant, XXL) for clubs and competition.
3. Width: 1 m for linear tumbling, 1.2 to 2 m for comfort and working with multiple people.
4. Thickness: the higher it is, the greater the cushioning and rebound (and the more suitable the mat is for high figures).
5. Usage: indoor, outdoor, or both? Check for UV treatment for garden use.
6. Audience: an individual will prioritize value for money and ease of storage; a professional will aim for durability and approval.
7. Equipment provided: prefer a model with pump, including an electric pump, carry bag, and repair kit.

Safety and standards: practice with peace of mind

Safety is at the heart of our selection of inflatable gymnastics mats. Inflatable structures intended for children and the public meet the requirements of the European standard EN 14960, a reference for inflatable play equipment (seam strength, stability, material quality). Some essential best practices:

• Adjust the pressure according to the level: a mat that is too soft increases the risk of bad landing, too hard it reduces cushioning.
• Install on a flat, clear surface, away from corners, walls, and hard objects; outdoors, anchor the mat in windy conditions.
• Supervision: the presence of an adult or coach is essential for children and advanced figures.
• One user at a time on a linear track for tumbling, to avoid collisions.
• Maintenance: clean with soapy water, dry before rolling, regularly check valves and seams, and keep the repair kit handy.

For communities and renters, systematically demand an approved commercial quality model, accompanied by its technical documentation and, if necessary, a certificate of conformity. Our teams will guide you on the regulatory constraints of public use.

Occasions and use cases

The inflatable gymnastics mat adapts to a multitude of contexts:

• At home: daily training, progressing between club sessions, fun activity for the whole family.
• Birthdays and children's parties: a mat for birthdays that guarantees hours of safe tumbling.
• Gymnastics and cheerleading clubs: warm-up, learning figures, camps, and competitions.
• Schools and communities: PE classes, leisure centers, extracurricular activities.
• Events and rental: fairs, sports festivals, open days, corporate events.
• Wellness studios: yoga, Pilates, and fitness sessions on a soft floor mat.

To create a complete entertainment package, combine your air track with other inflatable items: a bouncy inflatable trampoline for consecutive jumps, an inflatable obstacle course for agility training, an inflatable climbing game for developing strength and coordination, or a multi-activity inflatable combo play area ideal for communities. Event professionals will complement their equipment with inflatable bouncy castles for rent and the essential blowers, pumps, and inflation accessories.

Frequently asked questions

What size inflatable gymnastics mat should I choose?

For home practice, a 3 to 4 m air track is sufficient to learn tumbling and basic figures. Experienced gymnasts and clubs prefer tracks of 5 to 6 m, or even XXL versions of 8 to 10 m for performing consecutive somersaults in competition. The width (1 to 2 m) depends on the desired comfort and the number of users.

Does the mat come with a pump?

Yes, most of our models with pump include a high-pressure electric pump allowing inflation in a few minutes. You can adjust the firmness according to your level. For professional or rental use, we recommend a dedicated blower, available in our accessories category.

Can the inflatable mat be used outdoors?

Absolutely. Our UV-treated PVC inflatable gym mats can be used both indoors and outdoors. In the garden, install the mat on a flat, clear surface, and make sure to secure it in windy weather. Dry it before storing to preserve the coating.

Which mat for cheerleading and intensive tumbling?

For cheerleading and advanced air tumbling, opt for a thick (15 to 20 cm) track with a firm rebound, of commercial quality. These professional models offer optimal energy return for high figures while ensuring a safe landing.

Is the inflatable mat suitable for communities and rental?

Yes. Our approved professional models are designed for intensive use in communities (schools, leisure centers) and for event rental. They comply with safety requirements (EN 14960 standard for structures intended for children) and benefit from volume prices on quote.

How do I maintain and repair my air track mat?

Clean your inflatable gymnastics mat with soapy water, rinse, and dry completely before rolling it up. Regularly check the valves and seams. In case of a small puncture, the supplied repair kit allows for quick repair. Careful maintenance guarantees several years of use, even for professional use.
