What are the disadvantages of an Airtrack?
The disadvantage is that some jumps you will only be able to perform on an Airtrack, and if you try them afterwards on a floor or standard gymnastics you will hardly succeed. For some, this may be a little difficult to understand. Another more tangible disadvantage is the price. Airtracks often cost over 1000 kroner, which for many is a bit expensive for an exercise tool for their children. The longer a model you choose, the more it costs. And since you often want as big an Airtrack as possible, it’s a pity that you can’t afford it.

What is the average size of an Airtrack?
A typical Air track is 3-4 meters in length and 10-15cm in height. However, the more serious gymnasts often opt for a slightly larger model of 5-6 metres and 15-20cm thick, as the larger models provide extra bounce and you have the option of combining several jumps in a series.
How high can you jump on an Airtrack?
How high you go on the Airtrack depends on how much speed you have and the thickness of the Airtrack. There is quite a difference in how high you get when jumping on a 10cm one compared to a 20cm one. But it’s not uncommon for a skilled jumper to easily get 40-50% extra height on jumps.
What is the difference between an AirTrack and a normal trampoline?
There will be many jumps that you can train almost identically on an airtrack and a trampoline. However, the way you jump on a trampoline is quite different compared to jumping on a gym floor. On the airtrack, it seems much more natural. You can also put together more jumps in a series better than you can on the trampoline. However, using a trampoline gives you more height and more help with your jumps.
How much does a big Airtrack cost?
A large Airtrack, around 5 metres long and 15cm thick, typically costs between 4 and 5 thousand pounds, so it’s not cheap exercise equipment. But while it might seem a bit expensive, consider what a proper bike costs if you’re into road cycling or mountain biking, for example.
