Rebounder question
Hi, can I ask you which rebounder you have, and what do you love about it?
Does anyone have a rebounder that can be folded into two like this? https://www.amazon.com/FIT-BOUNCE-PR...ct_top?ie=UTF8 Is it safe? |

I've got a Bellicon, but if I had it to do over again, would probably have gotten a larger one. Mine's the travel size, and it's fine, but some part of me wishes I'd gotten the largest, LOL!!! I do like the fact that the one I have will fit in my car, but I've yet to take it anywhere. Getting it home from the Fedex place could have been a hassle if I'd bought a larger one, but if they'd delivered it to my door that might not have occurred to me.
Years and years ago I had a Yogflex, one of those ultra cheapo kind with straps? $50 with free delivery from drugstore.com. It was fine as a proof of concept beginnerish test. I learned that I enjoy bouncing, but eventually I realized that in the long run I wanted something much better quality. In its favor, it had a LARGE bouncing surface, which I really liked. There are tons of bungee cord style rebounders these days, so I'd definitely go with one of those, but I'm not sure I'd go ultra cheap. Some reviews I've seen make me doubt the wisdom of buying a no-name brand. And just in case you haven't tried, it, a tag search using the word rebounder brings up a lot of older discussions. http://forum.videofitness.com/tags.php?tag=rebounder

I have the 49" Bellicon with screw-on legs, and a smaller Jumpsport. I actually prefer the Jumpsport to the Bellicon. Even though I have extra strong cords on the Bellicon, I find the bounce too soft and sluggish. I rarely use the Bellicon anymore.

I don't touch the ground when I jump on my Bellicon but the bounce still feels too soft for me. When I do some rebounder workouts on the Bellicon, I find that my jump doesn't keep up with the beat/music. Feels like I'm always couple of beats behind and not so on my Jumpsport. Knowing how they compare, I would've been happy with the Jumpsport. I believe my Jumpsport is the 350 and it didn't cost me nearly as much as the Bellicon. That's just my opionion. Good luck with whatever you decide!

I have 44” Bellicon with screw on legs. I bought it used several years ago, got a great deal on it. I love it! The bungees are still good so far.
