Another PROBounce Video

This morning I schlept the PROBounce down to the basement so I could record bouncing to an edit of a Jessica Smith Toning Walk using bands.  Unfortunately, youtube blocked the audio just about world wide so will replace the audio then embed it on this post.  It was amazing how much more overhead room I had on the lower PROBounce which leaves me with a dilemma whether to leave it down in the basement or return it to the living room for our son.  As a precaution, I wore my Futuro arch supports and my feet feel fine.  The humidity was very intense this morning so I had to stop and add a sweatband.

(email me if you would like to hear the original edit privately)

It will be ironic if I find I like this audio more!


Also here is the first PROBounce video embedded from DailyMotion

ETA 10/01/2015:   I did the third Bungee Ball MU routine on the PROBounce which was recorded on the 550 and had no trouble keeping in time.   The mat definitely has more give than the 550.  Will have to keep a close eye on my feet to see if my feet are more aggravated by the PROBounce mat.  It is hard to determine since I have had weird foot twinges for years.  I did enjoy doing a full range healthbounce without worrying about hitting my head on the basement ceiling! Those few inches overhead make quite a huge difference for me.  Looks like my son will be losing his living room PROBounce LOL

10/02/2015:  so far so good.  My feet actually whined less today than usual!

PROBounce in Action

This morning I freestyled on my new PROBounce bungee while playing tunes on my mobile phone and recorded the action between water breaks (lots of breaks cuz I drink alot of water LOL).   The audio gets much louder about the 1:30 mark after moving the mobile phone closer to the laptop.

I found the timing of the kind of combination healthbounce and dance that I do was just about the same as it is on the JumpSport550.   The main difference between the two models  is slightly more room on the PROBounce, making me feel a bit more stable.    The only advantage I can see in the more expensive JumpSport are the thicker adjustable bungee cords with a better warranty.  Only time will tell how long the PROBounce cords may last.

music is blocked in Germany and on some devices by youtube


I will continue doing my morning workouts in the basement on the 550 because of the dvd player/tv/stereo sound system/mirror and freestyle to MUsic throughout the day on the PROBounce in the living room.

PROBOUNCE is in the HOUSE

The 48 inch PROBounce bungee with ultra cords arrived!
(the frame actually was 50 inches on my tape measurer)
Putting it together was no picnic.
It was a real workout and sweat producing.

It looks well made except for one cord which I may have damaged sliding it around the frame to get the silver connector where I wanted it but there are 4 extra cords so no harm, no foul.  My husband had to help me connect the last part of the frame and one of the cords.  Otherwise, I did it myself and didn't draw any blood LOL
I alternated 4 cords and 5 cords between the 8 legs.

Once it is together it is light and easy to move.

It is quiet as long as I find the sweet spot on our squeaky floor.
All I hear are the feet hitting the mat.

The bounce is absolutely wonderful.  It is responsive and totally none jarring.  I can really go airborne in our living room with a high ceiling and do not feel at all unstable when landing.   The mat stays flat enough where I have no trouble doing the kickbutt style of running.  Quite honestly,  I can no longer recommend a more expensive smaller Jumpsport Pro unless with time, I find the mat aggravating my bare feet.  Personally, cannot imagine why a Bellicon would be worth double the price (almost triple the pre-order price), especially since the legs are shorter on the PROBounce.
I do not feel anxious when dismounting at all.

That being said, I probably get more of a lymph pump on the JumpSport 550 with its firmer heel landing.  Will keep that one in the basement for now, hoping the PROBounce will keep me moving more throughout the day.  I may set up the laptop to record some action tomorrow morning.

ETA: my son likes the new PROBounce the most so will be leaving it in our living room with a higher ceiling.

The PROBounce mat is 10 inches longer in diameter than my 40 inch JumpSport PRO mat and 5 inches longer than my 44 inch 550 Jumpsport mat.  Plus no petals or skirt in the way.
It is a softer bounce but not a slower bounce.  The mat does not pronate my feet/ankles (no coning) and does not feel unstable like the JS 350/370 mats did before I got a PRO mat.

PROBounce and 550 Embedded Vids

So I got all excited this morning that my new PROBounce 48 inch bungee had been shipped and was expected to be delivered on Tuesday, today being Tuesday.

Unfortunately, it is NEXT Tuesday LOL

Oh well, never know, it could be Monday.

I plan to post about it here so stay tuned if you want to hear how it compares with my 40 inch and 44 inch JumpSports.

Since I have a whole week to wait to try the new bungee, I recorded a third Bouncin Barb BungeeBall routine:
