Essential Qualities of a Judo Crash Pad
Unlike other martial arts, Judo focuses primarily on throwing and pinning. That means that athletes sustain repeated falls and impacts, which can lead to injuries like concussions, abrasions, fractures, sprains, and strains.A Judo crash mat measuring at least 1.5 inches thick can help to maximize safety, absorbing the shock of a throw or pin. A two-inch-thick landing mat offers the best shock absorption, and it can also be used to create a safe space to practice wrestling, gymnastics, and other martial arts.
When choosing a crash pad for Judo, look for a pad that’s made with quality, durable materials. These pads are available in many different designs, so consider whether a portable floor is helpful or if a more permanent installation might be best.
