I had 1000 6x6x6 blocks for 380, but the site went under so I cant get it anymore. And you would need alot more than that.

Re: Foam Pit......

And the foam usually isnt the price, its the crane to get the bike out.

Re: Foam Pit......

We have the crane worked out! We just need a **** load of foam. I have found 8*8*8 cubes but they are $1.20 a piece and thats way too high. If any one has names of companies or numbers or websites it would be a hell of alot of help.

Re: Foam Pit......

Anyone find a source. I am willing to drop 1-2k on foam cubes after watching Tavis and the Nitro Circus last night.

Re: Foam Pit......

I guess you should use foam that doesn't burn.

Re: Foam Pit......

Call a Gymnastics center. The foam cube idea first came from them, Gymnists have been using foam pits for over 20 years. They'll be able to direct you in the right direction. For your best deal at least a gymnastics supply company will be your best and probably, only bet.
