Anyone have the 39" Bellicon?

I'm probably going to invest in a Bellicon. I know most folks have the 44" but I'm wondering if anyone has a 39"? I'm considering that one as I plan on moving it to different rooms, and I'm 5'1". It's less $ too. I plan to use it to bounce and jog and possibly some videos. But if it is just too small to do much on, I'd go up to the 44". Any feedback is appreciated.

Unfortunately, the 44" are sold out right now and there is a 3-4 week backorder.

Hi Gale! I have a Bellicon 44". I love it and find it very easy to move around. It moves in and out of my workout room when my yoga students are coming. I went to it from a JumpSport 220, which I believe is a similar size to the Bellicon 39. No comparison! The smaller mat is fine for simple bouncing & jogging, but definitely limits you when it comes to videos with side to side and forward and back movement.

I can echo what yogapam said 100%! I think my jumpsport 350 may be 39', and I upgraded to the 44' bellicon. The smaller size is very restricting.

is that the smallest Bellicon? That's what I have.

I have it, like it, and need to get new cords for mine, but I do admit I wish I had gone for the largest size so I would have more choice in what I do.

On the other hand, if I ever needed to pack up and move, I'm reasonably certain the 39 would fit in my car. Small workout space and portability were my primary needs when I bought mine. That's all still true, but some part of me wishes I had a larger one.

That newer hexagon shape looks like fun!

I have been loving my jump sport from Costco. Think it's 39. I'm going to wear the heck out of it to justify a bigger Bellicon.How fun are those color choices too. I'm fine with the 39 most of the time, but bigger would be better

Yes, I sure would if it was in my budget! I got my 44 gently used for an amazing deal, but I bet that 49 is fabulous!

Thanks everyone. I ended up ordering the 44". I think it will serve my needs well. I just wish it was in stock, as it is backordered 2-3 weeks. Hopefully it will come before then!

probounce

Did you look into the probounce knock off bellicon? There was a thread last year and some people did buy and seemed happy. Something to consider while they are on back order. I think the website is www.probounce.me

Im happy with my bellicon. I got the largest but would have considered the probounce had it been available at the time.
