?? The 8,000 lb. Elephant in the Gym: A Satirical Take on Gymnastics Floors
"The future development of gymnastics is a complex and complicated process. Part of it involves new technique for elements and creation of new skills. But human abilities are limited, and therefore, we need new, modern gymnastics apparatus, which would help gymnasts perform new skills and at the same time provide safety.” - Nellie Kim, VP Fédération Internationale de Gymnastique (FIG)
?? Picture this: You walk into a gym, full of vibrant energy and eager anticipation. But amidst the glittering equipment and rhythmic claps, there lurks an enormous, invisible creature - the 8,000 lb. elephant in the gym. And what, pray tell, is this colossal beast? None other than the humble spring floor.
Yes, you read that right. The spring floor, the seemingly innocuous surface where gymnasts leap, tumble, and soar, harbors a dark secret. Under the carpet, behind its glossy facade, lies a tale of neglect, deception, and dare I say, tyranny.
Imagine, if you will, a group of brilliant engineers and researchers, armed with knowledge and wisdom beyond measure. They uncover the truth: the cylindrical floor, revered for generations, is flawed. Its design, reminiscent of a bygone era, fails to meet the safety standards of modern gymnastics.
But alas, their voices are silenced by the iron grip of exclusive supplier agreements. They are but mere whispers in a cacophony of conformity, drowned out by the roar of profit margins and status quo.
Meanwhile, children, both young and old, frolic upon the spring floor, blissfully unaware of the dangers that lurk beneath their feet. Like unwitting pawns in a game of chance, they bounce and tumble, their innocence overshadowed by the specter of potential harm.
It's a scene straight out of a dystopian nightmare - a world where the NFL still uses leather helmets and rotary phones reign supreme. But fear not, dear friends, for all is not lost.
“Nothing is more important than the safety of athletes. As a company, we are committed to advancing the technology of gymnastics equipment to make the sport safer and more enjoyable for all. We are proud to introduce our latest innovation, variable pitch engineering, and are excited to work with industry leaders to prioritize the safety of gymnasts around the world.” Scott Weller, Founder and Inventor, King Bars Sports, LLC.
Together, we can unveil the truth behind the 8,000 lb. elephant in the gym. We can demand accountability, transparency, and, above all, safety for our athletes. It's time to lift the veil of ignorance and usher in a new era of enlightenment.
Join us as we embark on this journey to challenge the status quo, to question the unquestionable, and to ensure that every gymnast steps onto the floor with confidence, knowing that their safety is paramount.
Yours in pursuit of truth and justice,
Scott M. Weller, Founder and Inventor
P.S. No elephants were harmed during the making of the message. Unfortunately, can't say the same about our gymnasts ??.

?? EASIER ON THE ATHLETE? Weller Floor Features Patented Variable Pitch Engineering.
? What is Variable Pitch Engineering? It works by altering the pitch of the springs within the floor, resulting in a frequency response that reduces the stress on the athlete’s body during certain movements, i.e., dorsiflexion.
?? An Analogy: This innovation has been likened to airbags in automobiles, which increase the impact time over which the body is stopped, reducing the force and risk of injury.
