Revolutionizing Gymnastics Safety and Performance Through Innovative Floor "Tuning"

"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

Gymnastics, a sport that demands precision, strength, and agility, is witnessing a transformative shift in equipment design, thanks to innovators like Scott Weller. As the inventor of Weller Floor and pioneer of Variable Pitch Engineering, Weller is revolutionizing the concept of floor "tuning" to enhance athlete safety and performance.

"The future development of gymnastics is a complex and complicated process. Part of it involves new techniques for elements and the 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."


At the heart of Weller Floor's innovation is Variable Pitch Engineering, a technology designed to optimize the interaction between gymnasts and the floor. Unlike traditional spring floors, Weller Floor's unique design adapts to the gymnast's natural frequency, providing a safer and more efficient alternative.


?? 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.

Weller's journey began with a commitment to addressing safety concerns prevalent in conventional gymnastics floors. The data and scientific analysis presented by Weller Floor highlight specific safety issues associated with traditional designs, such as impact injuries, sprains, and strains. The introduction of Variable Pitch Engineering aims to mitigate these risks and elevate safety standards in the gymnastics community.

While the entertainment industry embraced Weller's innovation, the gymnastics world faced challenges in adopting new technologies. Email communications and industry responses indicated resistance to change, prompting Weller to advocate for transparency and a comprehensive approach to safety improvements.

As the inventor of Weller Floor, Scott Weller emphasizes the need for a paradigm shift in gymnastics equipment design. The focus is not only on safety but also on performance enhancement. The tailored approach of Variable Pitch Engineering ensures that the floor becomes a dynamic partner in the athlete's routine, finely tuned to their movements.


Key Findings from Our Research:

  • Superior Shock Absorption: Weller Spring Floor demonstrates a slightly lower dominant frequency (~8 Hz) compared to traditional cylindrical springs and foam blocks (~9 Hz), indicating better shock absorption capabilities.
  • Enhanced Energy Transfer: In terms of impulse, which measures the total force over time, Weller showed lower values. This means Weller provides better energy dissipation, crucial for both performance and injury prevention.
  • Superior Rate of Force Development: Weller Spring Floor produces a higher rate of force development on the downward motion and a lower rate of force development on the upward motion. This translates to safer landings, more power on takeoff, greater control over movements, and more time in the air.


The article underscores Weller's commitment to transparency, safety, and continuous improvement. As gymnastics evolves with athletes pushing boundaries, Weller Floor stands as a testament to the potential of innovative technologies in shaping a safer and more performance-oriented future for the sport.
