Self-Revolution, Indoor Jump Rope Air Mat 'Airipang' Launched to Help Prevent Interfloor Noise

Jagi Revolution (CEO Son Min-young) announced the launch of the sports equipment brand ‘JumpUp Air Mat’ and the release of the indoor jump rope air mat ‘AiryPang,’ which is effective in preventing noise between floors.

This product is made with a double-space fabric structure rather than a thin sponge material mat, helping to reduce noise between floors. AiryPang is a compound word of “Airy,” meaning light and breezy, and “Pang,” which describes the sound of jumping, symbolizing the image of freely jumping on the air mat.

Son Min-young, CEO of Jagi Revolution, said that during the COVID-19 period, she wanted to exercise at home but was worried about noise between floors when exercising indoors. Although she decided to do jump rope exercise, she couldn’t jump freely thinking it might disturb the downstairs neighbors.

She looked for a jump rope floor mat but realized that while there are camping air mats and car camping air mats on the market, there are not many home-use sports air mats. After much consideration, the product ‘AiryPang’ was created.

AiryPang features a 10cm thick double-space fabric structure that excels in shock absorption, dispersing impact to reduce concerns about noise between floors. Tens of thousands of polyester fibers firmly hold the upper and lower fabrics together, providing a firm yet soft feeling without impacting the downstairs. Noise measurements showed that impact noise was reduced to as low as 30dB, much lower than the nighttime noise standard for floors, allowing safe exercise without noise worries.

Since children use it, the mat has passed phthalate non-detection tests and received CE certification, verifying the safety of the fabric. The mat’s diameter is a generous 1 meter, eliminating the risk of feet slipping through or injury, and it is fully waterproof, making it easy to maintain cleanliness even when sweating.

The double-space fabric air mat can be used throughout the sports industry. JumpUp Air Mat has already been recognized for its excellent quality by supplying air mats to Taekwondo dojangs and gyms nationwide. The 20cm high Taekwondo air mat allows safe enjoyment of intense sports such as Taekwondo, Hapkido, tumbling, and gymnastics without injury concerns. For home use, the company plans to develop jump rope air mats and home training air mats further and expand the market to water sports with surfing boards, water play pools, and underwater yoga air mats. For climbing, they plan to offer fall air cushions, and for gyms, landing mats and air bounces, among various product lineups.

CEO Son Min-young said, “We had many concerns about prototype development and market validation, but thanks to the support from the sports industry support project, we were able to launch successfully. We want to create a world where anyone can exercise safely and freely without worrying about noise between floors, both at home and outside.”
