New Pits...Kind of

Unread postby distancejumper » Fri Apr 22, 2005 9:35 pm

We just got these new used pits from another school nearby. our old ones were too small. The best part about the "new" pits are that they were free!!

Please find out for me would you please? I'm only about an hour and a half from you and I'll come down and pick them up if you'll sell them to me. That of course if the price is right. Later....Mike

My coach still isn't sure. we might still be using part of it for the other box so we don't have to do anything to change them around. I'll get back to you later.[/img]

Becca turned me onto the one on e-bay and I made a bid on it. Kansas City is only 8 hours away. I've already told the Mrs. that we are probably going on a road trip in a week or so for which she is cool with that. On the other hand distancejumper, if you guys don't use all of the pieces I'd still be interested in talking to you about the "leftovers". The ones on e-bay are just 3 high jump pads 20" thick but they're 8' X 64" (plenty thick for what I'll be doing with them). So if I get them I'll still need some more stuff to make the pit "cool". I don't think I should have what I had in my yard in high school, about two rows high of tires 10 tires by10 tires and a 10 X 10 mesh bag with 50 pounds of foam pieces in it. Worked pretty good for me back then though. Later everybody................Mike
P.S. Hey Dave, looks like I might have to sell that blower now doesn't it? Not until I'm jumping onto something in the back yard though.
