Foxtell 2Pack Elastic Crossbars 13ft — Foldable Padded High-Jump Practice Bars, Portable Training Aid

These two elastic crossbars combine stretchable latex tubing with hollow pearl foam sleeves to create a soft, visible, and transportable alternative to rigid practice bars. Built to be trimmed to length, slipped together quickly, and packed flat, the set helps athletes rehearse clearance technique, timing, and approach without the breakage or bruising risk of a hard bar. The bright black-and-white foam sleeves improve sightlines for jumpers while cushioning accidental contacts.

How does this crossbar replace a rigid bar in practice?

The Foxtell elastic crossbar mimics the horizontal reference of a traditional bar while bending away on contact, lowering impact forces and equipment damage. It gives coaches a realistic height marker for approach and takeoff drills, but it won’t hold the same structural stiffness as competition hardware.

• Two 13 ft latex tubes form full-length crossbars that simulate bar placement.
• Hollow pearl foam sleeves create a visible, padded surface along the tube.
• Flexible design yields on contact, reducing athlete and equipment risk.
• Quick assembly allows rapid height changes for repeated reps.

What materials are used and how durable are they?

Each crossbar uses 1 mm high-elastic latex tubing for stretch and resilience, combined with pearl foam sleeves that slide over the tube for padding and contrast. The materials are chosen for repeated bending, portability, and resistance to common training wear, though heavy abrasion or sharp objects will shorten lifespan.

• 1 mm high-elastic latex tubing provides strong, flexible core strength.
• Pearl foam sleeves (3 cm outer diameter, 1 cm inner) cushion impacts and increase visibility.
• Foam and latex combination is lightweight and resists normal outdoor/indoor use.
• Replaceable tubes and removable sleeves simplify upkeep and repairs.

How easy is it to set up, adjust, and transport?

Setup is fast: slip the foam sleeves over the latex tube segments, join the tube ends into a continuous 13 ft band, and secure across uprights or tie-down points. If you need a shorter span, the latex can be trimmed to fit. When training ends, the tubes and sleeves fold or coil flat into a gym bag for compact storage.

• Two 13 ft tubes assemble into two complete crossbars for dual-riser practice.
• Foxtell tubes can be cut to custom lengths to suit different facilities.
• Lightweight parts store flat and are easy to carry to outdoor fields.
• Fast disassembly enables quick transitions between drills and events.

Is this safe for beginners and technical drills?

Yes — the foldable elastic design reduces hard impacts that can occur with wooden or metal bars, making it a suitable training tool for learning takeoff placement, timing, and body position. It’s intended as a practice aid, not a certified competition bar, so use it for drills, approach work, and introductory sessions.

• Elastic bend minimizes injury risk from accidental contact.
• Padded pearl foam sleeves protect skin and clothing on grazing hits.
• Two-bar set supports repeated approach and rhythm exercises.
• Works well for high jump, pole vault basics, gymnastics, acrobatics, and long jump drills.

Who is this for: Coaches, clubs, and athletes seeking a lightweight, inexpensive training alternative to rigid crossbars will find the Foxtell Elastic Krossband Crossbar useful. It’s ideal for youth programs, school teams, weekend coaches, and solo athletes needing a portable height reference for repetitive technical practice without the damage risk of a standard competition bar. Because the latex can be shortened and the foam sleeves are replaceable, this set fits a wide range of training environments and experience levels.
