The Tumbl Trak Slanted Ninja Steps are a pair of triangular foam obstacle pieces that reconfigure into six distinct shapes via hook Velcro flaps, available to gymnastics clubs, martial arts studios, school PE programmes, and families building indoor obstacle courses across North America. At 17 inches high with a 33 by 24 inch base, each piece is substantial enough to serve as a real movement challenge - not a toy-grade obstacle - while the firm crosslink foam construction is forgiving enough that athletes can jump to, from, and over them with confidence.

The pair format is deliberate. Two slants provide the starting point. But the Velcro system is designed to scale: add a second pair and you unlock the mega slant, the ninja roll table, and more complex multi-obstacle configurations that would be impossible with a single pair. Every Tumbl Trak gymnasium that takes ninja training seriously owns multiple pairs, and the price point is structured to make that realistic.

What You Can Build with the Tumbl Trak Slanted Ninja Steps

• Angled obstacles - the default slant configuration; each step sits at its natural angle secured to the carpet foam base with hook Velcro on the bottom; athletes jump to, from, and over the slanted surface working on directional movement and landing confidence
• Ninja cubes - connect the two slants face-to-face using the Velcro flaps and the pair forms a stable box approximately 24 inches square; cube configuration is stable on all sides and suitable for climbing, standing, vaulting, and balance work
• Speed bumps - lay the slants with the flat base down and angle facing up to create a lower, wider bump profile for running and agility footwork drills
• Hurdles - position the slants as upright barriers for jumping-over challenges; the 17-inch height is appropriate for a wide age range from preschool through teen athletes
• Mega slant (four steps, two pairs required) - connect two pairs end-to-end in the same direction using Velcro to create a longer, steeper angled surface; ideal for running and vaulting approach progressions
• Ninja roll table (four steps, two pairs required) - arrange two pairs into a flat-topped table configuration using the Velcro connection system; creates a padded elevated surface for ninja rolls, jumping-on drills, and creative movement challenges

Key Features of the Tumbl Trak Slanted Ninja Steps

• Firm Crosslink Foam Core - Each step is built with a dense layer of firm crosslink polyethylene foam that provides the rigidity athletes need for stable landings and the controlled cushioning that absorbs impact safely; crosslink foam holds its shape under repeated commercial use far longer than standard polyurethane foam
• Durable, Easy-Clean Vinyl Covering - The foam core is covered in durable vinyl that is designed to withstand repeated jumping, stepping, and contact contact in a gymnasium or home environment; easy to wipe down between sessions
• Hook Velcro Base for Floor Security - Hook Velcro on the bottom surface of each step attaches to carpet bonded foam surfaces, keeping the steps firmly in position during active use and preventing the units from sliding or tipping under load
• Hook Velcro Flaps for Shape Transformation - Velcro flaps positioned on the sides and top of each step allow the pair to be connected face-to-face as a cube box, end-to-end as a mega slant, or in flat table configuration; the flaps fold away securely when not in use via an additional Velcro securing strip, keeping them out of the way during solo-step configurations
• Cube Box Approximately 24 Inches Square - When the two slants are connected in the cube configuration, the resulting box is approximately 24 inches square - a substantial climbing and balance platform suitable for children through adult athletes
• Sold in Pairs (Set of Two) - Each purchase includes two slants; additional pairs connect using the same Velcro system to unlock the full range of four-step configurations including the mega slant and ninja roll table
• Available in Red/Black - The Sensory Supply carries the Tumbl Trak Slanted Ninja Steps in Red/Black colourway
• Designed in the USA - Designed by Tumbl Trak in the USA; the same brand trusted by gymnastics clubs, martial arts studios, and occupational therapy clinics since the late 1980s

Skills and Benefits

• Agility and Directional Movement - Navigating the slanted surface, cube, and hurdle configurations develops dynamic agility - the ability to change direction and adapt movement to unpredictable surface shapes - which transfers directly to gymnastics, martial arts, and general athletic performance
• Motor Planning and Problem-Solving - The ability to reconfigure the steps into different obstacle layouts gives children and coaches an active role in designing their own challenges, engaging the motor planning system (brain-to-body movement sequencing) and creative problem-solving simultaneously
• Proprioceptive and Gross Motor Development - Jumping to, from, and over the varied obstacle shapes delivers graded proprioceptive input through the feet and lower body, building body awareness, strength, and coordinated movement control across a wide age range
• Balance and Postural Control - Standing, stepping, and balancing on the slanted and cube surfaces challenges postural control and balance in a progressively graded way, making these steps genuinely useful for occupational therapy and inclusive PE as well as competitive athletic training

Note: The Slanted Ninja Steps must be secured to carpet bonded foam surfaces via the hook Velcro base for safe use. Indoor use only. Always use under supervision.
