1965 (May 20) Foam Landing Pits & Other Ideas

Even though the first patent for a foam filled landing pit to be used by pole vaulters was filed by someone else in August of this year (1965) - - Who knows, perhaps George Nissen really was the first to suggest the concept?

Now some 50 years later, foam landing pits are 'de rigueur' in gymnastic and trampoline gyms around the world! 


"Nissen's - - It's a great place to work!"
