Bosu Adventure
May 6, 2010
This week at the Bosu office was not a typical week for me; I went in on Wednesday, instead of my normal day—Friday, and instead of doing research on the computer, Sterling and I were sent out to do some shopping around at a few local sports stores. We had to bring along with us a couple of the newest Monster Rope’s inventions to try and find the best way to add additional weight to these products for people who are insanely strong and want to work out with a heavier rope. David and Steve also wanted us to document this excursion so we brought David’s mini camera-thingy to record everything. So with ropes and camera in hand, we set out on our little journey. We ended up going to 5 different places in search of the best and most efficient ankle weights we could find. Our first stop was the Sports Chalet on Sports Arena Blvd., which didn’t have much. Next we stopped at Big5 Sporting Goods, and they actually had some weights that worked, but we wanted to check out a couple of other places before we bought anything. We ventured on to Mission Valley and hit up the Sports Chalet there, as well as Sports Authority and Target. Out of all the places, we ended up finding the “winner’s” at the Mission Valley Sports Chalet. So after an afternoon of trying out all the different types of ankle weights out there and getting funny stares from people who had no idea why we had huge ropes around our neck, we headed back to the office with two options that we thought would work the best to show David and see what he thought.
