I need a new mat and was thinking of buying one when I arrive in Font next week.

Surely they must be available but does anybody know from where and is there a decent selection? Do they do them in the Decathlon?

In reply to jamiemoss:


Decathlon have a website. It's a sh*t website, but still a website.
It gives stock availability for the particular store you have chosen - BE WARNED - It's not always accurate.
Do not rely on it, especially if it says 3 items in stock or less!

If you go here https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=fontainebleau+decathlon you should see a map and links for 3 stores near Fontainbleau.

Click on a particular store and then have a look under sports - escalade - material d'escalade - Magnesies, sacs magnesie

It appears that the logical place to have crashpads is under the chalk section - They should probably rename it escalade sur blocs / faire du bloc or somesuch.

If you chose the Villiers store it is showing 2 pads
http://www.decathlon.fr/crashpad-impact-id_8055448.html 'In stock'
http://www.decathlon.fr/crash-pad-block-id_8359361.html '1 available'


Are you passing an Au Vieux Campeur on your way? Reasonable choice on the website - no idea what they have in each store, though they are often rammed with decent kit compared with decathlon.

There is also this lot (mats made by a local legend).

You can buy your mat at Escape (a shop in Fontainebleau), or in Paris (Le vieux Campeur).
Enjoy your stay in Fontainebleau !

Another option is Blockout in Lisses. http://www.blockout.fr/bo3-evry/nous-trouver
