Would I be able to cut this down to make shorter?Would it crush if strapped to a backpack?

There's a plastic tube inside the fabric you can pull out so yes you would be able to cut it shorter and no I strap it to my back pack with no problems its pretty solid

doubtful - its slotted at each end - you'd have to cut a curved rectangle as well

Not going to happen unless you cut it. It has a minimum 6' squish. It is made for floor to ceiling use. Didn't know that when I ordered so we ended up cutting ours down.

I think you'd have to put longer strings and they're narrow and wouldn't be too comfy I don't think.Could prob right some back pack straps on it

I think it would provided you used a long ( maybe 8 or 9") blade so it would be able to bend. But I'm just a do-it yourself hack if u get my drift.

I use it as a liner in my SUV. As such, it hasn't seen much abuse. I changed the shape by cutting it with scissors. It cut so easily that I would have concerns that it would not be able to take the constant pounding associated with rope jumping.

Not only is it hollow, but you might find it difficult to restring and keep the collapse function. I would not try cutting it. However it is so reasonable in price you might find that those two extra inches are not that much of a problem, have you tried walking with a 33 before, not that much different.

I havent tried to cut it however with a new/sharp utility knife I do not see it being a problem. The folds are thinner than the actually padded mat so cutting along the fold could be done with some scissors (i would think) - the mat itself is fairly thin. If the equiptment you are placing on it is heavy you could just fold one fold under and it wouldnt matter since its so thin.

Hello. It probably could be cut down if you are willing to resew up the seams. Good luck!

It does not break down but is very flexible and can be bent into an arc that would fit into a rolling suitcase and come out back to it's original shape. I have also seen the shortest blade (3'+) bent and fit into a backpack and carried on planes.

I wouldn't recommend it. If you'd really like to take it backpacking, I'd suggest making a PVC tube with end caps and a strap. Even in it's folded up condition, it's a little bulky for a backpack. PVC is light, cheap, and extremely tough.

Don't think so. Lots of falling, etc makes it a bit dangerous. Btw, mine got a massive rip along the seam. While I like to sew, I'm a bit annoyed as it was pretty expensive. Good luck

No, not without feeling like you are going to break something. I have it fairly snug in my routing but it is about 2 inches.

I think it would become all frayed if you cut it. I folded it back over itself because I did not need the entire length.

Yes, it will probably be short, but needs to be worn with spandex type shorts under it anyway. It is very shear.

I think it would be too large, directions say not to fold it, however it probably could be cut to size.

I wouldnt cut it down. There is a seam that goes all the way around the outer edge to hold the fabric together and probably keep it from fraying.
