Cannons UK 8ft Folding Gymnastics Beam with Carry Handles
Create a space for supervised balance practice with the Cannons UK Folding Gymnastics Beam. The 8ft length and 10cm-wide training surface provide a defined line for practising controlled steps, balance holds and movements appropriate to the gymnast's ability.
Full-length anti-slip underside
An anti-slip base runs along the full underside of the beam, providing continuous contact with a suitable floor rather than relying on small individual feet. This helps reduce movement during practice. Place the beam on a flat, level, stable surface, keep the underside and floor clean and dry, and check for sliding before use.
Wooden core and faux suede cover
The solid wooden core has a curved profile and a faux suede cover for a familiar beam-training feel. Stainless steel fittings complete the folding construction. Choose from Rainbow, Cosmic, Pink, Blue or Purple.
Fold and carry between sessions
The beam folds to 4ft long for storage, with carry handles for moving it between your practice space and storage area. An adult should fold and unfold it, keeping fingers clear of the hinge and checking that it is fully open and correctly positioned before use.
Choose suitable exercises
The recommended maximum user weight is 60kg. Choose exercises appropriate to the gymnast, beam and available space, with guidance from a qualified coach where needed. Allow clear space around the beam and use suitable protective matting for the planned activities.
Adult supervision is required for children throughout use. Check the cover, wooden core, hinge, fittings, handles and underside before every session. Stop using the beam if any part is damaged.
Indoor storage
Keep the beam dry and store indoors away from moisture and direct heat. Clean the faux suede gently and allow it to dry completely before folding.

What is the recommended maximum user weight?
The recommended maximum user weight is 60kg. Suitability also depends on the gymnast's ability, planned exercises and available space. Being within the limit does not make every gymnastics skill suitable.
How long and wide is the beam?
The beam is listed as 8ft long with a 10cm-wide training surface. Allow additional clear space around it for the gymnast's movements and suitable matting.
What is different about the anti-slip base?
The anti-slip underside runs along the full bottom of the beam, providing continuous floor contact rather than small individual feet. It helps reduce movement on a suitable surface. Keep it clean and dry and check for sliding before each session.
What is it made from?
It has a solid wooden core with a curved profile, a faux suede cover and stainless steel fittings.
Does it fold for storage?
Yes. It folds to 4ft long for storage and has carry handles. An adult should operate the folding mechanism, keep fingers clear of the hinge and check the beam is fully open and correctly positioned before use.
Does it require assembly?
It arrives assembled. Unfold it and check its condition and positioning before use.
Is it suitable for beginners?
It can provide a defined surface for supervised beginner balance practice. Choose steps, holds and progressions appropriate to the gymnast's ability, with guidance from a qualified coach where needed. Children require adult supervision.
Which colours are available?
Choose Rainbow, Cosmic, Pink, Blue or Purple from the product options.
What surface and matting should I use?
Use a flat, level, stable surface with the underside fully supported. Keep the floor and base clean and dry. Allow clear space around the beam and choose protective matting appropriate to the planned activities. Anti-slip material does not guarantee grip on every surface.
Can it be used outdoors?
Indoor use is preferred to protect the wooden core and faux suede. If used outdoors temporarily, choose dry conditions and a clean, flat, stable surface. Bring it indoors afterwards and do not leave or store it outdoors.
How should I clean and maintain it?
Use a soft brush or dry cloth to remove loose dust from the faux suede. For small marks, use a slightly damp cloth without soaking, then allow it to dry fully. Inspect the cover, hinge, fittings, handles and underside before use. Store indoors in a dry place.
What if it arrives damaged?
Stop using it and contact Cannons UK with your order details and photographs so we can help. For unwanted-item returns, see our returns policy.
What delivery service is available?
Free UK mainland delivery is available on orders over £99.99, subject to postcode exclusions. Orders below this threshold may incur a delivery charge shown at checkout. Order in-stock items before 1pm Monday to Thursday, or 12pm on Friday, for next working day delivery to eligible mainland addresses. This service is not guaranteed and excludes weekends and bank holidays. For Northern Ireland, offshore islands or international delivery, contact sales@cannonsuk.com or call 01379 687768 before ordering.
Check before every session
Inspect the cover, wooden core, hinge, fittings, carry handles and anti-slip underside for wear or damage. Ensure the beam is fully open, correctly positioned and does not slide before use. Stop using it if any component is damaged.
Cleaning
Remove loose dust from the faux suede with a soft brush or dry cloth. Spot-clean gently with a slightly damp cloth and allow to dry completely. Do not soak the cover or wooden core. Keep the underside clean and dry. Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive cleaners and steam cleaning.
Folding and storage
An adult should fold and unfold the beam, keeping fingers clear of the hinge. Use the carry handles to move it rather than dragging it. Store indoors in a dry place away from moisture and direct heat. Do not leave or store outdoors.
