I think it depends what stuff you are doing. If you are doing a Brass Monkey up a 20 ft pole then the thin mat won't stop you hurting yourself. But if you are doing other stuff then the thinner mat is still much safer than doing stuff with no mat at all. I just put a thread up about a fall I had - the top half of my body landed ON a pole o mat - winded but fine. The bottom half of my back landed off the mat (very odd accident!), and it really hurt. If I would have had no mat at all I suspect I would have caused serious injury as my neck and upper body landed first.

If you can afford the bigger mat, why not go for that, but otherwise I would get the other rather than none at all.

my ceiling is only low and when i invert for what ever move my head aint far from the ground ,im only a newbie so im not doing anything brilliant or to fancy ....but i do worry about hitting my head .i cant afford the thicker one at the mo so maybe the thinner for now and the thicker when im doing more impressive stuff ..like u say one is better than nothing but then would the thinner one be a waste of money in the long run hhhmmmm xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

If you got it and felt you needed a thicker mat, you could get another thin one in the future and stack them.
