We'll be at the (2009) Games again this year with some Hopper Decks for sale. Look for us at our booth. We'll also be introducing a new product this year:

The Benchmarks is a log book for tracking your progress on the CrossFit Benchmark WODs. It's organized by WOD for easy reference, and the back cover works like a little portable whiteboard. We'll have them at the Games and they'll be available online starting 10 July 2009. You'll be able to find out more at thebenchmarkbook.com soon.

Cheers, The Hopper Deck Team

We got our most recent shipment of Hopper Decks in over the weekend and are mostly caught up with the back orders. If you haven't gotten an email with a tracking number, you will soon. Thank you all for your patience!

We've got a tracking number and can see the next batch of decks wending their way across the country. We anticipate that we can start shipping again next week. To that end, we've reopened the store so that you can once again place orders. Thank you all for your patience! Cheers, The Hopper Deck Team

Wow. Your response has been very gratifying! Thank you all very much for your enthusiasm for The Hopper Deck! As a result, we are temporarily sold out. We expect to get more in in the next week or so. Once we have a firm idea of what day they'll arrive, we'll post here and open the store up again to take back-orders. If you need a Hopper Deck **now**. Rogue Fitness still has some.

This is the new (and permanent) home for our blog! All updates will be here for the foreseeable future. The new place will allow for comments so you can talk back. And now that the decks are filtering out into the world, we’d love to see some photos of them in far-flung parts of the world! You can send them to WishYouWereHere [at] thehopperdeck [dot] com. Cheers, Alex

The lost decks are lost no more!

Good News: DHL turned up our boxes! Sadly, at the wrong end of the country, but hey, details! We’ll be resuming shipping on 16 July. Thank you all for your patience and your many kind emails!

Cheers, The Hopper Deck Team

The long and short of it is that 4/5ths of our first shipment of decks evaporated while in transit to us. Thanks DHL! The carton that did get through went to the wrong end of the country and had to be rerouted. All of which has lead to a really frustrating delay in getting them out to you. For this we are deeply sorry.

Now the good news: We are shipping out the decks we have received and we are having another run of decks produced. We will receive the second run on 23 July. We will immediately resume shipping decks to you.

We are really gratified to see the level of enthusiasm you’ve had for our work. Frankly it’s been a little scary to see the orders pile up. The learning curve we’ve experienced has been steep and we are working hard to apply the lessons learned. We hope you’ll stick with us for another week. But if you would prefer a refund please contact us at refund [at] thehopperdeck [dot] com and we will process it immediately.

You will be able to keep up with our progress here on our our blog. It was fantastic to meet so many of you at the Games. We hope the blog will be a way to continue those conversations and meet some of you that have placed online orders. Thank you again for your support!

Cheers, The Hopper Deck Team
