Hi everyone,

YASD (Yet Another System to Dance) has developped and started the selling of bars for DDR and ITG home play. A few important points:

-they are adaptable on ALL solid dance mats (TX, cobalt flux, blueshark etc..)
-They are easily transportable as they can be dismantled
-They are made of very resistant steel (they resist a weight of 150kgs)
-They are available in different sizes so no matter how tall you are
-They are very stable thanks to the form of the tubes
-Several versions have been released, and many others are to come

just have a look: http://www.yasd.fr/-Boutique-en-ligne-.html?lang=en

if you need further information, please contact me: [email protected]

It's about time someone started selling custom made bars, though I think at close to $300 usd's they'll be out of most people's price range.

In the meantime, i recently came across this aluminum/steel railing system for people looking for a step up from PVC... I didnt work it all out but it looks like the prices would come out to about $100 per bar:

I just visited the site and they do look great! You wouldn't be "stuck" with something huge in the middle of the room if you don't have a dedicated space for a pad and bar.

However, I just did a EU to US dollar on yahoo ... it'd cost us $283.58 plus shipping - which from Europe, depending on where, can be hideously expensive.

I looked at a 23lb dance pad from a company in Europe - it would have cost close to $300 US to ship because the cost of shipping has gone sky high (gas prices I think mostly).

But it is a great idea. Maybe you could get a US partner or distributor? Might make it cheaper and more readily available to people in the US.

the cost is ridiculous, good idea, but not practical

Waaaay out of my price range, but they look great. Knock them down a couple hundred dollars and you might have some hits from us! riiight.gif

You can make a pretty sturdy bar out of 2x4's if you're low on cash. Costs about $5 and it'll be quite a bit sturdier than most PVC bars. I think I have some pictures of a few I made in my photobucket album sitting behind some Cobalt Fluxes.
