SPORT TILE SURFACES REDUCE STRESS AND RISK OF INJURY RELATED TO HARD SURFACES

SPORT TILE SURFACES REDUCE STRESS AND RISK OF INJURY RELATED TO HARD SURFACES

In recent years we've come to learn a great deal about the innate causes of sports related injuries. In doing so, the wear and tear to the body caused by constant pounding on less than forgiving courts has been exposed as a major culprit. For the casual or amateur athlete, playing in outdoor parks full of holes, divots, and other hazards garnered over time can increase the risk of injury even more. Flex Court Athletics took the issue to heart, and created a surface for all its outdoor basketball courts, tennis courts, aerobics flooring, and gym flooring committed to stress reduction and injury prevention. It's little wonder that recreation centers, gyms, and schools are fast discovering the inherent advantages of our high performance, low impact courts of play.

Flex Court's backyard courts feature the best of what our forgiving yet high performance surfaces have to offer. Enjoy a great game of hoops on a floor featuring built-in flexion, an ingredient synonymous with stress reduction. The very concept of our modular sports surface was dedicated to the idea of being orthopedically sound, reducing and absorbing impact, and promoting a reduction in lateral and vertical stress. Some studies have shown that stress reduction can be reduced by as much as 60%. In addition, the improved foot traction you'll enjoy is sure to improve your performance and take your game to an entirely different level.

Stress reduction and injury prevention is a theme that continues in every sport court we offer. In fact our tennis courts are considered across the board to be among the healthiest on the market. Each court features a three-quarter inch shock absorbing surface that, in a sport where constant side to side and back and forth running create constant stress on the legs, provides much needed relief. And because the constant pounding takes less of a toll, the surface actively works to reduce fatigue as well. The theme continues on our Gym Court, the ultimate in multi-use court that is among the most resilient surfaces you'll find anywhere.

Low impact and high performance. They are the very reasons for the existence of the sport court, the healthiest and safest surfaces on which to enjoy the sports we love.
