🏅 Coach Cappos Recommends
"For most high schools this is the high jump pit I would buy. The extra depth gives jumpers room to land safely as they get faster off the curve, and it is college legal if your facility ever hosts a bigger meet."

Top Pad Construction
- Edge-to-edge top pad: Covers the full surface so spikes never hit the base units and there is no uneven lip at the edges.
- Tufmesh Plus casing: 17 x 11, 1000 denier mesh that stands up to daily spike traffic.
- 2" Duralife foam: Soft, durable landing surface.
- V-Loop vinyl straps: Spread the landing force evenly so seams are not torn apart over time.
- Reversible: Flip the top pad to extend its life.
- Side carabiner connection: The top pad clips to the base on the sides, so there are no buckles or straps on the landing surface.
Vinyl Base Units
- All vinyl base: Keeps water out of the foam far better than old mesh top bases.
- Interchangeable, reversible sections: Rotate units to spread wear and add years to the pit.
- Quadruple layer Duralife foam: 25% softer than competing pits while keeping the firmness a safe landing needs.
- Dual coated vinyl: 1000 x 1000 denier polyester bonded on both sides with 18 oz knife-coated PVC. Resists delamination.
- Triple stitched: 210 bonded polyester thread built for high volume practice.
- Grip Strip fastening: Keeps the base sections working as one unit season after season.
- Compress-Pack shipping: Ships compressed to cut freight volume and cost, then restores to full size after unpacking.
