Professional Slalom Poles for Agility Training and Tactical Field Marking
1 to 11 (from a total of 11)
Technical Features of Professional Slalom Pole Systems
In modern performance training, slalom poles serve more than just course marking; they are essential for developing explosive power and coordinative agility. The technical superiority of high-quality slalom poles is defined by the material used: Modified Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) ensures that the poles do not splinter even under massive mechanical impact.Joint Systems and Surface Specifications
A critical factor for functionality is the pole's base. For use on natural grass, professional models feature galvanized steel ground spikes with a diameter of 8 mm to 10 mm, guaranteeing stable vertical anchoring. For hard courts or artificial turf, slalom poles are used in combination with heavy rubber bases (approx. 1.2 kg to 2.5 kg). High-quality agility poles are also equipped with an integrated spring-loaded joint. This flex system absorbs impact energy during collisions, protecting the athletes' joints and immediately returning the pole to its upright position.| Model Variant | Length (Standard) | Base System | Technical USP |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Slalom Pole | 160 cm - 170 cm | Steel Ground Spike | High shatter resistance, UV-resistant |
| Spring-Loaded Slalom Pole | 150 cm - 170 cm | Flex Joint + Spike | Maximum injury prevention |
| Indoor Slalom Pole | 160 cm | X-Base / Rubber Base | Indoor compatible, floor-friendly |
UV Resistance and Visibility
Since slalom poles are primarily used outdoors, high-quality pigmentation of the plastic is indispensable. Our poles are UV-stabilized, preventing fading from sunlight and the associated material embrittlement. The signal colors (Neon Yellow, Signal Red) ensure optimal visual detection by the athlete, even in difficult lighting conditions or at high speeds.Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
When is a spring-loaded slalom pole necessary?
Slalom poles with a flex joint are advisable whenever drills involve high speeds and close body contact with the pole (e.g., in soccer dribbling or rugby). The joint minimizes the leverage effect during impact, preventing falls and material breakage.
Can grass slalom poles be used on artificial turf?
No, slalom poles with ground spikes damage the base layer of artificial turf. For artificial turf pitches, models with specialized bases (base plates or rubber feet) must be used to ensure the longevity of the surface.
