G-Max Testing

G-max testing measures the shock attenuation performance of a sports surface. Why is it important to conduct frequent testing on sports fields? The obvious answer is to reduce the possibility of impact injuries to athletes. However, the amount of surface absorption also has an impact on an athlete's performance... too hard and injuries can occur... too soft and a team's performance can be affected. Annual testing benefits both athletes and facility operators/owners. "Test reports can potentially help protect field owners from lawsuits in the case of injury" and may also "ascertain if any remedial action is required to be carried out on the field and therefore drastically reduce the risk of injury to users and players." Wood Bay's fds series of dethatchers have proven to be exceptional for decompacting artificial turf - an important factor in helping to reduce the risk of heavy impact injuries among all levels of football players and other sports fields users. An investment in our machines also provides you the opportunity to perfectly dethatch natural grass fields.
