A-Game Courts – Quality Sport Court Floors

Meeting DIN standards means finely tuning the details of your hardwood flooring:

• Shock absorption – high levels of absorption allows the amount of impact to the lower body joints to decrease, providing safety for each gymnasium floor user
• Deflection – ensuring the safety of the human body as the floor flexes to support and cushion a particular player.
• Deflective Indentation – when LaMarcus Aldridge makes a jump shot and Brandon Roy is nearby to guard, Roy receives the same cushioned flooring as Aldridge while they move around one another.
• Friction – keep all wood flooring at an optimal slip level by keeping it clean with the appropriate products
• Ball Bounce – the lower this number is, the more life there is to the basketball during play. A-Game courts aims to keep ball bounce levels at 95% or above.

Two different DIN tests:

1. DIN – a test which sums certain test spots to create an average in hopes of meeting criteria
2. DIN 2001 – a test which requires that every test point meet each of the criteria (no use of averages)
