HIGH JUMP AND POLE VAULT LANDING PITS
Glentham pole vaulting and high jump equipment range from Olympic standard sizes through to custom made junior models.
Glentham Landing Pits are made from the finest materials available. The breather fabric is vinyl-coated polyester yarn woven into an open mesh that allows the threads to move when an athlete's spikes hit them. This gives the fabric tremendous resistance to tearing and also permits the air to escape from inside the Base Units for softer landings.
Picture shows Tim Forsyth, Australian Olympian and Bronze high jump medalist in Barcelona, about to land on a Glentham Landing Pit. The sides and base of our pits are made from vinyl-coated polyester material. All pits have a 50mm thick Wear Pad over the entire landing surface for added safety. The pit centres are made of urethane Foam (that is fire retardant) and are Air Cell constructed, to make for greater landing safety.
All Glentham Pole Vault and High Jump Pits conform to I.A.A.F. specifications.
