Trainer Series
Trainer 1
Trainer 1 is designed as a value-driven wooden flooring system that is easy to install. This system’s 3/8” Trainer Pad provides shock absorption for the comfort and safety of the athlete. It is intended for facilities seeking moderate performance levels.
Trainer 2 
This basketball floor adds a layer of 15/32” plywood on top of treated sleepers. This layer promotes strength and dimensional stability within the system. For increased stability, Trainer 2 can be secured to the subfloor in a system called Fixed Trainer.
Trainer 3
Trainer 3 accommodates high levels of athletic traffic. With two layers of 15/32” plywood the system has been designed as the most durable and stable of the Trainer basketball flooring systems. All of the Trainer Series systems utilize the 3/8” Trainer Pad which provides shock absorption for the comfort and safety of the athlete.
Performance Series
Performance
The Performance system incorporates plywood and a 3/4” CoreCushion Pad that gives a high level of shock absorption. This system is engineered as a competitive sports surface and is suitable for all levels of competition.
Performance Anchor
Performance Anchor provides for the same characteristics as our Performance system, with the added benefit of a fully anchored subfloor. This system is ideal for facilities larger than 12,000 square feet. Performance Anchor is also available in Performance Anchor LP (Low Profile) for circumstances where the height of a court is a concern.
Performance Anchor Channel 
The Performance Anchor Channel System is a patented fixed system with resilient channel inserts (made with recycled rubber) and no floating components. It offers a “solid” feel without compromising shock absorption. It also fairs well under rolling and static loads while at the same time creating more consistent gameplay and reducing “dead spots” related to slab profile. 4’ x 8’ panels provide a faster and more uniform installation compared to field constructed systems. This system is also available with a steel reinforcement called Performance Anchor Continuous Steel Channel, offering the same benefits with enhanced dimensional stability.
Flexlock Panel 
The Flexlock Panel system features a patented criss-cross subfloor design which minimizes the floor’s reaction to changes in moisture. This is accomplished by maximizing the airflow beneath the system. With Tarkett Sports’ foam underlay, the system provides the athlete with appropriate levels of shock absorption.
