Has anyone used Fisher? they seem to be about like most, fold up and have handles and epic has them for $83. Most look like over $100 and up to $200. Just don't want to buy the cheapest one and be disappointed. Thanks for your help.

I'd say Oak. Sorry.

I've been thinking about going to Thiesen's or Fleet-Farm and getting some heavy rubber mats, the kind they use for stalls or trailer mats. For $100 you can get a 4'x6'x0.75" rubber mat. Cut those into 12" strips, we're all set.

Have had a couple of really good fundraising years and don't mind spending $600 or so if it is worth it and they will last for awhile. Thanks

Did they just deteriorate or not ever work? I ask because we have plenty of money but our HC is religiously opposed to buying usable equipment.

I like a treated 2x12 because it's slicker than snot if they bring their feet together.
Keep it off the ground when not in use, and it will last for years.

We were using strips of rubber flooring mats, like you might find in an old school weightroom. Probably not quite and inch thick.

Cut those into 12" strips, we're all set. We did this when they put a new rubber floor in the weight room. We took the old heavy farm/trailer mats out and cut them into strips. They have been sitting outside in the heat and cold for several years now and are fine still just like when had them inside. Our only problem is when they mow the field they snag an edge sometimes because they are not paying attention.

We like our Fisher ones.
We had rubber Rogers ones before and they broke.

It needs to be more like a stick than a board. That first step has up down like last week. If the step is to big, its a problem.
