Lifetime Fitness chose Laykold Masters Gel plus a customized application of Masters Color to transform their basketball facilities into pickleball courts. Watch the transformation in action:
“The health cost for pickleball in 2022 was $500 million, and sadly that’s because a lot of pickleball in the US is played on substandard courts, which is basically painted asphalt and concrete. The Laykold Masters systems, and Gel in particular, are a much better choice, and not just for older players. The force reduction technology reduces wear and tear on joints promoting healthier play for everyone.”
