  • Perfect training surface 
  • Sticky rubber back means it needs minimal tape to hold down 
  • Fully marked and regulation length 
  • Easy to store and quick to roll out 
  • One person can easily carry two as they are lightweight 

Users feel that these make a huge difference to anyone looking to take their training to the next level. They are non conductive so hits will still register and the pistes are therefore designed for training rather than competition. Use of a non conductive top surface allows us to bring a piste to market at a price that clubs can actually afford.

The reality is that there is no need for an expensive conductive piste in training and using one is just a waste as they have a limited lifespan. The griptonite piste gives a consistent grip level which is invaluable especially in venues with less than perfect flooring. Because they are the worlds first piste with a rubber rather than plastic back they stick well to the floor. Most users find they only need about 50 cm of tape at each end and on a clean floor you may not need any tape. The surface is very hard wearing and is marked to the FIE regulations. The narrow width means you can get more fencers into the same space and really is not an issue in training.

Reviews

"The new half-width practice pistes are proving a hit with coaches and fencers. They like the way the pistes grip the floor and don't slip or crease. They also like the surface texture. Having proper markings for the en-guarde and rear boundary lines better helps our fencers to judge distance and their positioning on the piste. They are not finding any issues with the narrower pistes. Being lighter, the new style pistes are much easier to lay and roll-up. We are using them for our high performance squad training and one of our leading clubs is also using them. We plan to use them during our upcoming schools fencing season - a big advance on wooden floors for our promising young fencers."

"I have nothing negative to say about the nonconductive pistes- they've been just great, and perfect for our needs. I ordered one piste for my club, and another one some months after that. I had been looking for something like them for over a year before I finally found those. They are absolutely wonderful and have benefitted our club immensely. We fence on a dusty gym floor and no amount of cleaning seems to improve the traction at all, and we couldn't couldn't install anything permanently in the gym. All of the other options I was looking at were either too heavy (we store our equipment a floor up from where we fence and no one wants to carry 400 pounds up and down a set of stairs), or too expensive. 
 
But these pretty much solved all of our problems. The set up and take down takes about 2 minutes and it stays in place with 4 small pieces of duct tape on the corners. They're light enough that one person can carry both of them up the stairs, and it's such an improvement over the gym floor. Within a week of getting the first one our footwork had improved immensely. They are seriously the best thing ever.
 
We fence on both strips pretty heavily 7 hours a week, and the only wear I've noticed is that the black stripes have faded somewhat on the older one, and there's some loose threads on the edges. There's been no noticeable wear on either the rubber bottom side or the grey cloth surface. I am so glad I got these and we'll probably be ordering another one sometime this season."
