Surface & ground texture
Concrete hard court
Dense, smooth and very firm
- Footing
- Solid grip when dry; can be slick when wet
- Bounce
- Fast, true and lively bounce
- Wet weather
- Sheds water quickly where the slab is sloped to drain
The most durable outdoor surface and the least prone to cracking, but the hardest underfoot — cushioned court shoes help on longer sessions. A broomed or lightly coated finish adds grip.
