Product Overview
The Bownet QB Fade is a portable quarterback practice net built to help players and coaches work on fade, corner, and post routes from any angle. Standing 8 feet tall at the center of the net, its basket adjusts from horizontal to 45 degrees, allowing quarterbacks to simulate throws to different depths and angles on the field.
Constructed with a powder coated steel frame and Bownet's original BOW-poles, the net is engineered to distribute weight across its base to resist tipping in various weather conditions. Non-marking rubber feet protect indoor and outdoor surfaces while providing stability and traction during use. Bownet's E.A.S. (Energy Absorption System) technology helps diffuse impact energy through the netting, extending its lifespan and adding flexibility and balance upon contact.
Weighing 21.5 lbs, the QB Fade net sets up in about 60 seconds with no tools required, making it convenient for quick practice sessions. The set includes the fade netting, ground frame, BOW-poles, and a carrying bag, which allows the net to be collapsed and stored easily between sessions. It ships in a box measuring 52 in. x 12 in. x 6.5 in. and weighing 24 lbs, and is backed by Bownet's one year limited manufacturer warranty.
