Standard padding on the base, uprights, boom, and ballast box is 2” thick foam mounted on 7/16” wafer board, covered with a 14 oz reinforced vinyl laminate, secured by 2” velcro straps. The entire unit is finished with a white powdercoat and carries a Lifetime Superior Warranty, with a playing weight of approximately 2000#.
