A further layer of plywood is laid cross d;rectionally to the bottom sheet and power nailed together with special fasteneG. x 4mm) are attached The plywood surface is then level sanded and the mosaic parqueby ;nstalled. MECHANICAL OPERATION of the 'AlR-THR{IST" The consbuction Pneumatic Spods Hall Flooring provides ib own method of forced sub floor ventilation, which is created when any dynamic activity takes place on the floor surface. This activity causes momentary compression of the air beneath the system, which then exhausts to the full perimeter. t he unique return of the system is provided by the natu.al movement of air encapsulated within the fully formed cells of the uniquely blended rubber "AlR. THRUST 'Air Cell pads. This movement resulb in the natural resilience one experiences also SPORT SOITABILITY The "AIR.THROST" system is installed in numerous complexes where the folloilng spore are played at international competition and training levels. Tennis Table Tennis Volleyball Weightlifting Wrestling Badminton Basketball Boxing Calisthenics Fencing Ballroom Dancing Indoor Soccer Indoor Hockey Judo Cymnastics Handicapped Sports Netball Our oroanisation has received manv comme-ndations directed at the perlormance and quality of the "AIR.THRUST" system, which include a number fiom visiting overseas teams and the executives of the various spoding bodies. In the inshnce of Handicapped Spotu, we would point out that unlike conventional flooring systems there is no possibilitv of the 'AlR. THRUST system developing "uam hacks . which can tap the wheels of the competitors chahs, thus exposing the athlete to possible Inlury. PRACTICAL ADVICE To the 'layman', all this technical information must be of little significance and we would suggest you 'try before you buy'. Visit any of the numerous centres throughout Australia and experience "AIR.THRUST" for youmelf, or speak with fellow players, Stadium Managers from centres with "AIR.THRUST" floors and the executive of the va.ious spofring bodies.
