Introducing The Most Realistic and Advanced Portable Mound Ever Created
PRLog - April 27, 2015 - MESA, Ariz. -- Athalonz announced immediate availability of RFP Mounds, the only portable pitching mound on the market featuring removable trays that hold real pitching mound clay, so players can wear spikes while practicing on the mound. Designed by major league coaches and an orthopedic surgeon, RFP mounds are built to major league specifications to provide a consistent, professional pitching mound surface that minimizes a player’s risk of injury and encourages proper pitching mechanics.
“Other portable mounds have an artificial surface of either plastic or turf. So pitchers cannot wear cleats on them. As such, pitchers do not get a true feel for pitching and, more importantly, pitchers typically have to compensate their pitching mechanics, which increases their risk of arm injury. Our patented mounds are different. They are designed to allow pitchers to wear spikes and to practice their pitching without compensation,” said Tim Markison, CEO at Athalonz.
Positive Customer Impact
Six time state championship and 2007 National championship baseball program, the Horizon High School of Scottsdale, AZ, recently replaced all of their existing bullpen mounds with RFP Mounds. RFP Mounds provides a safer, more consistent pitching surface, and a more cost effective solution than conventional bullpen mounds.
“It’s very unique to be on a mound like this with dirt [using] cleats,” said Eric Kibler, Head Varsity Coach at Horizon. “This is the perfect way, to me, to really teach a pitcher how to pitch.”
RFP Mounds Availability
Built to Major League specifications, RFP Mounds are engineered using patented technology, and made in the USA. They are virtually maintenance free, and assemble in minutes. RFP Mounds are available for purchase at www.rfpmounds.com.
