RedClay Pro®: “hard” porous base, covered in traditional crushed topping! All imported.
HARBOR SPRINGS, Mich. (PRWEB)

RedClay Pro® courts – “Engineered from Germany” – are now available from several major court installers across the U.S., including Fast-Dry Courts and 10-S Tennis Supply, of Florida.
“Fast-Dry Courts is excited to partner with RCUSA in the Florida and Caribbean market to bring a new and proven pervious red clay product to our clients and prospects,” says Todd Dettor, Vice President, Fast-Dry Courts, and 10-S Tennis Supply.
“RedClay Pro® is the 21st century “hard” court for America – – it just happens to be made of real clay. It’s a ‘hard’ court designed to slide on,“ states Brian Osterberg, CEO, RedClay USA, “and we’re pleased to be working now with Fast-Dry and a growing list of very reputable installing companies.”
Star-Trac of Michigan President Rick Daughtery says, “The RC Pro courts are the perfect solution to the old problem of knowing clay is better and healthier to learn and play on, but until now not available or affordable to all tennis players.”
Carter Construction of Texas and Zaino Tennis of California are other installers now working with RedClay USA for indoor or outdoor versions of the virtually maintenance-free proprietary RedClay Pro courts.
Built with a paved rigid layer of crushed scrap clay, bound in a cured binder – it’s a smooth porous surface, needing no compaction like traditional clay. The paved base layer is ‘hard’, yet so porous it can’t get saturated/soft or even puddle water on the surface. It’s always ready for play immediately after rain. It provides a perfectly flat sliding base when covered with regular clay topping- – the same used on every court in Europe.
No compaction is EVER needed, and no continuous upkeep or manual labor. Practically indestructible, you can drive a truck on it, and need only keep moist during play. Indoors – NO water is ever used, as a “treated” topping keeps “moist”. Play pickleball on it too.
“RC Pro answers Rafa Nadal’s recent call for experts to develop improved surfaces that don’t destroy your joints,” says Osterberg. RCPro is ITF Speed Rated 1 for slow clay surface and is the official court of the WTA’s Porsche Grand Prix tournament. RC Pro replaces asphalt or concrete hardcourts as the affordable clay surface for beginners to pros.
Palmetto Tennis Center of Sumter, SC has broken ground on its eight new RC Pro courts at their 24 court facility and expect completion by next spring.
