AAE's 8" Take-Off Board System is the preferred choice for high schools and colleges, offering maximum take-off grip, easy installation, and exceptional durability. It comes in two models for different methods of synthetic track surface application. The CTB-8 Take-Off Board includes an 8" stainless steel tray designed to hold the 8"-wide take-off board, which is made of an 8" wide x 48" long aluminum core body and a durable, all-white reversible 3/4" Nuron™ Board that won’t split or crack. The understructure is designed to accommodate a contractor-applied 1/2" synthetic track surface. The CTB-8X Take-Off Board features a 1/2" pre-applied synthetic surface on the understructure.
