The TERRE DAVIS product combines unique raw materials with special production techniques. The result is a product which binds together beautifully producing a firm and extremely durable clay court base. This is achieved by simply adding water and subsequent compaction. A rich red fine powder is then added enhancing its aesthetic appeal.

The court does not shrink or swell so it will never crack. Nor will it delaminate or break up under the weight of the player.

PLAYING CHARACTERISTICS

All the features needed in a high quality clay court are found in the TERRE DAVIS court:

Footing:
This surface allows players to maintain balance when moving. Players are able to utilise a controlled slide and change direction comfortably. Movement skills are enhanced automatically.

Bounce:
The ball bounces slower and higher requiring players to learn patience, the ability to hit the ball from shoulder height and above.

Spin:
When the ball is hit with top spin it will lift off the surface, alternatively when hit with slice it will “stick” staying lower but not shoot as it does on other surfaces. Over time a wider range of shots and greater imagination is developed.
