Rosco SubFloor
was developed and tested by dancers to insure the perfect combination
of resilience (spring or bounce) and stability. It is flexible enough
to absorb the energy from a dancer's impact but provides the right amount
of resistance for dance movements ranging from ballet to tap, including
folk, modern, Flamenco and Irish dancing. Most users will be able to install
the Rosco SubFloor on their own. The 42" x 42" (3.5 ft. x 3.5 ft.) panels
lock into each other with the unique WaveLockŪ design.
Panels weigh
only 44 pounds each. Perimeter pieces, 4 3/8" wide, lock the entire floor
together. The perimeter of Rosco SubFloor systems can be bolted to concrete
or wood floors and can also be removed and re-used in case of a change
in venue. An integral part of the Rosco SubFloor system is the 4.5" diameter
closed cell foam pads. These 1" thick pads are affixed at specific locations
on the underside of each SubFloor panel. This, combined with the Medium
Density Fiberboard (MDF) construction of the panels, utilizing our patented
WaveLockŪ technology, yields superb resilience and dimensional stability.
