The AntiWave Inflatable Backstop is a professional-grade pool barrier designed to shield starting blocks, deck fittings, and other poolside equipment from errant shots during water polo training and competition. Stretching a full 20 meters in length, this backstop delivers comprehensive coverage across an entire end of the pool.

It sets up quickly with the included 240V air pump and stores compactly in its included carrying bag when not in use.

FAQ

What is the purpose of a water polo backstop?

A water polo backstop is placed at the ends of the pool to protect deck equipment - such as starting blocks, timing systems, and fittings - from impact by water polo balls during training and competition. It acts as a barrier between the active play area and poolside infrastructure, reducing the risk of damage and improving safety.

Does this backstop work with a standard 25m or 50m pool?

The AntiWave Inflatable Backstop inflates to 20 meters in length, making it well-suited for standard water polo pools and short-course competition pools. If your facility has a 25m or 50m pool, the backstop will cover the width of the water polo playing area at each end. We recommend contacting us to confirm fit for your specific facility dimensions.

Are banners or advertising graphics included?

No, banners and advertising graphics are not included. The backstop features built-in velcro attachment points so you can easily affix your own custom banners, sponsor displays, or competition branding. You'll need to source or print compatible banners separately.

What voltage is the included air pump?

The included air pump operates at 240V. Please ensure your facility has compatible power outlets available. If you are in a location that uses 110/120V standard outlets, you may need a voltage converter or a separate compatible pump.

How long does it take to inflate and deflate the backstop?

With the included 240V electric air pump, inflation is quick and straightforward - typically taking just a few minutes for a product of this size. Deflation is equally fast, and the backstop packs down into the included carrying bag for compact storage between uses.

Is this item eligible for return?

Because this is a large commercial water polo equipment item, we recommend reaching out to us directly at service@omahasportsandgames.com before purchasing if you have any questions about fit, compatibility, or return eligibility. Our team is happy to help make sure this is the right product for your facility.
