Fisher Athletic BOOMER Big Boomer Football Blocking Sled
Description
The Fisher Athletic Big Boomer Sled is the gold standard in football blocking sled training, built for programs that demand elite performance and long-term durability. Its signature fulcrum pivoting action conditions players to develop leveraged power over an opponent without losing balance - a key skill that translates directly to the field. Available in 2-man through 7-man configurations with either Attack Pad or Man Pad options, the Big Boomer scales to fit any program's size and training goals.
Every component of the Big Boomer is engineered for maximum toughness. The steel chassis, double-welded "pig" blocking units, and high-density foam pads wrapped in 18 oz vinyl are built to endure seasons of daily use in all weather conditions. A fully adjustable design allows coaches to fine-tune spring tension, pad height, and pad angle - making this the only sled on the market that adapts completely to your training needs.
Key Features
Fulcrum Pivoting Action: Realistic pivot mechanics train players to drive through contact with proper leverage and balance.
Fully Adjustable: Independently adjust spring tension, pad height, and pad angle on each blocking unit to match player level and drill type.
High-Density Foam Pads: Each pad core is built from 100 lb. impact-resistant foam for consistent, realistic resistance rep after rep.
18 oz Vinyl Covers: Double and triple-stitched vinyl covers resist harsh weather and heavy use for years of reliable performance.
Double-Welded Steel "Pig" Units: Each blocking unit is constructed from 1/4" high-strength steel plate, double-welded for maximum structural integrity.
Powder-Coated Frame: All metal surfaces are powder coated to prevent rust and stand up to outdoor use.
Expandable Design: Individual modular components allow stations to be added over time as your program grows - no need to replace the whole sled.
5-Year Main Frame Warranty: The tough, durable main frame is backed by a full 5-year warranty for long-term peace of mind.
Multiple Configurations: Available in 2-man through 7-man models with Attack Pad or Man Pad options to suit offensive and defensive linemen training.
Model Options & Which to Choose
2-Man (354 lbs): Ideal for smaller programs, youth teams, or coaches who want a compact, maneuverable sled for position-specific drills with two players at a time.
3-Man (554 lbs): A versatile mid-size option well-suited for high school programs running group drills without committing to a larger footprint.
4-Man (754 lbs): Balances station count with manageability - great for high school varsity or small college programs running line drills with four players simultaneously.
5-Man (954 lbs): A popular choice for high school and college programs - five stations allow a full offensive line to rep together in a single drive.
6-Man (1154 lbs): Built for larger college and university programs that need high-volume reps and want extra capacity for competitive depth groups.
7-Man (1354 lbs): The largest configuration available - designed for elite college and professional programs demanding maximum throughput and full-unit blocking drills.
Attack Pad: Designed to simulate the upper body of a defender, the Attack Pad is ideal for offensive linemen working on hand placement, punch technique, and drive blocking mechanics.

FAQ
What is the difference between the Attack Pad and the Man Pad?
The Attack Pad is shaped to simulate the upper body of a defender and is designed for offensive linemen working on punch technique, hand placement, and drive blocking. The Man Pad presents a larger, full-body blocking surface that is better suited for fundamental drive blocking drills and players building initial contact and extension mechanics. Both pad types are built with the same 100 lb. high-density foam core and 18 oz vinyl cover.
Can I add more stations to my sled later?
Yes - the Big Boomer Sled is specifically designed to be expandable. Individual blocking unit components (the "pig" assemblies and pads) can be added to the chassis as your program grows, so you are not locked into the station count you start with. This makes it a smart long-term investment for programs that may have budget constraints early on.
How is the Big Boomer Sled shipped?
Due to its size and weight, the Big Boomer Sled ships via freight on a pallet. Delivery times and costs vary depending on your location and configuration. We recommend contacting us at service@omahasportsandgames.com before purchasing to confirm shipping details and get an accurate freight quote for your program.
What does the 5-year warranty cover?
The 5-year warranty covers the main frame of the sled against defects in materials and workmanship. All metal surfaces are powder coated to prevent rust and extend the life of the frame. For specific warranty claim questions, please contact us and we will work with Fisher Athletic on your behalf.
Is the Big Boomer Sled suitable for high school programs?
Absolutely. The Big Boomer Sled is a popular choice at the high school level, with the 4-man and 5-man models being especially common for varsity programs. The fully adjustable spring tension and pad settings allow coaches to dial in appropriate resistance for players of varying size and strength, making it effective for freshmen through senior linemen alike.
