Rogers Athletic Varsity Pop-Up Tackle Maker
Description
The Rogers Athletic Varsity Pop-Up Tackle Maker is a self-resetting football tackling station built to push players harder and keep practice moving at full speed. Once a player takes it to the ground, it springs back to the upright position in seconds - no coaches needed to reset it between reps. Designed for varsity-level programs that need to run high volume through their tackling drills without wasted time or downtime.
Built with a durable powder-coated steel frame and a tough 18-ounce vinyl pad cover, this tackle maker is constructed to take punishment day after day. The built-in weight stack bar lets you load up to 100 lbs of plates directly from your weight room, giving you full control over resistance level as your athletes develop. It's the kind of reliable, adjustable equipment that keeps your tackling station productive through every practice of the season.
