How Portolite game pitching mounds can help your high school baseball player throw like a pro
Prepare your high school pitcher to put his best foot forward this spring season with Portolite’s 10” Game Pitching Mounds.
These top-quality pitching mounds fully meet high school baseball regulations for a true game experience.
Our one- or two-piece models are the lightest on the market, which makes moving them between games or into the storage shed easy and convenient!
“We like the portability, we like the durability,” says Jon DeGennaro, director of the Lynx Travel Baseball in Klein, Texas. “It’s a true game mound.”
As athletes grow stronger and taller, our 10” Game Mounds provide them plenty of room to push off the pitching rubber.
The mound’s gentle front slope allows your pitcher to gain momentum as his body leans forward. That gives him greater movement as he throws and can help increase velocity as he works on those fast pitches.
This mound is also uniquely designed with gradual slopes on all sides for pickoffs. No more falling off the pitching mound!
Smooth tapered edges mean there are no “lips” on Portolite’s pitching mounds. No more raking dirt around the mound to prevent those lips.
Players and coaches have told us some pitching mounds made of wood or Styrofoam can become squishy over time, making them dangerous for pitchers.
That uneven surface also changes a player’s stance with each pitch — preventing the consistency he gains on a well-built mound.
“Portolite is the brand we decided to go with after testing others,” said DeGennaro. “I try products out until I find ones I like.”
We use the highest quality fiberglass, poly and turf materials – durable and made to last.
Each mound is designed with a full and resilient core with a fiberglass reinforcement for a solid, no bounce, yet cushioned mound to reduce knee and ankle strain. A hidden “wear pad” in the front of the pitching rubber helps your mound last season after season.
The Portolite 10” game mound comes with a 10-year limited warranty on the core of the mound. Turf colors come in popular green, clay, red, or tan.
Invest in a pitching mound that allows your player to throw with confidence each time he takes the hill.
And when the baseball field’s lights go dark, you can pick up that mound for storage or travel until it’s time to play ball again.
Portolite Pitching Mound’s limited warranty says it all. Portolite has set the standard in lightweight, durable and portable pitching mounds since 1992.
