Backyard Hockey Rinks & Skating Pads
Ultra Base panels make it easier than ever to have your very own backyard hockey rink or practice area. From bases for natural ice, synthetic ice or court tile to standalone rinks for Dek hockey, we provide the base...you supply the action.
Ultra Base for Hockey & Skating
Whether you want to build a backyard hockey rink or need a portable ice rink for an event, Ultra Base can bring your dream to reality. Both our Court and Foundation Panels can be used to create all hickey and skating rinks.
Shown here is a backyard hockey rink featuring our Court panels with painted lines and face-off circles. These panels serve as the base panel and surfacing for the rink while providing the needed drainage.
Hockey rinks and skating surfaces can also be built using Ultra Base Foundation panels and then covering them with IceCourt tile solutions from companies like VersaCourt.

The Ultimate Base for Synthetic Ice
For years we have watched synthetic ice companies rely on wood or concrete platforms. That is a lot of work and once wood is wet, there goes the flatness. Not with UBS panel base technology. Pick a location, grade the ground, install the stabilization fabric and the court foundation panels and you have the perfect synthetic ice base. Indoors or outdoors, cold climates or the tropics, we make ice skating happen. And we love roller skating too!
