The Dragflicker

With the drag flick mat from FIKAGEAR you train the drag flick exactly the way you need it on the pitch. The Dragflicker is a mat of 6 by 2 metres made of water-based artificial turf: the same surface the game is played on at the highest level. As a result, every dragging motion feels familiar, even when you train away from the match pitch.

Why train on a drag flick mat?

You win penalty corners through repetition. Yet a pitch is rarely free when you need it, and on concrete or paving you wreck your stick within weeks. A drag flick mat solves that: you put down a piece of match pitch exactly where you want to train.

• Full motion. Six metres of length leave room for the run-up, the drag and the follow-through.
• Realistic ball behaviour. The ball rolls and accelerates as it does on water-based turf.
• Less wear. Your stick and your balls stay in better shape.
• Usable anywhere. On the pitch, along the sideline, at the club or during a clinic.

Rolled out in seconds, packed away just as fast

Two people roll out The Dragflicker, and the mat still stays stable enough for a full drag flick. After training you simply roll it up again. It then disappears into the equipment store, or into the van on the way to the next session.

Frequently asked questions about the drag flick mat

Why a mat and not simply the pitch?

Pitches are booked, wet or rented out. With your own mat you train when it suits you, next to the pitch or right through the indoor season.

Will my stick wear out faster on the mat?

No more than on a normal hockey pitch. The surface is the same type of turf, so your stick takes no punishment from concrete or paving.

How do I store and transport The Dragflicker?

You roll the mat into a compact roll. It fits in the equipment store and travels easily to an away game or a clinic.
