HIC and Gmax testing in Sheridan, Wyoming

Concussions are a hot topic in today’s sports world, and when it comes to synthetic turf fields, player safety is top priority.

The two field tests recognized in the athletic industry for determining impact resilience are GMAX, and HIC (Head Injury Criterion) testing. Both the gmax and HIC tests measure impact attenuation, or the amount of force a playing surface absorbs upon impact. Higher gmax test values reflect a surface which is absorbing less impact and therefore returning more force to the athlete.
