ProDeflect products deflect the path of the ball. A variety of materials and designs create a multitude of realistic deformations to change the trajectory, angle, pace and spin of the ball for unparalleled reaction training.

STA-PRO is 8 meters long to cover the entire goal and can be used in two corners at the same time. It is larger and has increased the number of deflection lobes compared to its predecessor.

You won't have to buy it twice! When used as intended, it will last a lifetime!

Basic features

Security
Safety is our first concern and these products were designed with safety in mind. Any object hit towards the goalkeeper is a danger and can be a distraction affecting the development of the technique. With ProDeflect you can train at full speed with confidence and focus 100% on the ball, knowing that it will only be the ball heading towards the goalkeepers.

Unpredictable
With many products of a similar nature, when the ball is aimed at the product the goalkeeper knows the ball will be deflected, there is no question, it is predictable and in some cases over time the goalkeeper can learn what is going to happen . STA PRO pods move when affected, so every time a pod is hit, the setting changes and increases or decreases the density of pods in an area and changes the challenge each time.

Efficiency
Another issue identified with many deflection products was the low level of flexibility in terms of distortion rate and useful distortions. To achieve a deflection that the keeper could deal with, a very precise serve was needed in terms of pace and direction. If the pace was too high, it would often lead to such a deflection that the goalkeeper would watch the ball go past the goal. Similarly, there is a very small target area to achieve a useful deflection and most of the time there is no distortion or a very large distortion. The result is service that is so slow that distortion can easily be predicted. STA PRO doesn't need a precise or specific serve rate to achieve a deflection that the keeper will deal with twice, just kick as you like and something will happen to challenge the keeper.

Psychology
As mentioned earlier, the ability to predict a diversion should be minimal. We want to avoid the keeper being able to predict that the server is targeting gear and know with 100% certainty that a deflection will occur. We want uncertainty, just like in games, yes the chance of deflection increases as the ball travels towards the equipment, but deflection is not certain. The goalkeeper must adjust to the initial hit and react to a deflection if and when it occurs.

Practicality – Storage
STA-PRO is stored in a 30cm x 30cm pouch, making it easy to store and transport from session to session.
