Built on a 3-1/2" carbon fiber post with a 3" diameter aluminum inner tube and a thick gloss resin finish, the CarbonMax achieves a post deflection of just 0.98" at 250 lb net tension. Posts weigh 32 lbs (non-winch end) and 37 lbs (winch end) and fit directly into standard 3" floor sockets. The CarbonMax winch carries Bison's Forever Lifetime Warranty. Available in six configurations to match your facility's court count, socket situation, and accessory needs: single court complete, single court without sockets, double court complete, double court without sockets, posts and winch only, and court adder. Color-padded complete configurations ship with a Kevlar Competition Net, VB13 Antennas and Boundary Tapes, Rope Ratchet Side Tape Tensioners, Free Full Color Graphic Post Padding, a Free Net Storage Bag, Free Net Rope Cable Covers, a Free Chain Net Height Gauge, and a Bison Exclusive Top Rope Dome. Available in 18 team colors on padded configurations. Ships by truck. Floor socket installation required: The CarbonMax is a floor-socket competition volleyball system. Installation requires 3" floor sockets set into the gymnasium floor at the correct court positions. The Complete System and Double Court System configurations include 3" Aluminum Floor Inserts. The "Without Sockets", "Posts/Winch Only", and "Court Adder" configurations do not include floor inserts — these are intended for facilities that already have 3" floor sockets in place. If your facility does not have floor sockets, select a Complete or Double Court configuration, or contact our team to discuss installation options before ordering. 3-1/2" Carbon Fiber Post: 0.98" Deflection, Internal Crank Height Adjustment The CarbonMax post is built from a 3-1/2" carbon fiber outer shell with a 3" diameter aluminum inner tube, finished in a thick gloss resin finish. This composite construction produces a competition post with an approx. post deflection of just 0.98" at 250 lb net tension. At 32 lbs (non-winch end) and 37 lbs (winch end), the post fits standard 3" floor sockets with the 3" Aluminum Floor Insert included on socket-equipped configurations. Floor friendly adjustable feet protect the playing surface around the socket area. The CarbonMax is the only carbon fiber volleyball system with a crank style internal net height adjustment. The internal crank allows for easy and accurate net fine tuning without external slider mechanisms. Height adjustment is telescoping with permanently engraved net height indicators for precise, repeatable positioning at junior, official women's, and official men's heights. Forever Lifetime Warranty Winch and Complete Rope System Net tensioning is handled by Bison's winch, which carries the Forever Lifetime Warranty — the top-tier named winch warranty in the Bison lineup. The bottom rope system includes both an adjustable Velcro bottom rope strap and a bottom rope ratchet tensioner. The Bison Exclusive Top Rope Dome is included on all padded complete configurations. Choose Your Configuration The CarbonMax is available in six configurations covering single and double court needs, with or without floor sockets, and with or without the full accessory and padding package. Every configuration uses the same CarbonMax post, winch, and rope system. What changes is the court count, whether floor inserts are included, and whether the Kevlar net, accessories, and full color graphic padding are included.

Select the Double Court or Double Court Without Sockets package if you are outfitting two courts at the same time.
