PuttOut’s AirBreak: The Ultimate Consumer Putting Mat

mm

Published

on

A putting mat is maybe the one training aid we can all have in our homes. Regardless of size and space constraints, I can guarantee there’s a spot somewhere in your kitchen or living room that you can roll out a 5 to 7 foot piece of turf and roll the rock.

But that’s the problem: every putting green is the same. Yea, maybe some are longer or wider than others, but they’re all the same. Or, more accurately, were the same.

PuttOut is a leader in putting training aids, with products like the Pressure Putt Trainer (the one that started it all), Devil Ball and Pro Putting Gates. But the dilemma with these, and virtually all putting products, is that you were limited to a flat ground, training speed control and maybe working on your stroke path and club face control. And that’s great, but how often do we play on a flat surface on the course?

The AirBreak is, therefore, something we desperately needed: a practice putting green that can add break and slope, without costing $10,000+ (that said, make sure to check out PuttView if you’ve got Daddy Warbucks money).

In brief, the AirBreak is an 8 foot long putting surface with up to eight points of adjustment that allow you to make a variety of sloped and sweeping putts you’ll face on the course, including the classic right-to-left and left-to-right, knee-knocker double breakers and even uphill, downhill, and hump putts.

All of this is made possible with the combination of the collapsible putting platform and eight pumps that allow you to add up to 7.5% percent of side slope and up to 3% continuous uphill or downhill slope.

The AirBreak is currently available for Pre-Order at $299 until May 5th, with an expected retail price of $349. While that’s certainly a little more than the more vanilla putting mat you might have, there’s no doubting that the AirBreak offers so much more. And with the Pre-Order, this might also be the Father’s Day Gift that steals the show.

Ever since golf became a competitive outlet, nothing brings Eric more joy than a well struck 4 iron. And despite living in NYC, Eric makes it a priority to work on his game and fitness during the week, along with a round or two over the weekend. Fortunately, he’s got a very understanding fiancé who (for the time being) accepts him and his obsession. Follow Eric on IG @hozel_rocket.
