-
Planning & documentation Once the initial concept is confirmed, our engineers and architects can provide plans and documentation in accordance with your needs, from 3D models, cost estimations, to detailed construction documentation.
-
Construction Our highly experienced construction crews have been constructing pump tracks and other action sports infrastructure around the world and are available to visit your selected location on a short notice.
-
Construction supervision The construction of a quality and durable pump track does not only require precise planning, but due to the unique and organic shapes that need to be readjusted during the construction, also on-field experience. Our engineers have long-term experience as pump track planners as well as builders, and are available to supervise the works, so you will be able to ensure that your client gets the pump track of the highest quality.
Pump tracks are an innovative sports facility. They consist of asphalted rollers and banked turns, which are meaningfully connected to form a circuit. The track’s diversity enables a fun, yet safe sports experience even on smaller surfaces. The pump track allows the kids to use it with a bicycle or other sports equipment on wheels, but it is also suitable for the training of top athletes, because of high physical intensity due to rapid movements.
A pump track is designed to be ridden completely by riders “pumping” – meaning to create momentum by up and down body movements, instead of pedaling or pushing. This innovative way of movement separates the pump track from other sports facilities or tracks.
A PLACE FOR THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY
The unique design of pump tracks enables use not only of bicycles, but also almost any sporting equipment on wheels, such as scooters, skateboards, roller skates and even wheelchairs. In addition, it is suitable for all skill levels, from beginners to competitors.
A pump track is suitable for all generations from 2 to 70 years of age. It is especially exciting for children between the ages of 5 and 14, because the existing playgrounds and sports infrastructure are mostly not suitable for their physical needs. On the opposite, the pump track enables a rapid acquisition of physical skills on various sports equipment, while offering practically unlimited possibilities for progress. Since pump tracks are suitable for such a wide range of users and the entire family, they are not only considered a sports facility, but rather become a place for gathering of local communities.
SAFE
Safety is our utmost priority during all stages: planning, construction and maintenance. We especially focus on the safety of the youngest users, so our pump tracks are also suitable for the youngest users, starting from year 2. This is proven by a certificate of conformity with European safety standards, and we also obtain a safety assessment from an independent expert for all pump tracks.
Despite the safety, our pump tracks are not less attractive and fun. We are constantly improving safety and are also members of the renowned Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA). Our pump tracks have an asphalt riding surface that is safe to use in almost all weather conditions.
SIMPLE BUT ATTRACTIVE
Our pump tracks are more accessible than comparable sports facilities. Placing such pump tracks is quick and simple and the construction itself is possible in less than 14 days. Asphalt surfaces ensure durability, while maintenance is minimal.
A Pump track is not just a sports facility. Due to their unique and attractive look, a wide range of users and the ability to position it on smaller areas in the immediate vicinity of users, pump tracks revive urban centers and neighborhoods and revitalize unused or degraded areas. One of our recent pumptracks, which we built on a degraded parking lot, was thus ranked on the architectural festival Open Houses as an example of good practice.
WHY CHOOSE EXPERTS?
Planning and constructing asphalt pump tracks is not an exact science, but due to their organic shapes, rather an art that requires experience from the user’s perspective as well as experience in planning and construction. Without these qualifications, pump tracks would either not be usable and safe, or would have a short lifespan due to false construction. After planning and building over 40 asphalt pump track in a variety of countries, our architects, engineers and builders gained valuable experience which will guarantee that your pump track will meet the highest safety and quality standards.
CUSTOM BUILT PUMP TRACKS
We have designed and built over 40 asphalt pump tracks in 8 countries. We at Aliance listen to your desires and needs and, in cooperation with you, find the right solution. We design and build the most suitable pump track based on the target group of users, spatial, financial and other constraints.
A pump track is not only a sports facility, but can be combined with creative sports and urban equipment into a real action park. We offer a comprehensive turn-key solution from planning to implementation and event organization, but you can choose a partial solution and execute individual stages yourself. We also help you with the preparation of tender documents, as it is possible to obtain co-financing for pump tracks in some cases.
