Flying bowling lane system
The Flying Bowling Lane System is a carefully designed device designed to provide bowling enthusiasts with a safe and challenging entertainment environment. The system mainly includes four core parts: the I-beam, bottom scaleboard, gutter cover, and fairway board.
I-beam wood
I-beam wood is the foundation of the entire lane system. Each board is in the shape of an "I", hence the name. They are usually made of hard wood to ensure adequate structural strength and stability. The main function of the I-beam is to fix the fairway board and prevent it from shaking or shifting when hit by the ball.
In addition, I-beam wood also has a certain degree of aesthetics and can be coordinated with fairway boards, gutter covers, and other parts to enhance the overall beauty of the entire lane.


Bottom scaleboard
The bottom scaleboard is also the foundation of the entire lane system and is generally made of high-strength, wear-resistant, and anti-slip wood. It not only carries the weight of the fairway board and ditch cover but also effectively prevents the fairway from being deformed or damaged during use.

Gutter cover
The gutter cover is a protective device for the landing point of a bowling ball after it is thrown. It is generally made of lightweight, wear-resistant, impact-resistant material, and high-strength plastic.
The design of the gutter cover is mainly to prevent the ball from bouncing or deviating from its original lane after impact. In addition, the gutter cover should also have a certain degree of durability and be able to withstand frequent impacts without being easily damaged.

Fairway board
The fairway board is the core part of the lane system, directly affecting the bowler's pitching experience and the rolling trajectory of the ball. Fairway boards are generally made of specially treated wood or synthetic materials, which can support fluorescence and are more conducive to night performance operations.
Customers can choose different colors according to their own needs. Its surface is flat and smooth with moderate friction, which not only ensures good stability and speed control of the ball during rolling, but also avoids excessive rebound force when the ball hits. At the same time, fairway boards must also have certain impact resistance and wear resistance to cope with frequent use and ball impact.

As a major feature of the flying bowling lane system, bumpers will provide players with more choices and experiences. Automatic and manual bumpers, located on both sides of the lane, are used to guide the ball as it runs along the correct trajectory.
The automatic bumper adopts advanced pneumatic technology, which can be quickly raised and lowered through simple operations, which will give players a more flexible and convenient entertainment experience. Whether automatic or manual, it will be helpful that the ball will not deviate from the lane during running so that every pitch can knock down bowling pins.

In general, Flying bowling lane system is a set of professional bowling equipment that integrates safety, stability, durability, and aesthetics. Whether for professional players or amateurs, it can provide a high-quality bowling entertainment platform, bringing endless fun and challenges.
With the continuous advancement of technology and the increasing demand for bowling entertainment, it is believed that Flying bowling lane system will continue to be developed and improved in the future, which will bring a better bowling experience to more people.
