Because we know every facility is unique, you build your backstroke flag line setup exactly as you need it.

If using a logo there is an additional set up charge per color and the print fee is per location per color. Call us at 800-811-1931 and we can help with a written quote for exactly what you need. We make it easy to get a quote and order.
Mounting is easy using nylon braided cord. To assemble your length of backstroke flags you will need enough cord to cross your pool and connect to the sides, 1 flag for every 12" of cord is recommended and 2 zinc plated swivel hooks (1 for each end) are needed to connect to your pool side hook ups.
Upgrade your lines: Get more tension on your lines with the alternative set up of using our take up reel with vinyl coated cable. If using this method you will need enough steel cable to reach both sides, a take up reel on one side and a wrench to tighten it- the other size will need the steel spring and cable lock.
All components sold separately. Must be assembled by the customer. Ships factory direct.
Large Flag Size: 12" W X 18" L
