Ball Response 

Ball response is one of the performance characteristics governed and measured in the DIN standards, which are the acknowledged metrics for basketball floors.  DIN-certified basketball floors must deliver at least 90% ball response (as compared to a concrete surface) and Sport Court™ surfaces typically range between 93% to 100% ball response values.
