Track Starting Blocks

The Gill International Starting Block Cart keeps a full complement of starting blocks organized, protected, and ready to roll to the track. It holds up to ten blocks horizontally and includes a dedicated storage shelf for loose pedals and accessories, so nothing gets lost between meets. Steel construction and a durable powder-coat finish stand up to daily program use, and an included handle makes transport effortless.

Key features & specs:

• Holds up to 10 starting blocks horizontally
• Storage shelf for loose pedals and accessories
• Included handle for easy transport
• Steel construction with a durable architectural-gray powder-coat finish
• Keeps blocks organized and protected between sessions

Coach's tip: Load blocks evenly and stow pedals on the shelf so the cart rolls balanced and nothing rattles loose. Keeping every block on one cart also speeds up setup and takedown on meet day. Store it indoors or under cover between meets to protect the powder-coat finish and keep the blocks clean and corrosion-free.

The Gill Moye Pedal Adapter converts any style Gill Fusion starting block from a conventional setup to a Moye pedal configuration in seconds. Simply remove the easy-carry handle from the front of the rail and insert the adapter. Many coaches and sprinters prefer the Moye start position because it allows closer positioning of the front foot to the starting line, and it is also well suited to 3-point and standing starts where competition rules allow.

Key features & specs:

• Converts conventional Gill Fusion blocks to a Moye pedal setup
• Tool-free installation: remove the front handle and insert the adapter
• Enables closer front-foot positioning to the starting line
• Recommended for 3-point and standing starts where allowed
• Patent 4,754,965; compatible only with Gill Fusion Blocks

Coach's tip: Confirm your blocks are Gill Fusion models before ordering, since the adapter fits only that rail. Keep the removed carry handle with the block's storage cart so you can switch configurations quickly at practice.

The Gill Indoor Starting Block is engineered specifically for indoor tracks, where you can't drive pins or nails into the surface. Instead, it uses foot pressure on its flaps to grip the track and provide a solid, non-slip start — giving sprinters a powerful, secure launch without damaging your indoor facility.

Key features & specs:

• Designed for: Indoor track use
• Grip system: No nails, pins, or holes needed to hold the block in place
• Function: Foot pressure on the flaps provides a non-slip start
• Benefit: Secure starts without damaging the indoor surface
• Model: GP-417

Coach's tip: Have athletes settle their weight onto the flaps before the set position so the block bites the surface for a slip-free drive. Keep the flap surfaces clean of dust and grit, which can reduce grip on a polished indoor track, and store the blocks flat to protect the mechanism.

The Gill Essentials Starting Block gives sprint programs a dependable, competition-style block at a value price. Built for high school and developmental athletes, it delivers the solid, adjustable foot platform sprinters need to drive out of the blocks with power — an ideal choice for programs building out their sprint equipment without stretching the budget.

Key features & specs:

• Type: Adjustable sprint starting block
• Design: Angled, adjustable foot pedals for a powerful drive phase
• Build: Durable construction for daily practice and meet use
• Best for: High school and developing sprinters
• Line/Model: Gill Essentials value line; GP-416

Coach's tip: Teach athletes to set their pedal spacing and angles consistently so their start feels the same every race, and secure the block firmly to the track surface before each use. Rinse off grit after outdoor sessions and store blocks dry to keep the pedals and rails moving freely.
