We are setting up a game sept 18 2005 Golden Gate Park on the POLO Field after the horse polo game. There might be about 2000 people. It
cost $100 per person but you get a catered lunch champagne and a gift basket. All the money goes to a handicaped program in SF. If you cant play Segway of Oakland will have enough players for a game but we could use 5 more people.Call steve steinberg for info 510 414-8429

The US Polo Association is getting approval for use of Segways on Bermuda Grass so that we can play on any polo field. I'll see what the status is.

If you want, we can take pictures before and after our match this Sunday, and then again on Monday afternoon to show that the grass that gets matted down (similar to lawnmower wheel tracks) springs back the next day.

The stock HT tires don't seem to tear up grass significantly if at all. If anything, a Segway polo match is analogous to playing an active sport on the grass.

The grass will get mashed like it would with a bunch of people running around, but like Alex said should spring back the same way too.
