to those with astroturf set ups, what do you do with them in the winter? i probably could take my set up apart or just move the stuff out of winters way but i just want to know what you do with them. i live in bend oregon so winter isn't too brutal but its by no means a mild inch of snow... i just don't want to ruin my set up. and i did search bar, but nothing really came up

this is the first summer i have my setup but i think i'll just let it be, i even think the snow might stick better to turf then bare wood, so in winter i'll just be blessed with a real snowy drop-in....

all it does is just sit there with snow on it, maybe the edges get a bit frozen. no big deal.

yeah out door turf football feilds keep it out all winter and its the same next season so i wouldnt worry about it to much, the wood might be discolored next season but thats not a big deal.

its called Outdoor Decking Carpet, rednecks have it on their front porches of their trailers, so it is made to stand the elements. i still use the turf in winter, cuz it holds snow better than slick plywood.
