Description

Introducing the Viper Defender III Dartboard Surround, an essential accessory for any dart enthusiast looking to maintain pristine wall surfaces while enhancing their darting experience. This innovative surround combines style, functionality, and ease of use, making it a must-have for both casual home players and serious competitors seeking peak performance and protection. The Viper Defender III is crafted from high-density EVA foam, delivering robust defense against stray darts that can otherwise damage your walls. Its 1" thick construction ensures that most wayward darts stay securely lodged without the risk of penetration. With an impressive 8.2 square feet of protective coverage, your walls can remain unmarred and pristine, especially helpful with younger and less experienced darters. The Defender III features a reversible design, offering a clean, alternative side to keep your dartboard area looking stylish while extending the lifespan of your surround. This interchangeable nature allows players to refresh the appearance of their setup with minimal effort, maintaining a neat and professional look over time. This surround is engineered to be universally compatible with both standard 18" and slightly smaller 17.75" regulation sisal dartboards. Ensuring a seamless fit, the included adhesive compression band offers an easy solution to adapt around different board sizes, guaranteeing that your setup remains intact without gaps that could allow darts to slip through. Playing on harder surfaces can wear down your darts over time. The Viper Defender III not only shields your surroundings, but it also cushions the impact of missed darts, preserving their condition and enhancing their longevity. This feature is particularly useful for players who engage in games on harder surfaces such as concrete or brick. The installation of the Viper Defender III is remarkably simple, making it accessible to everyone. Its segmental design means you can easily snap the pieces together and position them around your dartboard. No need to drill extra holes in your walls or use additional hardware; the surround stays in place with minimal effort, allowing you to focus on the game and not the setup.

  • Great way to save the wall behind my dart board.
Color: Black
I installed a new dart board recently and the first night my wife and I were playing darts I stuck a dart into the drywall. She did not miss the board all evening...I did. Anyway, the need for some protection around the dart board sent me scurrying to Amazon and doing a search. There were a number of options as to the size of the protection around the dart board. I opted for the larger and longer Viper Defender III Extended Length Dartboard Surround Wall Protector by GLD Products. This product is light weight, it is about one inch thick, and the panels fit together almost perfectly and it could not be any easier to install. It simply fits around the outside of my dartboard. No glue, no Velcro, no screws and no mounts. The Defender III wall protector simply rests on my board. I have missed my dart board a half dozen times since installing the Defender and it prevented the darts from reaching the drywall - thus no damage. The darts stick in the Defender and have not fallen to the floor. Overall, the Viper Defender III by GLD products is saving my walls from damage. Mission accomplished!! ... show more

  • Just what I needed
Color: Black
Easy to assemble. Looks great. Very useful

  • Needs an adhesive!
Color: Black
What you see is what you get. A big pad that puzzles together around your dart board. I love that they include a gasket to fit the smaller diameter boards. Only reason I knocked a star off is because it's not affixed to the wall in any way. So WHEN, not if, someone sticks a dart in it, it gets knocked off center and you have to readjust it after they've pulled their dart. ... show more

  • Nice product with some customization
Color: Black
Nice surround that will hopefully protect my wall when kids miss. Used with Corona Vision Dartboard light and had to get creative with routing power wire. I wish Viper had some extra options for an LED surround frame and some removable channels for wire routing. Had to make my own channel and protect wires with an aluminum strip so defender remained flush with wall. Still researching LED options. ... show more

  • Felt Covering Not Glued Down
Color: Black
The felt covering on the foam backboard was not glued down in several places (see pics). For the $53 this thing cost, I'm VERY disappointed in the quality!!! I am returning this one and giving them another chance to send me a better quality product. Given the (lack of) quality in what I received, there is either NO Quality Control or whoever's job it was to inspect the product before shipping to the customer didn't do their job. What I received should never have been shipped to a customer in the first place - a waste of my time to have to return / replace it. I will update this review based upon that return/replacement experience. Update: I received the "replacement" shipment quickly and it was double-boxed. The inside box was crumpled on the edges and not completely taped shut, so wasn't sure what to expect. The product shipped to replace the original order was in better condition than the originally shipped product, but still had the same problem with the felt not glued down around the edges / peeling up in several places (see the added pics). I noticed where it is being made (PRC - Peoples Republic of China), so not real surprised in the (lack of) quality control. I was having a party and needed to use it to avoid damaging the wall, so bought some gel craft glue at Hobby Lobby and used that to glue it down myself. Summary thoughts - PROS: The Shipper did a good job shipping the replacement promptly and I didn't have any issues returning the first one ordered. It was very easy to install and take down (less than 5 minutes). The backboard surround works well at stopping errant darts and they stick well into the foam (don't bounce out like plywood often does). It is a nice clean look (after I glued the felt covering down myself). CONS: For $53 (a LOT IMO for a piece of foam cut into 6 puzzle pieces and covered with felt), I was expecting MUCH better quality of fit/finish. If I had only paid $20 or so, I'd expect these kinds of issues - NOT for >$50. The quality of manufacturing and/or lack of Quality Control given the number of complaints online about the felt peeling and puzzle pieces not lining up is not very good (maybe they don't start peeling until after they leave China). Bottom-line: If I was not in a hurry (needed it quickly for a party), I would look for large pieces of foam and cut one similar myself, and/or attach it to a lightweight backboard. I like the functionality of the product and the area it covers, but I don't like the quality of product for the money spent. Hopefully, GLD Products will improve their quality controls or change manufacturers to a company capable of providing a product worthy of > $50! ... show more

  • A must have for novice dart players
Color: Black
This Viper wall protector is really good, it's got plenty of room around the board to catch pretty much every stray dart. Plus it looks and feels super cool. I tried a circular wall protector before I got this one and this is by far, much much better.
