What hockey families say about Dangleverse
★ 4.4 across 37 reviews of Odd Man Rush, our first video game made specifically for stick handling (sold separately)
Best Video game for hockey families“Bought this for my hockey obsessed tyke level son for Christmas and it’s a huge hit! I think the hairs on my knees are starting to grow back from the reduction of mini stick time this game has caused! We have it hooked…”
Seriously fun!“We’ve got the whole family around the TV everyone is having a blast! The tech worked straight out of the box, as advertised, up and running in minutes!”
Great stick handling app“Fun app that's easy to setup and use. All of my kids really enjoy it. Love that users have to keep their head up while stick handling”
“Kid loves it. We have a number of different training aids for stick handling but my 8 year old seems more excited about this one than the others. He's invited a couple friends over today to check it out!”
How it works
You stick handle on the Danglemat and the game follows the puck.
Puck on the mat, iPhone sees it, your screen follows. That is the whole trick.
A regulation weight puck that glides like ice. The games are on ice, so it is only fitting that you get an ice-like surface for the best possible experience.
Your iPhone sits on a stand above the mat and watches the puck. No sensors.
The game runs on your TV, tablet, phone, Mac or Meta Quest. Every move you make on the mat happens on screen.
The Danglemat
Before it was a game controller, the Danglemat was the slickest, most portable off-ice surface we could make. Regulation-weight puck, grippy underside, and bumpers that keep the puck in play. We use high-quality, expensive materials: the mat fabric alone costs us $115 for the Arena size. The puck is made of a special plastic with textured sides. It's worth it, because you're getting the slickest, most durable off-ice experience on the market.

We make mats in small batches, so stock is genuinely limited. The dates on each card are when a mat ships, and the counts are what is left in that batch.
