Overview
The Rogue Games Box is the standard-bearer for wood plyo boxes, utilized for years in the CrossFit Games competition. This 3-in-1 tool offers height options of 20”, 24”, and 30”, allowing athletes to scale their workouts simply by rotating the box. Unlike the "Flat Pack" version, the standard Rogue Games Box ships fully assembled, making it a "plug-and-play" addition to any home gym or commercial facility.

Key Features and Specifications
Construction: 3/4” thick Radiata Pine ACX (CNC machined A/C grade plywood).

Assembly: Ships fully assembled using high-strength pocket screws and fasteners.
Dimensions: 30” x 24” x 20” (The three height options).
Weight: 56 LB (substantial enough for high stability).
Safety: All edges and corners are rounded over to minimize the risk of scrapes or skinning during missed jumps.
Portability: Features built-in cutout handles on the sides for easy transport within the gym.
Origin: Made in the USA.
Performance Benefits
All-In-One Solution: Replaces three separate plyo boxes with one unit, saving significant floor space in garage gyms.
Competition Ready: Provides the exact dimensions and feel of the official CrossFit Games equipment, ensuring your training translates to the competition floor.
High Stability: The 56 LB weight and wide footprint prevent the box from "walking" or tipping, even during high-velocity jumps or weighted step-ups.
Multipurpose Utility: Strong enough to be used as a makeshift weight bench for seated presses, box squats, or a base for dips.
Vibration Dampening: The 3/4" plywood construction offers a firm but slightly forgiving landing surface compared to steel or concrete.
Maintenance and Care
Surface Usage: For best results and longevity, use the box on a flat, non-slip surface like rubber gym matting. Avoid using on slick tile or polished concrete where the box could slide.
Environment: Store in a dry area. While Radiata Pine is durable, prolonged exposure to high humidity or standing water can lead to warping or wood rot over time.
Cleaning: Wipe down with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use to remove sweat or chalk. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that could strip the wood's natural texture.
Inspection: Periodically check that all pocket screws remain flush and tight. In the rare event a screw begins to back out, retighten it immediately.
Sanding: If the box develops splinters from years of high-impact use, a light hand-sanding with fine-grit sandpaper will restore the smooth finish.
Warranty Information
Rogue Wood Plyo Boxes are backed by a 1-Year Warranty.
Note: This warranty covers manufacturing defects and structural failure under normal use. Damage from outdoor exposure, moisture, or intentional misuse (e.g., slamming heavy metal implements against the wood) is not covered.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between this and the "Flat Pack" version? A: The dimensions and materials are the same, but this version ships fully assembled from Rogue HQ. The Flat Pack version ships unassembled to save on shipping costs.
Q: Can I use this for the "Chad" Hero WOD? A: Yes. The 20" height option is the standard requirement for the Chad 1000X workout, and the box is sturdy enough to handle 1,000 weighted step-ups.
Q: What is the weight limit? A: While Rogue does not list a specific maximum load, the internal center support panel is engineered to handle several hundred pounds, making it safe for the largest athletes performing weighted movements.
Q: Is the wood treated for outdoor use? A: No. If you plan to leave your box outside or in a non-climate-controlled garage, it is recommended to apply a wood sealant or polyurethane to protect it from the elements.
