Pro Dunk Hoops Review vs. Mega Slam Hoops Review and Comparison

www.produnkhoops.com
www.megaslamhoops.com
This is a side by side review of a Pro Dunk Hoops review vs. Mega Slam Hoops. I purchased a new house, renovated it, and committed to donate the existing hoop that came with the house to my church. The hoop was too damaged to donate. Therefore, I then needed a hoop for my house plus one for the church. Since I couldn’t see the Mega Slam or Pro Dunk in person, I bought one of each to compare quality.
I am not a professional reviewer, and I purchased both systems with nothing donated so this is an unbiased review. I spent over 2 hours comparing each part one by one with a friend before attempting the video. He also has a technical background, and we debated the pros/cons for differences of the two designs. I have never done a video review before, and the audio and video quality is not as good as I hoped. I even tried using my Bluetooth headset to stop the wind noise, and that extended this by 45 minutes to get that working correctly. This entire process was much more time consuming than I imagined it to be. When I spoke to Pro Dunk and Mega Slam on the phone prior to purchasing, both companies said their product is the best as you would expect them to say so. I am in sales, so I am always skeptical of other sales reps.
To summarize the Mega Slam vs. Pro Dunk review and comparison, I would say Mega Slam wins on specs and quality of craftsmanship. As I was reviewing the Pro Dunk hoop it has solid specs, but it had a home grown feel to it in terms of craftsmanship. I have seen better painting, powder coating, welding, and padding on the much less expensive hoops sold at Dick’s. If you are buying a Mercedes caliber hoop at a premium price point, it shouldn’t have these imperfections.
Since filming I have played on the Mega Slam and Pro Dunk. The Mega Slam has a more solid feel vs the Pro Dunk with the thicker pole and steel framing on the backboard. This is the most comprehensive comparison I could do to review the Mega Slam hoop vs. Pro Dunk hoop part by part. I hope you enjoyed watching my review of the following products...

Made my choice easy and may I say kudos to you sir for donating the other goal to your church

This is one of the videos that helped me decide to purchase a Mega Slam Hoop. I considered Mega Slam, Pro Dunk and Goalrilla for my in-ground hoop and I am extremely pleased with the Mega Slam 60 that I purchased. This is the best in ground hoop I have ever used, it is extremely solid with no vibration. Mega Slam gives you a warranty on the backboard that is unbelievable! If it ever breaks, even if it is your fault, they will send you a new backboard and not even charge you for the shipping. They don’t just send glass replacement, they send an entire backboard. This warranty is a one-time replacement. This is a fantastic company with a fantastic product. You will not regret your decision to go with Mega Slam.

I am looking at hoops for my son and was leaning towards ProDunk. Then I found MegaSlam and this video. This was GREAT. One thing that I will add is that there have been some modifications to the PD hoop (i.e. thicker steal, etc.), but this video points out some of the things that I would have NEVER thought about such as the backboard construction, finish, the H design on PS, etc. This video has educated me so much more and now the choice is clear. MS. Thanks J Dez!

You nailed everything in this review. I've had a MS 60 installed since 2014 and play on it extensively and it still looks brand new. I'm in Cincinnati and the last couple winters have been harsh but you wouldn't be able to tell by the condition of the MS. The only difference in mine is that I have a Gared Snapback rim installed (the official rim of the NBA from 1981-2008). To piggyback on the Savvy Tech's mention on customer service. I traded several emails with Matt from MS and he was beyond helpful. I too was down to MS and ProDunk. Matt gave me a bullet point list of everything MS did better and the costs they absorb to bring the customer the best possible home system. I could not be more satisfied! For any of you in cold weather states or those that have alot of rain/snow in the winters....do not fear about how this system will hold up...it will continue looking new while all the Goalrilla/Goaliath systems rust out inside of two years.

[@aurelius1620]

In the winter what did you do in the winter because of the snow do you put a cover on the hoop and where can I find it

[@abuelb]

@@aurelius1620 you could probably just lower the goal and put a tarp (from harbor freight) over the entire board and goal to keep it from getting wet or snowed on. That's what I plan on doing to keep it clean during winter. Also I plan on spraying WD40 on all nuts and bolts once or twice a year to keep them from rusting.

[@QU1RKONE]

I found your comparison of both systems extremely helpful. It made purchasing the MS-72 much less stressful. Thanks for taking the time to put together this video.

[@kearley]

Big thanks! Been looking for "this" review for 3 yrs! Just what I needed to pull the trigger on a few Mega Slam Hoops...

[@tylerfisher9932]

I know I'm years off from when you posted this, but I was debating both these systems for my hoop system. Definitely going with MS!!! Thank you

[@SLangshotTV]

Great review! I was going back and forth between the two until I saw this review. I almost feel bad for Pro Dunk Hoops but with all things being fair and both products side by side fresh out the box, the craftsmanship speaks for itself. Thanks for taking the time to share this.

[@robblangjahr1473]

I have been in the market for about a month and was all about the pro Dunk (mainly because my neighbor has one and it works) but after seeing this I have changed my mind. Glad I saw the video. Thanks Megaslam.

[@c0olj85]

By far the best online review and comparison side by side. Thank you so much! Very easy to make a decision after watching this review. Thanks again!

[@dannysandoval5703]

this was extremely helpful. definitely going for the mega slam

[@bryantrussel5356]

You are super cool. The best and clearest review I've seen after much searching. Thanks!

[@tonygreer8695]

Absolutely awesome and informative review and level of detail was amazing answering many questions that are very difficult to get until after you purchase. 5 star dude!!

[@MikeS3000]

Thanks for the review. I have a Mega Slam XL arriving tomorrow and you just reaffirmed my choice!

[@MichaelWilson-er5ht]

Now that you've had the Mega Slam XL for 2 years, what do you think?

[@dstrait22003]

hows the xl treatin ya? thinkin about getting one.

[@nashty1326]

Thanks for this video. And good for you for donating the other one to the church, the kids at that church are pretty spoiled now

[@usglenn101]

This video made me change my decision and pick the correct hoop. MegaSlam 72 for life...there is no other choice!

[@cag66]

Excellent review. Thank You so much for doing this. Makes the choice very easy.

[@jtotheizzh]

Great detailed review! Think I'm convinced!

[@MichaelWilson-er5ht]

Thank you for doing this review, very helpful!

[@DanPrinMan]

Spot on, man. Not sure I can afford either at this point, but if I ever budge and spend the money, I know which one I'm going with.

[@KyleDynamite2013]

[@JackPetosa]

Wow the megaslam hoop seems way better. Now I know which is good! Thanks.

[@mr2urbo01]

perfect review. thanks

[@kepler240]

Great video.

[@worstnightmare3134]

How about Mega slam and pro dunk Vs Shaquille O'neal who would win?

[@hongkongbuffet22]

Great job, thanks!

[@jessekehler4888]

I wish I could afford just one of these

[@charlesmiles8811]

Well, that was an easy choice to make after seeing this.

[@zahavablockify]

Any recommendation for a megaslams installer in LA?

[@jdez4049]

You can try looking @ www.megaslamhoops.com/installation

[@NSXchris]

wow thanks so much!!

[@Johnrap]

4:35 is quite significant.

[@WaffleMmann]

Is there even any comparison? The mega slam is obviously much better by the content of this review. The pro dunk seems cheaply built and designed whereas the mega slam seems authentic and durable. Thanks for the review.

[@qtarleton]

wow what a fucking review you are my hero you fucking guy you...megaslam all the way for my dedicated outdoor back yard court....fuckin love you for this
