Spalding 60" Basketball Goal Review

Quick Review of my Spalding Basketball Goal

[@sallen4848]

Good video sir, especially the pro tip about sealing the crank pipe with tape to keep water out, good call!

[@dadcastanza1898]

Thank you for the concise review brother.

[@jasonjbbola279]

Yo, like this goal seen it at academy it was higher priced, Def will consider it before they go back up, good review showed exactly what I would want to see what it could handle,

[@johnpelkey9426]

Awesome information! Just bought one.

[@quepid101]

Appreciate the review my friend. You still got bounce Brodie

[@rissonjones1082]

I just got another Spalding 60 inch a few weeks ago I already finished putting it together it’s in my backyard and I filled up sand in my base so the base can be a lot stabled. I now have a full court in my backyard I still have my 54 inch pro glide for almost 3 years and it’s still holding up well.

[@HyderAli-qu8sd]

Great video..still used this video 1 year later and it still advises greatly. Thanks. I bought one for only 170 from walmart because of some damadged done to the box, luckily no damadge inside. However when filled with water i got some leakage.(has happened with every single hoop of mine). Ended up using sand and it is quite heavy but managable. Great hoop i highly recommend it.

[@WeightBully]

Great but seriously contact Spalding send them your address and receipt and they will send you a new base and just keep it as a spare, friend did that with his pole as he butchered it putting it together and ga w me the extra one, $170 is a steal👍🏾

thanks for the review. I just purchased one, and this feedback helped

[@WeightBully]

Andrew Saludez awsome goal and completely interchangeable with all the other Spalding goals if you want a different type of goal. Some advice use wood and a 50lvs weight to mate the poles much easier

I got 2 basketball hoops in my backyard. I got a lifetime basketball hoop with a 44 inch impact backboard that's mounted on a pole like a year. and i also got a lifetime 46 shatter proof basketball hoop with a quick adjust last Wednesday. I had to put it together on Thursday because after i went to go get the hoop it was already dark outside so i said I'll put this together tomorrow morning so the next morning i woke up at 10 am and went outside to go put my new basketball hoop together. It took me 4 hours to put it together and after i finished putting together the basketball hoop i put some water on the base.

[@amysteffon8723]

This is a great review. I just finish installing this today. Can you elaborate what you mean by using electrical tape on the crank adjuster?

[@WeightBully]

Amy Steffon awesome I heard walmart put the price back up to $285, did you get it for $199? But yeah just lay it down or get a ladder and take some electical tape around the top of the pole where the plug goes then use a zip ties to hold it down, works well so far not a drop of water has gotten inside the pole.

[@amysteffon8723]

Yes I bought it $200 out the door a week ago. Price now went up. I'll try the tape suggestion...thank you!

[@WeightBully]

Even tho it’s 4 years ago, thanks for the review I just bought mine today but couldn’t find it under $360 but hopefully it’s worth it

How is it?

[@CalculatedKrazy]

Hey how did u like the 54 in the back ? I have a spAlding 54 inch that has the ball return , but the base and ball return in the front kinduh dangerous when taking layups or dunking , would u say really either of these rims is fine to dunk on \ hard layups ( in terms of landing after ) at any angle since the base is more in the back ? Thanks .

[@DavidThomas-id2fz]

add some anti-freeze to the water in the base and you won't have to drain it in the winter

[@WeightBully]

Never thought about that appreciate it man👍🏽

[@nybirdman]

Or they make something called “base gel” which does the exact same thing as anti freeze.

[@meatdogg101]

I know it's been a year since you uploaded this video but if you dont want to drain the water in the winter. Just add a 1/2 cup of antifreeze and it won't freeze. Nice setup also.

Just got to read over and over before you put each part on and you will be ok good looking brudda ✌🏾

[@ryanmagiera4402]

I just bought it, and there is a crack in the base. it is on the top of the base so then the water when filled will probably not spill out -- but I am wondering if I should return it or not ... having made 2 different reviews, do you think if I tape it up it will be fine? I kind of don't want to build it all together to find out it won't hold the water... then again I can add cinderblocks or weight of somekind on the back too and just paying attention I can make it work. what you think? @Weight Bully

[@WeightBully]

A crack very weird indeed. Two ways to go, you can take the base to walmart and they should switch it out or call Spalding they will send another no issue and you will have a extra one, 👍🏾

[@RonononoaZoro]

When I bounced the top, middle, and bottom poles together, the final pole looks bent a little forward. Should I keep assembling or would you recommend straightening out? If so you have any tips?

[@WeightBully]

They are not to be bounced thet ha e to be pressed joined, either with a heavy weight at the top, or a car or truck slowly meshing them one section at a time, stop now if they are not straight it will damage the pole and you will have to hope Spalding replaces as it will be your fault for not following the directions,

[@WeightBully]

Nice hurry they have been going out of stock I hear

[@rissonjones1082]

I have the same hoop like yours but i never dunked on it I had it about 2 months. And it’s a lot better than my other hoops i have in my backyard. I have 2 54 inch hoops the first one i have i had it for 2 years but i haven’t played on it a lot like i played on it last year i still have it and the other one i have i had it for almost 7 months. I be playing on it a lot. Sometimes i be dunking on it but not all the time. I be shooting on it a lot more than dunking on it. I be playing on the 60 inch a lot in my front yard. I prefer that the 60 inch is a lot better than the 54 inch because the backboard is a lot bigger than the 54 inch and the poles are way bigger and stronger and the backboard doesn’t shake much when i hit the ball on the top of the backboard. It’s the best hoop i ever had. My hoop is up like on 10’6. I took the handle off of my hoop when i be raising the hoop up and down cause i don’t want no one to raise it down and try to dunk on it.

[@viken2890]

he got some good bounce

[@DK-wg1be]

I just set mine up. It’s leaning forward and it’s kind of crooked. Do you know what the problem could be? It’s really giving me OCD. When I put the 3 poles together It was slightly slanted, but when everything’s together it looks extremely slanted forward, and I feel the slight misalignment in the pole shouldn’t have been that bad. It has to be something else. Maybe it’s the backboard I’m not too sure. Would love some feedback.

[@WeightBully]

Look at the holes on the pole and holes on the base for vertical alignment, there should be two sets of holes and the furthest one back are the 90 degree holes, also when aligned put a brick under the main pole to help with dunks

[@rayraykap]

Same issue

[@devindepoy2878]

Can the tension on the breakaway rim be tightened or loosened?

[@WeightBully]

Yep either there is a spring and screw, easy

[@fizy8715]

Do you think the Spalding nba 54 inch Portable Basketball Hoop with Polycarbonate Backboard also a good choice

[@WeightBully]

It's decent but my neighbor has replaced his backboard already mines is older and I dunk on it, he cannot touch a 10ft yet, but spalding did warranty it,

[@tylerrobinson8963]

I'm wearing myself out looking at portable basketball hoops. I had a slab of concrete put down for a court so I can get some exercise. The biggest concern for me is I don't want the backboard to shake like crazy when I shoot. I won't be dunking or anything like that so I'm not worried about that. I can't afford some of the higher end hoops that are 700-1,300 dollars. I also would prefer to have some life off the backboard. I understand everything can't be perfect on a budget I'm just looking for the best option up to $500.

[@WeightBully]

This will easily suit your needs. Backboard is not cheap, go check them out in the store, they put the most of the money in the Backboard and rim where it needs to be, just FYI if you want to inground it you can pour concrete with some cut rebar in the bottom of the pole with a box wood to make a concrete pole remove the box wood then plant that in the ground and concrete the bottom the boom a bad ass inground with a top notch Backboard. Only hitch on this hoop is its harder to move around because of the weight of the Backboard.

It cost $199 but I'm going to pay $220 because I'm also going to buy a new net too just in case the old net gets messed up. I'm thinking about putting antifreeze in my bases.

Got to be a lil more specific you mean the one that attatch from the base or the ones that attatched to the backboard, if backboard youlay it down no rim the attatch them to it, they are self locking if you mean the ones on the base to pole you will need to muscle it in place and used a skinny screwdriver to hold one side as you slide the bolt through,

How does the backboard sound when the ball hits it? I know with my older Spalding 48" backboard that I need to replace, it has that annoying loud plastic-ey "boing" sound. I know acrylic isn't like thick glass, but thinking this is probably thicker and less noisy? So far not sure what the low prices were for, but still seeing it on the Walmart site for $326 even though there is an icon that states it is on clearance but no other price shown. Thanks.

Player 0001 300s wth it is at the store for 199 you have to buy it there, its hard to tell I left the film on but its not annoying like the 54 across the way its cool I do alot of bank shots and layups doint hear it like next door

Perfect. I got similar info from another video poster on the same item. Will most likely go there after work to check it out (local stores show stock). I only want the backboard/goal.

I went to walmart a couple weeks ago and got a lifetime basketball hoop it was on sale for 84.00. I paid like $90 for this hoop. It's not put together yet but when this hoop gets put together I'll make a video of my new lifetime basketball hoop.

@@rissonjones9752 cool maybe do one putting it together as well,

[@ballerheattopten8238]

We are having problems putting it together the poles are bent and everything I need help

[@WeightBully]

They unpacked bent or install was not seated correctly? If they are bent call Spalding they will replace the poles, careful how you join them if they are not mated correctly they can break,

[@austinmerritt8291]

Is it adjustable and do u think it can hold me if I hang on it I’m about 85 pounds

[@WeightBully]

Yes go down to 6'5 or lower and up to 10 1/2, I doint recommend hanging just not made for that, you looking a 800-1000 goals for that

[@austinmerritt8291]

Ok can u recommend any hoops that I could possibly hang on?

@@austinmerritt8291 nearly same specs but it's inground and every thing is beefed to be hung on, but you see the price, I have direct experience with it one of the best out there

[@Code13Tactical]

What’s the offset on this?

[@dudeseriously57]

I just got mine and it was not on sale 😒. It good so far.

[@chrisflores8362]

I just picked one up on clearance for $199 man o jumped on that one

[@WeightBully]

Chris Flores hard to beat yanked on pretty hard today and it just stood there its like its taunting me lol, enjoy bro

[@Owenhughes367]

I just got won but we can't put the metal pipes together

[@WeightBully]

Take the poles line two up fist following the directions to which pole goes where, get a wood block or 2x4 and use a heavy weight must be 40lbs or more to drive the poles together, you will need the top of a suv or truck or ladder for the last one, can use Dumbbells, heavy iron even used a idling truck bumper to drive the poles before,

[@matt_longest]

Weight Bully can you elaborate more in detail i’m having the same problem

[@loicy.4004]

Ah man bruh no video of installation? Good form though

[@WeightBully]

Very easy to install especially with power tools,

[@stormrider091]

Did you mark how far the pole had to be banged down beforehand?

[@edrandall8744]

I cant get poles to bang together. The whole 4 inches

[@oscar9937]

Derek S T Sr. Answers please

[@oscar9937]

Weight Bully answers please

[@wheresgex]

Don’t buy a in ground just take apart the bottom of the hoop and put it in the ground, that is basically a inground hoop just with a portable bottom

[@WeightBully]

Nope dawg they are not the same we filled one with concrete then put it in the ground held up fine, in grounds have a stronger base as the portable ones rely on braces for strenght,

[@wheresgex]

Weight Bully oh ok, I just know if you do it right you can avoid having to buy a 1,000 dollar in ground

[@WeightBully]

@@wheresgex Yeah I am with ya 1000 is just too much they act like we all shaq's out here,
