Review of the Mega Slam Hoops 72 Model

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.ย. 2024
  • This Mega Slam Hoops review was done to show how the system performs in the real world by a real customer. When looking for a new adjustable basketball hoop for my family I had a difficult time making such an expensive online purchase since I could not physically see a Mega Slam at a local showroom.
    Included in the video is my testimonial about the product and some actual raw, uncut footage of me shooting, slam dunking, and hanging on the rim along with a glimpse of the neighborhood kids playing on the Mega Slam 72 lowered to a height they could shoot on and have fun.
    We absolutely love our new Mega Slam and it's been great unplugging the kids from their electronic devices and shooting hoops as a family. They are so excited to get home from school to play on the new hoop every day, and we are very pleased with our decision to purchase what I believe is the best adjustable basketball hoop on the market.

    Great review. I just returned a cheap 54 inch Goaliath system. I didn't even unbox after seeing all the wobbling complaints online. This 72 inch unit looks awesome. You just helped with my decision

    I'm in year 4 with my Mega Slam (Cincinnati, OH.) and it still looks brand new after 3 Ohio winters. Best residential system there is. The only tweak I made was installing a Gared Snapback rim (official NBA rim from 1981-2008). The MS rim is very, very nice, but I grew up on the 80's and 90's NBA and had to have "their" rim ;)

    question about your concrete court....it looks like the pole is right on the edge where as on other vids and installations they have a small square of concrete maybe 2 ft by 2 ft or smaller just off the main concrete pad. When the backboard is all the way up at 10', does the post interfere with playing area at all? What dimension is your play court area. Somebody told me that a 30' x 50' is necessary for real 3 point line with room to shoot behind. Thanks for your video.

    • @southernguy299
      @southernguy299  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I decided not to do the smaller 20" x 20" anchor concrete pad adjacent to larger concrete playing area because I wanted a straight line of concrete so it is easier to mow behind it. The post doesn't interfere with the playing area on my court because the backboard has a 4' overhang, and this allows for safe play.

    • @judahryan

    • @southernguy299
      @southernguy299  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Concrete pad for the court was poured at the same time when setting the anchor.

  • @chilinsnOball
    @chilinsnOball 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    very quiet compared to other goals i’ve heard. you just install according to instructions? notice a lot of backboards sound like a hollow gong when struck. this is solid like i would prefer.

    • @southernguy299
      @southernguy299  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks for the review, just looking at these hoops now👍I’m very curious, how far is it from the back of the base (back edge of install slab) to the front of the rim? I’m trying to determine how much area in length I need just for the install of the unit (front to back), thank you🙏

    • @southernguy299
      @southernguy299  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I added the net and the light. the light is incredible.

  • @Phenom-rl5pr
    @Phenom-rl5pr 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Excellent set up. I'm on the market for a 72 glass inground. I've seen some spalding and goalrilla sets. Haven't seen this one. But looks bad ass. Did you consider other brands? How is it holding up, now that it's been a few years. Also did you install or had a company install? Lastly was it mounted directly on top of the concrete or dug a hole and filed with concrete. Hope you answer. Thank you

    • @southernguy299
      @southernguy299  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Holding up great! This thing is a beast compared o the others. You can find all the installation info @ www.megaslamhoops.com/installation

    Great review, thanks for taking the time!
    Looks like your court is the neighborhood hangout!
    Was the concrete poured when you moved in or did you have to have it done yourself aftwards?
    I'm researching tree clearing and getting a 35' x 50' slab poured in my backyard right now. Makes a $2,000 hoop the cheap part of the budget! Then I'm contemplating adding a plastic tile on top of the cement (a la Sport Court).

    • @southernguy299
      @southernguy299  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This was an older home we moved into that we renovated. After we moved in, the court was one of the things we added ourselves.

    • @southernguy299
