I don't write many reviews because I generally expect a product will, at the very least, live up to my expectations. I researched outdoor hoops for several months. I looked at all of the major brands and some of the local brands. I developed a checklist for the things that I wanted, durability, longevity, easy to move up and down, location of the arm that lowers the system, feel of the rim, look of the backboard supports, and so on. Megaslam 72 checked every box. The install was straight forward and simple. My three boys and I dug the hole and set the foundation in one day. My boys love this system. My 8 year old loves that he can slam dunk like his 13 year old brother. From a basketball fundamentals standpoint, I love that dunkball teaches the kids how to attack the paint and get to the rim at an early age. Since installing our Megaslam 72 my boys have become much better at driving hard to the paint. Now they are understanding what I have been telling them :) Highly recommend Megaslam 72!
