My 11 yo boy loves how easy it is to lower the hoop. He and his friends have dunk contests and I've really seen a difference in a few weeks in his dexterity and jumping. They are doing 360's and between the legs dunks, on a much lowered hoop. While installation is labor intensive and the backboard is extremely heavy, (me, my wife, and a friend... and my tractor to raise it up), it wasn't easy. ADVICE- don't skimp on helpers. The assembly directions were easy to follow and went as quickly as could be expected when considering the weight of this thing. This was my first in-ground hoop, I have had two previous portable hoops, the last was a Spalding. They were nice rims, but this definitely has a nice soft "shooters" bounce, my boy loves it. We installed a floodlight in the driveway and we play well into the evenings, sorry for the neighbors luck. While the MegaSlam 72 is expensive, it's been a good investment, especially considering these Covid days. Definitely recommend it if you have a basketball family.
