Barbarian 60 Inch Adjustable Inground Basketball System
The Barbarian was developed to not only withstand the strongest slam dunks in the world, but also of the young basketball stars of tomorrow. With the help of world class engineers, the Barbarian is the true world leader in basketball goal design and performance. It has the ability to adjust from 5.5 feet, (the lowest height on any goal available), to 10 feet with unmatched speed and ease. The full steel reinforced backboard provides a true, solid rebound, with the least amount of vibration or shaking. It's powder-coated for a clean smooth feel and look, while also providing maximum protection against rust and weather-related damage.

We set this up in our driveway with no problem other than the weight but this is by far the best basketball hoop we have ever had. If a nuclear bomb hit our neighborhood the hoop would be the only thing left standing. Playing on a high quality basketball hoop like this is infinitely more enjoyable than a piece of junk from [...] We have gone through many basketball hoops and this one is by far the best quality and the most fun to use. The only suggestion I have on the goal is to send out the anchor kit right away so that the concrete can be all set with the bolts in it so you can set the hoop up right when it arrives rather than waiting a week. Other than that it's fantastic. This is the best hoop on the market, and the company was great.
