Designed to install in a driveway or other static environment, this Spalding in-ground basketball system will turn your home into a jump-shooting haven. The system starts with a 54-inch-wide, 5/32-inch-thick acrylic backboard with a heavy-duty steel frame. The board offers similar action to pro backboards, helping you shoot layups and bank shots with confidence. The Arena Slam breakaway rim, meanwhile, holds up well against the force of emphatic slams--a must for modern hoops. And hops-challenged players will love the hoop's U-Turn lift system, which includes a removable crank that lets you adjust the height from 7 to 10 feet in infinite increments. Other features include an institutional-style wrap for the rim; a three-piece, 4-inch square pole; an authentic board pad; and an 18-inch board offset. About Spalding
