Description

A Hoop System That Never Quits

When it comes to outdoor basketball, you need a hoop that can handle anything—intense pickup games, high-flying dunks, and, of course, unpredictable weather. The Bison 5-9/16″ Mega-Duty Basketball System is built for just that. Designed for high-traffic courts, this system is strong enough to withstand constant use, rough play, and even the occasional player who thinks they’re the next Shaq.

Massive 5-9/16″ Steel Post – Built Like a Tank

At the heart of this system is the 5-9/16″ diameter galvanized steel post, which provides unmatched stability and strength. Unlike lightweight residential hoops that shake with every shot, this pole ensures a solid, vibration-free playing experience, no matter how intense the game gets. The thick, rust-resistant steel construction guarantees years of durability with minimal maintenance.

Indestructible 42″ x 60″ Steel Backboard

Some backboards crack, shatter, or warp over time—but not this one. The 42″ x 60″ steel backboard is built for maximum durability, making it the perfect choice for outdoor courts where equipment takes a beating.

• Heavy-duty steel construction ensures long-lasting performance
• Powder-coated finish resists rust and corrosion
• Perfect for high-impact play—no cracks, no warping, just basketball

If your court needs a backboard that can handle slams, bank shots, and errant baseball throws, this is the one.

Pro-Style Breakaway Rim – Dunk Without Worry

The included breakaway rim is designed for dunks, aggressive layups, and intense rebounding. It flexes under pressure, reducing stress on the backboard and post, then snaps back into place for the next play. No more bent rims, no more broken backboards—just pure, uninterrupted action.

Weather-Resistant & Low Maintenance

Outdoor courts have to deal with rain, snow, wind, and blazing sun, but this system is built to withstand the elements. The galvanized steel post and powder-coated components prevent rust and corrosion, so you won’t have to worry about frequent repairs or replacements. Just install it and enjoy years of worry-free play.

FAQ

1: How does the steel backboard compare to glass or acrylic?
Steel backboards are far more durable than glass or acrylic, making them ideal for outdoor courts that see a lot of action. While glass provides a better rebound for competitive play, steel is virtually indestructible and perfect for playgrounds and recreational facilities.

2: Can I install this system myself?
This is a permanent, in-ground system that requires a concrete base. While self-installation is possible with the right equipment, we highly recommend professional installation to ensure proper setup and safety.

3: Is this system adjustable?
No, this is a fixed-height system, designed for maximum durability and stability. If you need an adjustable hoop, Bison offers other models with height-adjustable features.
