Product description

The Silverback NXT is pushing the envelope for portable basketball hoops. The advanced technology and strategic engineering of this goal makes for faster assembly, improved rebound, superior strength, unmatched stability, and effortless transportability. Compare the features of the Silverback NXT to other portable goals on the market, and you will see why this hoop is the next big thing in portable basketball hoops. - Stabili-Frame – The Silverback NXT features Stabili-Frame technology, creating unmatched stability for increased playability and added safety. The slanted pole design was engineered to offer even weight distribution across the entire base. Unlike competitor goals, the pole directly connects to the steel frame below the base, increasing the integrity of the structure. Compare to most portable hoops that utilize the blow molded base as a support structure – which is typically the first piece that fails. The shape of the base and the weighted ballast wheels create an optimal center of gravity, ensuring your goal will stay upright. Infinity Edge Backboard - Unlike traditional backboards that are framed by a plastic or metal edge, the Silverback NXT features an Infinity Edge Backboard with edges that wrap around to the back of the backboard as one continuous material. This design not only creates the modern, clean look of the hoop, but, more importantly, gives the backboard unmatched strength – greatly reducing “dead" spots in the backboard that are common among portable hoops. This technique, folds the edges of the material backward, creating a stronger face for superior rebound. Ergo-Move - The sloped base design on the Silverback NXT creates a completely unique weight distribution that allows the goal to be moved by two people with much greater ease than traditional portable basketball goals. This design enables the goal to be tilted backward onto its large weighted wheels, relieving much of the weight that a person must support, similar to the engineering of a wheelbarrow. The hoop is then easily rolled to its new location while the rear kickstand prevents the goal from tipping over. Quick-Play - No one likes long assembly projects, so the Silverback NXT was designed to make assembly as simple as possible. The NXT comes partially assembled with attached hardware, so you simply attach the major pieces using only a few required tools. The NXT allows you to assemble your goal in approximately 90 minutes, so you can start playing.

• ULTIMATE STRENGTH AND STABILITY - Stabili-Frame steel-on-steel connection between steel chassis and main pole
• INCREASED REBOUND - Infinity Edge Backboard that folds backward for increased rigidity
• EASILY MOVE THE GOAL - ErgoMove wheel-barrow design for an easy lift-and-roll action
• ULTRA-FAST ASSEMBLY - Assembles in 90-minutes or less with Quick-Play design and preassembled parts
• HEIGHT-ADJUSTABLE - 7.5’ to 10' height adjustability (in 6" increments) and 26" overhang under the goal

User questions & answers

Question:	So is the backboard polycarbonate or Acrylic? Or something else
Answer:	Hi there, Thank you for contacting us! The NXT 54" Backboard is made of polycarbonate. If you need more information please reach out to us at [email protected] Kind regards, Escalade Sports
Question:	Is the backboard shatterproof
Answer:	This backboard is made of a polycarbonate material and does not shatter like glass.If you have any other questions, please reach out to [email protected] you
Question:	Can you dunk on this setup
Answer:	These can be lightly dunked on but are not meant to be hung on or dunked hard on. They are not as good for dunking as the in ground systems are. If you have any more questions, please reach out to [email protected] You
Question:	How easy is it to drain the water? Have to tip the whole sideways or backwards to do it
Answer:	Not easy, but not hard. You'd think they would have a drain on the bottom (the piece is called "ballast"). So you need to tip it on the side or forward. They have a kickstand to make it easier. With a helper, it shouldn't be difficult. But honestly, none of these nets are truly meant to be moved around a lot, or drained with ease, that I saw. They're all going to need to be weighed down somehow. If quick drainage is your biggest concern, you should look at other hoops. Maybe there's one that has a bottom drain.

User questions & answers

Question:	I can only get the pole to go 3.5 inches into the base after slamming it over 200 times...any suggestions on getting it to go further
Answer:	Wish you had read my previous response. The paint around that area needs to be sanded down some on the bottom pole to adequately slide the poles together. The system will still be very sturdy where you slammed it down, just know the measurement for the height adjuster will be an inch or two off. Otherwise try to spray some WD40 in the cracks to slide it down more. You should be fine.
Question:	What are the dimensions of the base
Answer:	Roughly 36" x 64"... total base width/depth
Question:	what is the distance between the backboard and the base
Answer:	If I understand your question correctly, the pole leading to the backboard is angled at roughly 60 degrees leaving the backboard out in front of the base a foot or two. There is roughly 4 foot of pole between the bottom of the backboard and the start of the base when the hoop is at 10 feet. Let me know if you have any other questions. This Hoop is Amazing!
Question:	How easy is it to move? Is it easy enough that I could put it away in a garage after every use. I live in an uptight community that doesn't allow portable hoops to stay out
Answer:	It's actually really easy to move! I put in around 400+ lbs of sand, so the entire thing weighs A LOT! We move ours often and don't have any trouble at all. My only question to you is the height of your garage! This goal is truly a "Beast," so it's heavy & extremely sturdy. Make 100% sure that you've got the room. Hope this helps!

Hone your jumpshot in your spare moments or perform a backyard dunking drill with this Lifetime portable basketball system. Unlike in-ground basketball hoops--which are typically anchored in concrete--the portable hoop rolls on wheels, letting you position the basket support in any desired location, from the back patio to the middle of the cul-de-sac. All you have to do is fill the polyethylene base with water or sand and play.

Lifetime knows that dunking and above-the-rim play are a huge part of modern basketball, which is why the hoop comes with both a height adjustment mechanism and a spring-back rim. The three-piece, 3.5-inch Round Action Grip pole includes a set of counter-balance springs to help you easily raise and lower the backboard from 7.5 to 10 feet with one hand. Thanks to the handy technology, players of all ages and skill levels can enjoy the game on their own terms, while aspiring dunkers can gradually raise the level 6 inches at a time as their vertical improves. The Slam-It Rim, meanwhile, is designed specifically for players who like to throw down. The solid-steel rim features double-compression springs that give way during dunks to protect the player, then spring back once released. The orange rim is also supported by 1/2-inch braces, with welded-steel net hooks and an all-weather nylon net.

And players needn't worry about the backboard shattering after a nasty spill, as the 50-inch Shatter Guard backboard boasts Makrolon polycarbonate technology that's virtually unbreakable. Other features include fade-resistant graphics screen-printed onto the backboard with UV-resistant inks and a powder-coated, rust-resistant finish around the pole. The hoop carries a five-year warranty that covers everything on the system.

Amazon.com Basketball System Buying Guide

With the high-quality construction of many portable basketball systems, turning your driveway into a basketball court can be as simple as hooking up your garden hose. But while a portable system may ultimately be your best choice, there are reasons you may want to consider an in-ground or wall-mount system before you decide.

In-Ground Systems

In-ground systems are permanently cemented into the ground--either via a bolt mounting kit or directly into the ground--and are generally more rigid and take up less space than portables. In-ground systems often require that you hire a professional to complete the task, but when the cement dries you'll have a hoop that can take punishing dunks with ease.

Many in-ground systems are height-adjustable, include removable post features that let you take the system down for off-season storage, and feature heavy-duty break-away rims. You'll also want to research the adjustable mechanisms on the systems, as there are several types to choose from. Some feature a counter-balance spring that lets you perform easy, one-hand adjustments while others may feature a sturdy, pneumatic system.

Wall-Mount Systems

Wall-mount systems can be mounted to the side of a house, a tall retaining wall, or a garage. Generally sturdier than portables, wall-mounts have the added advantage of optimizing your existing ground space for the court, since you won't take any space up with the base or pole. Not all systems include the necessary hardware, so make certain you add a mounting kit to your list.

Portable Systems

Portable systems require minimal installation and offer ultimate convenience. These systems generally feature a base that can be filled with sand or water to stabilize them and include wheels for portability. Although they are not as sturdy as in-ground or wall-mounted hoops, portables are simple to set up and can often be folded for convenient storage.

Backboard Considerations

Regardless of which system you choose, you'll want to brush up on Backboards 101. Most residential systems feature backboards made of acrylic, fiberglass, graphite, or various other composite materials. While clear acrylic gives the professional look and feel of glass, it is not as rigid as fiberglass or graphite. Some systems may offer steel or aluminum backboards, which are virtually vandal resistant, but don't offer the true rebounding action.

The regulation size of an NBA backboard is 72 inches wide and 42 inches high. Most portable hoops are 42 or 44 inches wide and 36 inches tall. In-ground systems tend to be a bit larger, with 54-inch and 60-inch widths being the most popular. While rectangular shaped backboards provide more bank shot opportunities, they are generally more expensive than the streamlined fan-shaped board.

• 50" Shatterproof Makralon polycarbonate backboard gives you the look and feel of professional glass!
• All-weather resistant, designed to withstand the harshest elements
• Action Grip height adjustment mechanism easily adjusts from 7.5 to 10 feet with one hand
• Solid-steel Slam-It Rim with double-compression springs and welded net hooks is built to take a slam
• Portable base can be filled with water or sand; Backed by a 5-year limited manufacturer warranty

User questions & answers

Question:	is there vedio about how to assemble the lifetime
Answer:	It didn't come with an installation video when I received it but the instructions was easy enough to follow. Make sure you have tools(hammer,wrenches/crescent wrench, screw driver, power drill) to put it all together with 1 more person.
Question:	How many gallons is the base
Answer:	We filled it with approximately 40 gallons of water
Question:	Anyone done any serious research on portable hoops? Lifetime has so many models, any recommendations, confused. $300 range
Answer:	I did a lot of research and read numerous customer reviews on portable hoops before I decided to purchase Lifetime's Model #71566. The main complaint I seemed to note in various reviews regarding the the 71566 was that there was missing hardware and like many other customers, my hoop was also did not have all of the hardware necessary for assembly. However, I contacted customer service who were quite friendly and they promptly sent me the missing hardware I needed to complete assembly of the hoop. Otherwise, I am extremely happy with the purchase and would recommend the product to others which is something I would not do if I were the least bit satisfied. The 71566 was easy to assemble and is a quality item. In addition, if you do a google search you can find the item on sale with many vendors and I believe I was able to purchase the hoop with free shipping for under $300.00.
Question:	Is it possible to move this hoop out of the driveway for winter, or it will be to heavy to wheel around
Answer:	We used these hoops for our summer basketball camp. There is a recommendation for 300-400 lbs. of sand to be put in the base, for stability. We put 200 lbs. of sand in the base and then placed 150lbs. of sand bags on the top of the base. This way the bags can be removed for relocating the basket, and one (at most two) people will be able to tilt and roll the unit to another location. We actually loaded the units on to a trailer and moved them to our storage garage (about one block away).
