Corrosion, Rust – Not a Problem: New feature Alert!

Wednesday, January 2nd, 2008

We are always trying to improve our basketball equipment.  In recent history we have improved the Pro Dunk basketball goal with the following features.

  • Increased glass thickness to a full ½ inch
  • Preassembled the backboard (padding, H-bracket)
  • Replaced regular steel fasteners with stainless steel fasteners
  • Extended the warranty to a lifetime

We are not stopping there!  We will be galvanizing the whole system (shipping mid-spring).  This will effectively eliminate any corrosion of the system’s steel and ensure the goal will never weaken and always remain looking great.

The galvanization (learn about galvanizing), durable powder coat (read about powder coating), stainless steel fasteners (compare stainless bolts to regular steel bolts), and solid aluminum backboard frame truly make this one of the most resilient basketball goals available.

Reorganizing Pro Dunk Basketball System Details

Wednesday, January 2nd, 2008

Over the past year and a half we have been constantly trying to improve the Pro Dunk Hoops website by providing as much information as possible to you about the Pro Dunk basketball systems.  In doing so, we found ourselves with a huge amount of detail on each system.  In an attempt to make the information more manageable for our users we have reorganized these pages into 6 convenient sections under the “Details” section on each product page.

Durability
In this section, we talk about the outstanding heavy-duty materials and quality construction used to make Pro Dunk basketball systems.  We hope you come away from this section agreeing with us that the Pro Dunk basketball goal is one of the most durable long-lasting systems available.  Sub headers include lifetime warranty, backboard rigidity, and stainless steel fasteners.

Performance
Every Pro Dunk basketball system is made to exceed the most demanding basketball enthusiast’s expectations.  This section will talk about the responsive backboard, extension arm placement and the thick main poles on the Pro Dunk basketball system.

Design
While every high performance Pro Dunk basketball hoop is rugged we also make it beautiful.  This section talks about the elegant design, lack of tacky logos, and the way it blends into residential settings with its clear backboard and black finish.

Flexibility
You will read about how easily the Pro Dunk system can be adjusted and how semi-portability lets you take the basketball goal to a new house when you move.

Installation
Pro Dunk basketball systems are renowned for their easy assembly.  This section will talk about specific features that allow for easy, accurate installation and mention resources to help with installation.

Safety
Young and demanding players use Pro Dunk basketball systems every day.  Safety is a high priority on our list.  This section will talk about the included padding set, safe overhang distance and how Pro Dunk basketball goals keep children within the safety of your own home.
