00:14 to 00:19 - Welcome basketball fans. This is Mr. Basketball coming to you from the Pro Dunk Hoops studio
00:19 to 00:22 - to answer your questions. Today we’re going to be talking about the features you need
00:22 to 00:26 - to look for in an outdoor basketball goal to make sure that it’s going to hold up
00:26 to 00:31 - in a corrosive environment. Everybody knows about rust. It eats through just about anything
00:31 to 00:35 - and it looks terrible too. So, to talk a little more about this we’ve brought in Mr. Keith
00:35 to 00:39 - Tate who’s the owner and founder of Pro Dunk Hoops. He’s going to be discussing
00:39 to 00:45 - what he’s learned in his 26 years of experience in designing, manufacturing and even servicing
00:45 to 00:49 - these outdoor basketball goals. I’ve got some great questions for him so let’s get
00:49 to 00:49 - started.
:00 to :00 - Thanks for having me Ryan. I’ve got some
:00 to :00 - go ahead and jump right in here. OK. OK. The
:00 to :00 - that I need to look for in my outdoor basketball
:00 to :00 - in corrosive environments? Well Ryan I brought
:00 to :00 - pole of one of our Pro Dunk systems. And it
:00 to :00 - it starts out in the factory. Then it’s
:00 to :00 - finish on top for a double layer of protection.
:00 to :00 - galvanization layer. That seems pretty unique.
:00 to :00 - except Pro Dunk Hoops. In the factory we actually
:00 to :00 - and then we put on a powder coat finish on
:00 to :00 - that sounds great. What else can I look for
:00 to :00 - if you live in a corrosive environment I really
:00 to :00 - And that’s ever bot nut washer and lock
:00 to :00 - some of those for us to look at today didn’t
:00 to :00 - the large stainless steel bolts we use on
:00 to :00 - is stainless steel and the bolt and it easily
:00 to :00 - something for us to compare that to? I sure
:00 to :00 - off some competitor’s systems that we were
:00 to :00 - Dunk system in and you can see how rusted
:00 to :00 - the side of the pole and stain it on the side
:00 to :00 - remove the bolts if you were going to remove
:00 to :00 - so badly on the threads like you see here
:00 to :00 - those two things sound great but lets say
:00 to :00 - do I really need all this? If you live in
:00 to :00 - I would not recommend the Rust Armor option
:00 to :00 - coat finish that comes standard on your system
:00 to :00 - adequate for those climates. In what cases
:00 to :00 - this rust corrosion protection? If you live
:00 to :00 - that you receive over 30 inches of rain a
:00 to :00 - If you have sprinkler systems in your yard
:00 to :00 - another good reason to get it. Even if you
:00 to :00 - say between five, ten miles of the coast I
:00 to :00 - Armor option because you can really benefit
:00 to :00 - So, I guess that’s why you break it out
:00 to :00 - don’t. That’s right. We offer it both
:00 to :00 - no reason to pay for it. If you do, it’s
:00 to :00 - That’s great. So, what does Pro Dunk Hoops
:00 to :00 - I would assume that you do both of these processes.
:00 to :00 - when your ordering one of our systems you
:00 to :00 - is fully galvanized, then powder coated and
:00 to :00 - is upgraded to stainless steel. And that all
:00 to :00 - so that if you ever have any damage by rust
:00 to :00 - that’s a great warranty and great guarantee.
:00 to :00 - great solution to help protect your basketball
:00 to :00 - for coming in today. also, I want to thank
:00 to :00 - remember, better basketball goals, better
:00 to :00 -
