The First Team Tempest Triumph-FL Portable Basketball System is built with heavy-gauge steel, including two 2”x 5” rectangular vertical uprights and a 4”x 4” square extension boom with ½” thick steel reinforcement, providing a 66” backboard-to-base extension. The all-steel base measures 48” across the front (52” with side pads) and is fortified with a ballast box designed for 720 lbs. of cement blocks plus 300# of pre-welded steel, contributing to an approximate system playing weight of 2000#. Mobility is facilitated by four large 8” non-marking wheels, while 8” diameter retractable foot pads provide stability during play.

The system features a Model FT235 backboard, constructed from 1/2” thick tempered glass with ceramic screening and an anodized aluminum frame, measuring approximately 72” wide and 42” high. Paired with this is the flexible “FULL-TILT” Model FT196 rim, an institutional quality 5/8” diameter ring with an 18” I.D. opening, finished in orange powder coat and designed to withstand dunking. Height adjustment is handled by a Spring-Assist system, enabling one-person operation to set the rim from 10’ down to 6’ in six-inch increments. The unit is padded with 2” thick foam, including 1 ½” for side and ballast box pads, and the entire unit is finished with a white powdercoat and backed by a Lifetime Superior Warranty.
