Product Overview
The First Team Tempest Triumph Portable Basketball System is constructed with heavy gauge 2”x 5” rectangular tubing for its vertical uprights and a 4”x 4” square tubing main extension boom with ½” thick steel reinforcement, providing a 96” backboard-to-base extension. Its all-steel base, primarily 3” x 1 ½” rectangular steel tubing, measures 48” across the front (52” with side pads installed) and is designed for one-person portability on four large 8” non-marking wheels. The ballast box is designed to accept (24) 4”x 8”x 16” cement blocks (720 lbs. total) and includes an additional 300# of pre-welded steel ballast.
This system features a Spring-Assist mechanism for easy height adjustment, allowing the rim to be set in six-inch increments from regulation 10’ down to 6’ via a removable adjustment pin. The backboard, Model FT235, is made of 1/2” thick tempered glass with bright white fire impregnated ceramic screening, framed by clear anodized aluminum extrusions, and measures approximately 72” wide and 42” high. The Model FT196 rim is a flexible “FULL-TILT” design with an official 5/8” diameter ring and 18” I.D. opening, finished with an orange powder coat, and includes a heavy-duty nylon net.
The entire unit is protected by a white powdercoat finish. It comes equipped with standard 2” thick foam padding (1 ½” for side and ballast box pads) mounted on 7/16” wafer board, covered with a 14 oz reinforced vinyl laminate, and secured by 2” velcro attachment straps. The complete system playing weight is approximately 2000# and is covered by a Lifetime Superior Warranty.
