Product Overview
The First Team WallMonster Excel is a wall-mounted basketball system featuring all-welded ¼" thick steel construction secured to three Dense Southern Yellow Pine wallboards (2"x 8" each, routed and sealed) with two 45-degree turnbuckle supports. The mounting structure provides a sturdy foundation for the entire adjustable system.
The extension arms are constructed from dual 2"x 2" tubing with a built-in height adjustment crank cylinder and four springs to ease manual height adjustment. The rim mounts directly through the backboard to the extension arm, reducing backboard stress. Height is infinitely adjustable from 10' down to 7½' with optional 48" or 36" offset installations, with a removable crank handle and easy-to-read height label.
The 42"x 72" rectangular steel backboard features 11-gauge steel skin with ¼" thick vertical struts and white powder coat finish with an official orange shooters square. The rim is constructed of welded 3/16" backplates and side plates in 5/8" diameter high-strength steel (welded at minimum six places, powder-coated orange), with a continuous net-locking system accommodating nylon or chain nets (nylon included). The structure, backboard, and standard rim carry a Lifetime Limited Warranty, and the system weighs approximately 475 pounds.
