The Jaypro Sports 656-ALP-UB Gooseneck Basketball System is engineered specifically for these demanding outdoor environments. At the core of this unit is a massive 5-9\/16 inch diameter Schedule 40 steel pole, which provides a rock-solid foundation for competitive play. The gooseneck design creates a 71-inch \"Play Safe\" offset, positioning the backboard far enough from the upright to protect players during aggressive drives to the hoop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe system features a 72-inch by 42-inch rectangular backboard crafted from perforated aluminum. This design choice is intentional; the perforations allow wind to pass through the board, reducing strain on the mounting hardware during storms while maintaining a consistent rebound surface. To ensure long-term structural integrity, the backboard is supported by two 1-5\/16 inch diameter steel braces. Paired with the UBG-500F Playground Breakaway Goal, this setup offers the flexibility needed to absorb impact without compromising the board. The entire unit is designed for permanent installation, burying 48 inches into the ground to ensure it remains a fixture of your facility for years. With a galvanized finish and a 3-year limited warranty, this system is a reliable choice for any high-traffic recreational space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs at a Glance:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePole: 5-9\/16\" diameter Schedule 40 steel gooseneck upright\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBackboard: 72\" x 42\" rectangular perforated aluminum (AL-PERF) for wind resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSafety Offset: 71-inch extension provides a dedicated \"Play Safe\" area away from the post\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGoal: UBG-500F Playground Breakaway Goal designed for heavy recreational use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInstallation: In-ground mount requiring a 48-inch burial depth for maximum stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupport: Includes two 1-5\/16\" diameter steel braces for added backboard rigidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLogistics: Total shipping weight of 434 lbs; includes a 3-year limited warranty on post, board, and goal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Jaypro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48778500866275,"sku":"656-ALP-UB","price":4789.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/8370\/6339\/files\/656-alp-ub-24-875x875x72-white-01.jpg?v=1779302262","url":"https:\/\/joysportstore.com\/products\/jaypro-basketball-system-gooseneck-5-9-16-in-pole-with-6-ft-offset-72-in-perforated-aluminum-backboard-playground-breakaway-goal","provider":"JoySportStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
