Perforated Aluminum Backboard - Super Goal","description":"\u003ch2\u003eJaypro Sports 656-ALP-SG Gooseneck Basketball System with Perforated Aluminum Backboard\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEquipping public parks, schoolyards, and community centers with reliable athletic equipment requires a balance of structural integrity and player safety. The Jaypro Sports 656-ALP-SG Gooseneck Basketball System is engineered specifically for these high-use outdoor environments. At its core is a massive 5-9\/16 inch diameter Schedule 40 steel pole, which provides a rigid foundation capable of withstanding aggressive play and harsh weather conditions. The gooseneck design offers a 71-inch offset, creating a significant \"Play Safe\" area under the rim to reduce the risk of player contact with the post during layups or rebounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe system features a 72-inch by 42-inch perforated aluminum backboard. This design choice is intentional; the perforations allow wind to pass through the board, reducing the structural strain on the unit during storms while maintaining a consistent ball response. For added stability, the backboard is supported by two 1-5\/16 inch diameter steel braces. Paired with the heavy-duty Super Goal, this setup ensures long-term performance without the maintenance headaches often associated with glass or acrylic in unsupervised areas. The entire unit is secured via an in-ground mount that buries 48 inches deep, providing a permanent, wobble-free installation for any recreational facility.\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 with galvanized finish\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 generous \"Play Safe\" area under the basket\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInstallation: In-ground mount requiring a 48-inch burial depth for maximum stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHardware: Includes Super Goal (GBSG-50) and two 1-5\/16\" diameter steel backboard braces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDurability: Shipping weight of 421 lbs with 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":48778487136483,"sku":"656-ALP-SG","price":4505.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/8370\/6339\/files\/656-alp-sg-24-875x875x72-white-01.jpg?v=1779302265","url":"https:\/\/joysportstore.com\/products\/jaypro-basketball-system-gooseneck-5-9-16-in-pole-with-6-ft-offset-72-in-perforated-aluminum-backboard-super-goal","provider":"JoySportStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
