This was a great, helpful video. Thanks for posting.

Hey, GeekSmart, Thanks for posting this video. I learned some good things from you and from the comments. Even the comments which were a bit know-it-all-ish were helpful. And I wouldn't have gotten to read them if you hadn't made yourself vulnerable and posted your work. So thanks!

Great video. I got the same hoop y'all installed and I gotta say you got some dedication! It's a rough hoop to put it up but it's worth it in the end 🏀

Digger a hole in sandals bold move

Great video! Thanks for posting!

Great video until the end. The hold down bolts are too close to the edge of the "round form". You need 4" all around the bolts at a minimum. I guarantee the concrete blew out in these areas.

How is the concrete holding up. Had any problems?

I love basketball and I would love to do this for my kids but that road seems pretty busy.. I was always raised on a culdesac so this might be normal. I just feel anxious for the kids protection

Do you know the measurement from the center of the mounting pole to the backboard?

My goaliath did not come with the Mount brackets for the pole.

What size sonotube

How many bags of concrete did you use man

Will rain affect the 72 hours molding process? Does it need to be covered up?

They've worn concrete in the middle east while doing construction for Millenniums!

nice video

Is the hoop still up?

I certainly would not do it this way. Just take some 2 x 4's and make a frame for the footing. The anchor bolts are way way too close to the outside edge!

As an "old" contractor, I recommend a good pair of leather work boots! Composite hard toe, water and slip resistant. I personally like electrical and puncture resistant as well....but that's because of my work. But NEVER work in sandals! Boots offer safety and anyone who does this type of work for a living knows you occasionally drop things on your toe....also climbing a ladder requires boots!

would u consider the goalrilla hoop or the goaliath

All the traffic in the background, this is a dangerous place for goal

Where the hell r the nylon washers my kit doesn’t have #34 skips that number but need them so it doesn’t rust

I bought one used for 400.oo but I didn't get the plate bolts how much are they I got to hire someone cause if u don't set right it will make the goal of center and sang plus I've got the 60 inch back board and we get bad weather coming out of the West if it's not set right I'd screw it up

How deep is the hole 🕳?

Dropping the reinforcement so low is not good. Now you have nothing to transmit pull out forces from the bolts down to the foundation. You need bar high enough to engage the anchor bolt pull out cones to avoid snapping off the top of foundation. That backboard hanging up there is creating a lot of overturning force.

What if quikcrete is used? Will that speed up the curing process? Can I install the goal sooner?

That is not the way the manufacturers tell you to do it.

The hole should have been dug square, to stop the ring rotating. Also not enough gap between bolts and edge of concrete. You really should follow the manufacturers recommendations, as its your kids safety at stake here. Do not follow what he's done people.

It took you almost a year to put up a court. Wow dude. lol.

Nice video... a bit of a mumbler though... had to keep rewinding to see what the heck he just said.
