A: Absolutely, my 13 year old son and his friends love this hoop
A: Yes, we play on it twice a week and I also dunk on it with no problem
A: Yes!! This has far surpassed my expectations for the price!
A: My son is not tall enough to dunk, but i'm sure it's good enough to do it, and def to shoot! We love it
A: No, backboard broke from 12 yo shooting at it.
A: I picked it up from Target and put it in the back of my Toyota Highlander with the seats down. It fit just fine.
A: 54.0 inches length x 36.0 inches width x 12.0 inches height
A: Its about 1-2 inches bigger than 54.0 inches length x 36.0 inches width x 12.0 inches height. It fits a 15 mazda 3 hatch just fine.
A: I put mine in a Chrysler 300. I bought some bongie cords from target to the the trunk down. Also I had to let my back seats down from the trunk.
A: I had to get this delivered...... the box was huge and heavy, unless you have a pick up truck i think it will be impossible
A: Four hours with two adults.

A: 2 ratchet with the socket size mentioned above and I recommend a power tool for the last step in tapping the screws in for the board guard.
A: You can do dunk like activities, but we recommend no excessive hanging on the rim.
A: I doubt a 5' tall kid could dunk on a 7.5' rim.
A: Please contact our Customer Service team at 1-800-558-5234 or via email (spaldingcustomerservice@custserv.fotlinc.com) for additional assistance.
A: Get a sawhorse or two, lay the pole on the sawhorses and flip the base on end (vertically) to then screw into the pole. Much easier.
A: Yes. It does have a breakaway/spring that allows the hoop to "breakaway" or flex when you dunk.
A: No, it doesn't have a breakaway.
