I got my kids this Goaliath Basketball Hoop for Christmas last year and am just now finally getting to install it. I have not installed a basketball hoop before, but I was not worried about the task. A good amount of manual labor is always good! I hope you enjoy Part 1, installing the anchor system!
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 🏀
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 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.
So definitely need the 16” form?
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!
Agreed, way too close to the edge. Should have read the instructions before he started this project, and once he did, he should have followed the instructions and done a 16" diameter hole.
I just did this from a different video. I looked up videos to see how many bags they used cause I only needed 5.
Now being that you guys say it will snap at the anchor…you guys suggest I dig around it…? 6” deep maybe? And fill it with concrete. One guy said you need like 11 bags so I got 6 left. I can use 1-2 and reinforce it…good idea?
That was my immediate thought as well. This is a bad DIY video.
I thought that also…plus the concrete looked a little dry and moving the plate around can cause sloppy holes if it was.
Digger a hole in sandals bold move
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!
Climbing a ladder does not require boots
LoL
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
+Pogi Verdugo agreed, I just thought my kids to make sure to leave the ball go if it goes into the street
GeekSmart depending the age and discipline of the kids, that may or may not be a good plan.
My goaliath did not come with the Mount brackets for the pole.

How many bags of concrete did you use man
he used 8 but he said 9 would've been better
@@ronseybones wow that many. No kidding just seems like alot
Eric Knowles I thought the same thing
Depends on how many pounds is bag. 40/60/80
I used about 5 80# bags of high strength. I’m actually gonna dig around it and add 1-2’ of extra cement to support it since I went w a 12” form
They've worn concrete in the middle east while doing construction for Millenniums!
How is the concrete holding up. Had any problems?
All the traffic in the background, this is a dangerous place for goal
Do you know the measurement from the center of the mounting pole to the backboard?
Where the hell r the nylon washers my kit doesn’t have #34 skips that number but need them so it doesn’t rust
Need to get a net to prevent the ball from going into the street.
Great video! Thanks for posting!
+ThisIsaNightmare no problem
Will rain affect the 72 hours molding process? Does it need to be covered up?
As long as the concrete is hard, rain may actually slow the curing process. I would want at least 12 hours cured before rain started, then it wouldn’t have a large effect. If you second guess it, let it sit another day.
concrete can be fully submerged in water and still cure 100% fine, infact you should keep young concrete wet for up to a week to prevent cracking caused by repeated moistning and drying.
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.
Please explain in English.
Yes. English please
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
Is the hoop still up?
nice video
What if quikcrete is used? Will that speed up the curing process? Can I install the goal sooner?
You crazy
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.
Round or square 450 lbs anchor won’t move lol I have done goals for 14 yrs
@@luisrasgado9160 she's crazy. I get it but people like her will freak out about any and everything.
Thank you Luis
Let your husband know when he goes outside to do this while you sit on the couch and watch TV.
What size sonotube
would u consider the goalrilla hoop or the goaliath
+Dayaan Sheikh I would prefer the Goalrilla, but the Goaliath is great for occasional use like my family does
GeekSmart what is the lowest ur hoop can go?
Dayaan Sheikh mega slam
Garnet pretty expensive
That is not the way the manufacturers tell you to do it.
Ok
@@GeekSmart Ok
LoL
Thank th e Lord
Quien saber el precio

Shouldn’t have used that small of a tube
How deep is the hole 🕳?
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.
Yeah, I have since gotten better microphones so newer videos should be better
Real Men NEVER wear flip flops!!!!!
Ok tough guy
A-fucking-men.
