CHANGE FROM ABOVE - This video was hugely helpful - it so happens that Spalding has changed one thing that brought our efforts to a screeching halt. The video above shows the attaching of TWO springs in connecting the backboard. The picture of the backboard online shows TWO springs. We only received one. I'll save you the entire story, but after a trip to the hardware store looking for a second and not finding one, my daughter contacted Spalding who told her there had been a change and the unit only used ONE spring now. So if anybody else feels like they might be a spring short... and it really is an excellent video!
If you look closely at the video the springs he uses are smaller than the One spring it comes with now so I figured it was an update to the packaging but thanks for making sure for all of us that it’s one ONE spring.
We would not have been able to finish this hoop without this video. The company should pay this guy money and fire the people who wrote that crappy instruction book. We almost returned this thing. Spaulding should thank this guy!!!
I bought this goal from Academy sports and was very reluctant to do this myself. Guy at store told me it wasn’t worth paying $200 to have a third party do it for me so I used this video and the instruction manual. It was a total feat. I recommend anyone getting this hoop, save this video in your favorites and have it up with the manual. Thank you for taking the time to record this.
I truly want to thank you. Purchased this for my son's Birthday and was extremely frustrated beyond belief by the manual. Your video saved me time, money, and truly helped more than you can possibly imagine. Thank you and may God Bless.
Thanks for sharing this. It was tremendous assistance as my son & I assembled our hoop. We stumbled a bit when we saw that the video had two springs and our hoop only had one. We thought that our package may have been incomplete until we realized that the newer models only use one spring. Great video!
Single mother, whreww Chile, I'm glad I came across this video. Started crying from frustration. Trying to put it together for my 16 year old son for his birthday. Came across your video. So Me n my son Trying to put it together. Directions was killing me, I'm more visual, I got it now, thanks ah million 🤗🥰 Even though your poles and our poles are different, still a 54'goal tho. The installation instructions are not good, even with labeling the parts/screws better. Come on now Spalding! XOXO 2U 4 THIS VIDEO 😘😘😘😘
This video was so helpful. I followed the manual and this video was exact. Except a couple of steps were reverse and the newer one. I did it with little help from anyone and was shocked I could do it. But I would have struggled way more without your video.
Those comments are so true. You are the Best man!! If you haven’t done so, pls reach out to Spaulding because u saved them a lot of customers! Peace out😁
My boyfriend and I could have NEVER assembled this thing without YOUR VIDEO!! Thank you soooo much!! I had paid for Amazon to assemble it, but they cancelled the assembly because of the coronavirus. Thank you!!
I bought a used basketball hoop and it was assembled incorrectly. Thanks for making this video, my hoop is perfectly assembled thanks to you my friend!❤
Just bought this for my son.( And me lol). I was about to pay 140 to have someone come out and assemble it. Havent watched the full video but the comment section has given me the confidence to pt it together myself with the help of this video. Thanks to all the commenters And a special thanks to the uploader of the vid. I hit the like and subscibed.
Thank you man for basically guiding me through the entire build!! The instructions aren’t terrible but I put this entire goal together in 40 min watching your video! Thanks!
Thank you for this! The back half of the manual was a confusing mess. This video saved me so much. I ditched the manual and just watched the video 👌👌👌👌👏👏👏
@@CodyFazio hey cody, after a month or so i see my backboard is slightly tilted towards the right (meaning the right is down from the shooting angle) ... do you know where i could have gone wrong or how to possibly fix it?
Thank you for taking the effort to document this :) It actually helped me when I got stumped on how to assemble the rim (backplate, rod, then spring screwed on with washer and bolt) and the plastic backboard protectors (use ratchet not a flat screw dooh!) Enjoy hoopin!
Nice system overall. I’d recommend going to your local hardware and buying 2 3” fully threaded 3/8 bolts to connect the backboard to the base. What the manufacturer provides can be tricky and difficult.
yes, and there is no washers to hold on the backboard to the hoop so it's very loose. Did you have the same problem? I don't play much basketball but it seems like it could be a problem.
Those 64 down make up for the people who will never be satisfy with anything in life. Excellent Video and great important demonstrations. You hit the confusing part in the manual. I agree with Jim.
Cody you're awesome man. I had my hoop in ny garage for a month dreading this day. Discovered your video and hands-down the best tutorial, not only for basketball, but all tutorials on you tube combined. Although you made it look easy, I was clumsy as a caveman, I wouldn't have been able to complete this without your video. Now my neighbors kid is over and wants to shoot around... and he just told me I had no "UP'S" ...I can't wait till he drives towards the hoop where he'll get the hack of his life! Thanks again man!
Thank you so much for putting this video together - other than the 2 springs vs 1 spring comment - was perfect to follow and made it a cinch to put together !!
Saved my butt, these instructions are pretty crap that come in the box, the newer models seem to only have 1 sprint now FYI. The net that comes in box is pretty much garbage $10-$15 bucks on a thick one on a amazon. I would highly recommend having a helping hand on this one, I did about 90% myself but needed help on a few parts.
Thanks.. It isn't rocket science but you expedited it! And, when you have two or three "adults" interjecting... LOL... I pulled up your video and said, "stop arguing.... " haha... Again, thanks! Much appreciated
Spalding should pay you for this!!!!....the instructions they sent were ok but I got stuck early on and I came to youtube and found you. This video really made my day. Just got done with mine. It didn't go as smooth as yours 😂. Not your fault though. The backboard part was hard for me to line up plus I did it all by myself. But thanks so much for the video.
Great vid buddy... will tackle setup later this week to get it ready for the kids this weekend. Hope the hoop is not responsible for the battle scar. Thank you sir! From a french Canadian who only has a few month to enjoy basketball outside...!
Great video!!! I bought one of these hoops a few years ago but could never finish it. I'm going to buy another one but wanted to make sure I could find something better than that instruction booklet.
Hello Cody. Idk why but my elevator assembly looks different from yours and that is the part I’m really stuck on. Did un assemble the handle for it? Because I don’t think I have that silver piece to put on the pole. The instructions manual makes it so unbelievably hard and confusing. Thanks
Thanks for the video. I am having trouble screw the strut into the base. Any tips how to do this? I'm thinking to release the top bolt first and work on the base to secure the strut into the base loosely before attaching the top section.
Just finished. I hooked the springs to the wrong screw. And I was missing a spring What do the springs do? It seems to be working fine do I need to go back and change it?
A huge thanks for putting this together, honestly the booklet is not that great your video clarified a lot of the key points. It's also important to be two adults to do this safely. My twelve year old son helped me out but the backboard connection was really challenging. For some reason the main pole pieces that I got were rather difficult to insert to the right depth of 3,5 inches. I ended up destroying two stout pieces of lumber but ultimately it was the use of a mallet and some wd40 that allowed the final 1/4 inch of insertion. As someone already mentioned, Spalding should offer you royalties or have you direct a corporate video for their website. Thank you again
Repent now and trust Jesus Christ our Lord and savior please ❤️ God bless your family and you
God bless
Amen God bless too 🙏🏽😊

Tony Bittick the instruction manual also has two springs listed in the parts list. Thanks for the comment this really helps.
Good thing I read your comment before I got to that part of the install - thanks a bunch!
Does the unit come with the tools needed??

This was the best "how to assembly" video for this particular kit. Thank you for sharing.
Great video I just put up my son’s basketball ram me and my girlfriend with your video and step-by-step instructions. Thanks.
the video is outstanding, no sense talking and commenting, right on point no waste of time. Complete professional!
Thank you for taking the time to comment
Took me 4 hours did it by myself
My kid is happy SPALDING should pay you boss step by step tutorial thanks again 🙏🏼
Awesome , my husband followed your entire video and got the hoop set up for our kids! Great job!! 👍👏
Thanks for sharing, I bought my kids this from Academy Sports for Christmas and just now getting around to assembling it.

Thank you for this video. I’ve put this off for 1.5 years waiting for concrete on my side driveway and I think I’ll tackle it today.
Double thumbs….because of your “extremely helpful vid” My son and I set ours up in record time. Thanks again !

Thank you for the video! I just put a Spalding together for my son’s birthday. Your video was a lifesaver!
Brother I'm bout to put mine together. Can't thank you enough for this.
with your help it took 6 hrs, without probably more than 24 hrs! they should make this simple. thanks cody!! appreciate it man!
No problem, glad it helped
@@CodyFazio hey cody, after a month or so i see my backboard is slightly tilted towards the right (meaning the right is down from the shooting angle) ... do you know where i could have gone wrong or how to possibly fix it?
@@ncraghav15 go up on a ladder on the back side and examine where the board attaches to the pole
EVERY how-to vid should be in this format. 100% need to know, 0 pork. It took me 13 minutes to assemble mine, you beat me
When I use RUclips to find out how to do something, the last thing I want to hear is unnecessary chatter and filler
I love how you did it in under 12 minutes everybody else was talking about a day and a half almost
You have no idea how much this video helped me out. The instructions with the goal are damn near worthless. Thank you!!
Thank you for taking the effort to document this :)
It actually helped me when I got stumped on how to assemble the rim (backplate, rod, then spring screwed on with washer and bolt) and the plastic backboard protectors (use ratchet not a flat screw dooh!)

hey i just want to say thank you so much for this video, never would've even attempted to do this myself if i didn't see this video before buying!
Omg I love this guy. The other video skips the hardest most important part.
Thank you so much for putting this video together - other than the 2 springs vs 1 spring comment - was perfect to follow and made it a cinch to put together !!
I’m getting my basketball hoop tomorrow thank you for saving my time now I can build this faster
Thank you so much. Without this video I would had been lost

The instructions were hard for me to understand idk I pulled this video up & finished it quick thanks a lot
You're welcome, thanks for watching
How long it take you
Im the silly guy who comes to this video after I install it to see what I did wrong. Thank you for this video
Thank you for this video you made it so much easier for me than just following the manual by itself.
This video just saved me from hrs of putting this hoop together thanks!
How long did it take u. Bohht.mine yesterday and am dreading this weekend but the comments are giving me hope.
VERY WELL DONE CODY!!! Great video! We just got one this Christmas looked to you to help us put it together! Thanks for this!
This was a HUGE help. What a lifesaver! Couldn’t have done it without this video.
Thank you for this. I was able to put the rim back on after it came loose and fell off because of this video.
Thanks.. It isn't rocket science but you expedited it! And, when you have two or three "adults" interjecting... LOL... I pulled up your video and said, "stop arguing.... " haha... Again, thanks! Much appreciated
THANK YOU soooo much for this video! We would have never been able to finish it with the booklet!
Great Video! I think this is the best one. Well filmed and edited. Thank You!
Thanks, much appreciated
Kids will always love this hoop!
Thanks for the video your a life saver 🙌
great video ! helped me way more than the manual lol idk why i didn’t just come to this first. went from 5 hours with a manual to 1 hr with this !

Great video! Thank you for the guidance. I got for my son for his birthday and he loves it!
1000 thanks. If don’t watch this video, I really don’t know how to install this
Great video!!! I bought one of these hoops a few years ago but could never finish it. I'm going to buy another one but wanted to make sure I could find something better than that instruction booklet.
This guy is a best it took me my brother and my uncle to make this thing and it took 3 days
Better video than Spaulding..
Good work mate..
Thanks..
Thank you so much for putting this together. This video helped me assemble the same hoop I purchased for my son.

Great video, that's how tutorials or this type of product should be!
Thanks for the video. This is a lot easier than reading the instructions. 👍😉
Thanks! I’m reasonably handy but this helped a lot.
Got the hoop, paid for assembly and a lot of flaws (the crew was rushin' the job😠). Fixing them now😬
while watching this. Thanx for the video!!
Even though I have a different model I just needed a little hint on the rim. Great video
Thanks so much I did it all by myself thanks to you i was so confused
Thank you so much for sharing this. Super helpful and made the assembly much easier 🎉
We gotta stand the backboard up to get that 1st screw!!! Omg, my sons and I have been struggling, thank you!
Thank you so much for saving me time and making this a easy family project.
You're welcome, thanks for taking the time to comment
Thank You,
I'm a single mom trying to go @t this thing by myself for my son. I really appreciate this video:)
Thank you so much, you made this way easier for me. The directions provided were hard to understand.
Thanks for the video lost the instructions on mines 🤙🏾
Great vid to familiarize yourself before getting started. Very well produced. 👍
Thanks
Cody, thanks for your video. It has really been a blessing.

Thank you, best tutorial video on youtube!!!
Thanks man you really help me build this in no time 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Absolutely best tutorial!!! Thank you very much sir.
Just finished. I hooked the springs to the wrong screw. And I was missing a spring
What do the springs do? It seems to be working fine do I need to go back and change it?
Referring to 8:20 or so
i’m missing a spring too, i was setting mine up today. how is yours working with just one spring?
Does it work with one spring? Im missing one too
El Chino yeah it works jus fine
How long does it take to stretch the spring out
