Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I purchased this pole with the 79307 backboard, since Amazon shows them frequently purchased together. Problem is, the backboard hardware is not meant to fit this pole. I had to modify a couple of pieces to make it fit. But, looks nice and works nicely when done. Regarding the pole itself, this is a lot of work. When you are "bouncing" the pole pieces together, be sure to do it on a solid foundation, like a board over concrete or over a gravel driveway. Don't do it on a board on the grass or you will pound away all day and not get them together (yes, I did this for awhile...). Once it is together and filled with concrete, I was able to put it in the hole alone, but barely. Two people are definitely recommended. Looks great now, but with one major problem: it only adjusts to 9'9" high. I have no idea what happened to the missing 3" because I followed the directions to a T, but there you have it. Good luck, and make sure you get a backboard that is meant to fit this thing! Amazon, you shouldn't recommend that buyers buy two parts that aren't meant to go together!
