New Line of Glass Backboards - Lifetime Basketball Hoops

Lifetime Products Basketball theory Overview

Lifetime Products has a series of basketball systems for assorted ages and skill levels. Traditionally, Lifetime Products reached a large audience of home basketball players by providing an affordable theory that many ages could play on. This was closed straight through the building of light-weight backboards and small steel poles to sustain the backboard. Topping this off with a height-adjustment mechanism to allow younger players to play, Lifetime had the beginnings of a great enterprise model. From there, Lifetime at last ventured into the transported basketball hoop arena and finally the high-end home basketball hoop arena with their astronomical Basketball Hoop line. The price jump between Lifetime's original home basketball court line and the astronomical basketball line is significant, sometimes as much as 1,200.00. between these two lines, Lifetime also had a great disparity of features like glass backboards, larger boards, large poles, and good In-Ground mounting mechanisms. Recently, Lifetime has attempted to fill in the gap between their original line and their astronomical line.

New Lifetime In-Ground Basketball Systems

Lifetime has recently put out 2 new models, the 90013 and the 90062. Both of these systems have a glass backboard, like their astronomical counterparts. The 90013 has a 60-inch backboard, while the 90062 has a 54-inch backboard. The 90013 even goes so far as to use a bolt-down anchoring theory to mount the basketball hoop to the ground. The 90062 kept the original cement-in-ground-pole approach. Both systems are a step above the original Lifetime line.

Previous to the 90013 and 90062 models, the only Lifetime basketball hoop you could purchase with everywhere near the same specs was the 90014, which is also a 54-inch glass theory comparable to the 90013. The main difference between the 90014 and 90062 is that 90014 has the original Power Lift height adjuster, whereas the 90062 features a new Pump Adjust mechanism for raising and lowering the hoop. The 90013 differs from the 90062 by going back to the Power Lift height adjuster, but also has a larger backboard, a 1-piece pole, and a bolt-down anchor system. And finally, the 90013 differs from the astronomical line by having a smaller pole - a 4x4 whereas the astronomical basketball line has either a 5x5 or a 6x6 - and a dissimilar height adjuster. The astronomical basketball line uses a device called the Rapid Cam adjuster. This adjuster is essentially a stronger version of the Power Lift to help compensate for the heavier backboard on the astronomical line.

A break down of who needs which basketball hoop outdoor system

The 90013 and 90062 are perfect for those who want higher-end hoops, but do not have the allocation for the astronomical basketball line, or comparable lines from other manufacturers. The 90013 in particular provides an approximately regulation-sized backboard for about 200-400 dollars economy than comparable high-end system. If person only wanted a simple theory for users to play casually, neither the astronomical line or the middle line, the 90013 and 90062, report cheap options. With these you would likely be using a cannon to kill a mosquito. In this case you would be best off going with a original Lifetime basketball theory that typically start at around 150.00.
