Sweet court! I’m having a 25’x 25’ pad poured in the spring. Having a tough time deciding between 60 and 72 backboard. Would you have still gone with the 72 with a 25’ court?
hell yeah that looks nice think i might have to get me one now and IM a huge fan of not having to mow as much thanks to the concrete pad lol less time cutting grass and more time cutting on the court
We get our Megaslam XL installed (well started) tomorrow! We are all really excited about it. My court which is 31' from the hoop, seems small for a hoop like this but really the 72 model is as big as the XL is only a little bigger with the pole and an extra foot of overhang. I figured just get the best when it's so close in price.
Holding up really well Demarcus. This year I will probably split the tiles up in 3 equal pieces and remove to clean the patio underneath. The court itself is holing up really well. I figured by know the painted lines may show some wear, but still looks good as new.
Great video btw. How does it hold up in winter with snow, ice, freezing weather? And did it add value to your home? debating if i should use tile vrs just concrete in the city of Chicago
Thank you! No issues over winter. Snow and Ice simply melts /drains through the court tiles. Still looks brand new. Not sure how much value it add's as its hard to quantify that but I'm sure it would for the right buyer. In my opinion its better on the knees and offers better grip vs. concrete.
I am a sports floor saller. This kind of floor can be used in the hot Middle East and the cold northern Europe. There are drainage holes on the surface, so there is no need to worry about water accumulation. Maybe it will protect your knees when playing basketball, especially since some floors have shock absorbing pads.
Thanks! Court Tiles $4500, Hoop $2200. Patio/sublayer/surrounding aesthetics all depends on your preference. My yard is on a slope so we had to add additional soil, build an 18" concrete footing at the end and went with a 5" slab. Once completed, additional soil was added to grade the ground around the court and finish it with sod. Concrete cost was $10k, Sod/soil $2k.
Where did you get the net that goes behind the back board? I’m trying to find something that will prevent the ball from going into my neighbor behind me.
Ordered directly from Mega Slam. The net is designed for their system and pretty easy to take down over the winter. This winter I kept it on and it still looks good as new.

Thanks Tom! No issues at all. Still looks brand new and no need to cover it before the winter. Snow/Ice melts through the court tile and drains away. The material is designed to handle our weather.
I am a sports floor salesperson. This floor can withstand low temperatures around -60°C and has drainage holes on the surface that do not need to be covered before snow falls.

I got a few quotes from concrete suppliers around the area and went with who I felt comfortable with and seemed knowledgeable based on the grade of the ground.

They stay in place for me. No movement. If the court was smaller I can see them moving a bit but I believe they sell a product to drill down one side to prevent the tiles from moving.
How is the hoop holding up? Any regrets? I’m getting ready to pull the trigger on the mega slam or the goalrilla. Did you look into the goalrilla at all? Thanks
Still looks great. No regrets. I did look at Goalrilla and felt like the quality with Megaslam was a bit better. I also asked a few local installers who deal with both brands and they recommended Megaslam.

They do shrink and expand about 1" based on weather. Not noticeable. Haven't had my court shift. I can see it being an issue on a smaller court though. Some people do bolt down a single side so it doesn't move around.

Traction is great. Just can't go out there and look for traction after rain or if the grass is still wet. If working on stationary shots, it's great after rain as the water flows through the tile.

Awesome video! I just built my concrete slab for my basketball court. You can watch the video here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-k8Yh184oZBw.html

Thanks! No issues in the rain, but I wouldn't go out there immediately after a rainfall as it can be slippery. The kids still go out there and if you're just shooting around it's fine. Dries up quick as the water just beads through the tile.
