Product Description

GARED Pro S Spring-Lift Portable Basketball System (Model 9618)

Overview

The GARED Pro S is a high-performance, non-electric portable basketball backstop designed for collegiate, professional and international competition. It uses a concealed tension spring lift for smooth, maintenance-free raising and lowering, a heavy-duty T-shape boom for clear sightlines, and an official-size shatterproof glass backboard for consistent play. Available with an 8' or 10'?8" boom and adjustable to 8', 9' and 10' rim heights.

Benefits

  • Easy, safe setup and breakdown — the concealed tension-spring lift reduces effort and removes the need for power, saving staff time and lowering setup complexity.
  • Cleaner court sightlines — the T-shape boom and heavy uprights eliminate bridge supports so fans and cameras have unobstructed views.
  • Competition-ready performance — meets major governing body specifications so you can host high-level games without extra equipment changes.
  • Durable, low-maintenance design — heavy-duty materials and a protected spring mechanism reduce downtime and long-term service needs.
  • Professional branding opportunity — vinyl-covered base padding can be customized for team or sponsor graphics to enhance venue presentation.
  • Compact storage and easy transport — folds for storage and rolls on non-marking polyurethane casters, simplifying floor logistics between events.
