The TEMPEST competition style
portable basketball goal is designed for
fieldhouse, gymnasium and upper-end
recreational or church use, where there isn't quite enough room for the longer extension Hurricane.
The Tempest’s massive extension arm
features an upper and lower boom
support which is the same design used on the longer extension boom found on the Hurricane. The extension distance from
base to backboard on the Tempest is 66” requiring less OB space. The unit
comes equipped with First Team’s top
of the line FT235 Unbreakable 42”x72”
competition tempered glass backboard, FT196
Full-Tilt™ 180° breakaway goal and FT72C
TuffGuard™ bolt-on backboard padding. These
are the same components used in high schools
and colleges throughout the country.

The Tempest is also height adjustable. Rim
height adjustments from 10’ down to 6’ are made
easily with its “Spring-Aided” design. To adjust,
simply pull the pin located on the adjustment rod,
raise or lower the unit as needed and replace the
pin. One person can easily roll the unit into place
and set up quickly and easily.
Heavy foam padding, available in an array of
colors, protects players on the front, sides and
back of the base. The unit is extremely stable as
well as durable and will not tip over when players
hang on the rim. For additional support, rear
hold downs are included as required by the NCAA
and NHSF for competition portable goals.

INSTITUTIONAL SYSTEM WARRANTIES
Lifetime Limited (LL)
Covers any damage caused by normal basketball activity and normal player contact with the goal. "Normal basketball activity" and "Normal player contact" shall be described as any action that is necessary for participation in the game of basketball. Deliberate hanging on the rim, multiple player hanging, and vandalism are not covered under the Limited Warranty.
20-Year Limited (20L)
Same as above for a period of 20 years.
Lifetime Superior (LS)
Covers any damage or failure caused by any type of basketball activity or related contact with the unit. This includes deliberate hanging on the rim as well as multiple player hanging. The Superior Warranty does not cover vandalism.
Lifetime Unconditional (LU)
Covers any damage or failure that occurs for any reason. Any product carrying an Unconditional Warranty is exempt from the previously stated limitations.
Note: Any normal wear and tear caused by weathering or UV exposure is not covered under any First Team warranty. All painted items carry a one year limited warranty on coating.
Durable, dependable basketball systems affordably priced and designed for slightly lighter use than public, unsupervised play. Recommended for private family, supervised use.
The majority of the deals I put together for my customers are for multi-unit purchases. Given that, I can negotiate better shipping rates from the various freight carriers, Yellow, FedEx, SAIA.
Private consumer orders and single-unit orders are welcome and encouraged! You'll get the same great unit price and the lowest possible cost on freight.
DON'T BE FOOLED by system pricing that includes FREE freight. I can beat those prices.
WHAT'S MOST COMMON?
Hands down the RuffNeck System; in-ground, fixed-height, is the most cost-effective for public, outdoor use. 20-year warranty, nice board size, very cost-effective. RuffNeck systems ship for as little as $110 depending on location. RuffNeck systems ship for as little as $110 depending on location.
For a little nicer looking system with a bit more functionality, consider the Legend and the Legend Jr.
Adjustable Height: You can't go wrong with any. Most cost-effective is the Attack System but the move up to the Force System or Titan System gets you not only larger board size options, but also the Lifetime Superior Warranty.
Portables: The Fury System is the most commonly sold system to church groups and youth groups, and any organization type where you know, more or less, who's going to play on it. It's heavy enough for aggressive adult play and more than stable enough for youth play. Lifetime Limited Warranty covers everything basketball related, including dunking, but not the SHAQ hang on the rim gorilla slam.
For aggressive play or high-level competition play, go up to the Storm System or Thunder System. They are heavier so can support a larger board (glass) and they come with a Lifetime Superior Warranty. Everything is covered.
Please contact me via this web site or give a call toll free if I can answer any questions. I assure you I can put you in the best system for your needs and no one will be more helpful as you sort through sourcing your systems.
