The First Team Olympian Arena offers the residential basketball player the ultimate in durability and flexibility. From its enormous 6″ x 8″ post to its welded dual strut extension arm, this system can stand up to the elements, as well as anything else you can throw at it. For maximum safety, the post is set 4′ back from the backboard. If you decide to move, you have the option of taking the system with you, thanks to the anchor system. This feature also makes the Olympic Arena easy to level once you get it in place. Changing the height on the Olympian Arena is an easy process, thanks to the EZ crank adjustment feature.

Designed to make it easy for players of all ages to adjust the rim height, the mechanism is located at the back of the post for safety reasons. This unit’s anchor system makes it easy to level once you have selected a spot for it, and you can remove it easily and take it with you if you decide to move. Pole padding and backboard padding can be added to this package as optional items. You can also choose to put lettering on the pole padding, if desired. The Olympic Arena Adjustable Basketball System gives you an extreme level of stability and durability. It will provide you with several years of use and can stand up to all kinds of weather conditions. This package comes with a 42″ x 72″ tempered glass backboard and a heavy duty flex goal.

How high is a basketball rim?

I want to adjust my rim so i can practice on it. I DO NOT WANT HEIGHT (10 FEET) I’m looking for the 8th grade hight whatever that is? or is it 10 feet? Thanks!

I think you should try on 10 ft only coz later you will have no problem for shooting on 10 ft rim.

Since you found this site, I assume you are interested in gaining a few extra inches of height. Although (if you’re a mature adult) this may sound like a pipe dream, I assure you that it is easier than you think! We’ve all been taught that height is mostly out of our control, that it’s largely determined by genetics. I’m here to tell you that there is more to the story. Of course our gene pool has a lot to do with ones height, but it is definitely not the only factor. Your state of emotion, your exercise regimen, the food you eat, and the hours you sleep are all factors in height determination. Click here to read the rest of the article: Free Height Enhancement
