BuzzerBeater Mini Inflatable Basketball System
Scaled-down, inflatable basketball system is ideal for younger users. The smaller design decreases the distance from the hoop, making it easier to sink baskets. Compact construction also makes it easier to retrieve balls quickly from the unit.
The portable basketball bounce house inflates in just 6 minutes to start play quickly. It includes 2 inflatable hoops for exciting head-to-head competitions or team play. Balls automatically roll back toward players for constant action. A barrier at the bottom collects balls and provides easy access to grab them. It comes with a 1 HP blower and uses constant air to stay inflated during use.
Heavy-duty, commercial-grade vinyl construction is ready for intense, fast-paced play during PE classes, after school programs, and fundraising events. Stake down the system during outdoor use using attached anchor loops (stakes not provided). System deflates to 25"L x 25" dia and can be stored in a specially-designed bag. Optional steel cart (48"L x 30"W x 42"H; 40 lb) is sold separately and makes transporting the system simple. Included vinyl basketballs are tough and tacky for enhanced grip. Their bladderless and seamless construction provides long-lasting use.
Set includes inflatable basketball system with blower (13'6"L x 12'W x 8'H; 75 lb), 6 basketballs (Size 7), and a storage bag. Specify 2 colors when ordering. Color Option 1 is for the primary system color. Color Option 2 is the accent color.
