Product Overview
The Bison T-Rex Sport Portable Basketball System delivers elite-level performance, safety, and durability for every level of play - from international competition to intramural and recreational use. Engineered with Bison?s industry-leading extension spring counterbalance technology, the T-Rex system allows the rim height to be raised, lowered, and stored quickly, smoothly, and safely. Zero-maintenance, self-lubricating bearings combined with chrome-plated steel pivot axles ensure long-term reliability and effortless operation at every pivot point.
Designed with both performance and aesthetics in mind, the T-Rex features a narrow-profile upright to reduce visual interference for spectators and media. Ballast weight is fully concealed within a covered containment cell, preserving a clean, professional appearance. Floor-friendly 8" x 2" wide casters - configured by model - allow for easy, worry-free mobility, and when placed in the transport position, the system rolls through any doorway with a minimum clearance of 84" high by 78" wide.
The T-Rex Sport is the first and only truly outdoor-durable T-Rex portable basketball system. All primary steel components are hot-dip galvanized for superior corrosion resistance, making the system ideal for outdoor courts and harsh coastal or high-humidity environments. The padded base features 1" thick dense polyethylene foam that resists moisture absorption and is bonded to a non-wood industrial backing to prevent warping, rotting, and water damage. A heavy-duty 14-oz vinyl cover provides added protection and a professional finish.
Choose between an official-size 42" x 72" tempered glass backboard or an unbreakable polycarbonate backboard, both paired with a heavy-duty breakaway rim. Integrated locking mechanisms prevent unauthorized height adjustment and unwanted base movement, ensuring safety and consistency during play.
16 padding colors available, specify color (Black, Brown, Burnt Orange, Cardinal, Columbia Blue, Forest Green, Gold, Gray, Kelly Green, Maroon, Navy, Orange, Purple, Royal, Scarlet, Vegas Gold) when ordering. Optional lettering on padding.
