Mini Pro 1.0 Hoop Winners through IWearYourShirt.com!

Thursday, November 4th, 2010
Mini Pro 1.0 Basketball Hoop

Two lucky winners will be dunking on these very soon!

I would like to thank both Jason and Evan of IWearYourShirt for their great promotion yesterday. I had a blast interacting with all of you on Facebook and Twitter throughout the day. The chats on UStream sometimes bordered on the insane, but it was all in good fun.

Now, down to the real business. We had 2 different contests running yesterday for our Mini Pro 1.0 Basketball Hoop. One was on Twitter and the other through Facebook. On Twitter we asked you to tweet “The @JustInTymeSport mini hoops are …”. Some of the great tweets were

  • @williamcheek @JustInTymeSport mini hoops are WAY too cool for school…I heartily embrace the “and older” part of your age recommendation.
  • @johncorfee The @JustInTymeSport mini hoops are so amazingly awesome that they make me bow down on my knees offering much praise and worship.
  • @jkelly901 The @JustInTymeSport mini hoops are innovative and make me feel like a kid again
  • @MomMostTraveled The @JustInTymeSport mini hoops stay crispy in milk.
  • @tracydmc70  The @JustInTymeSport mini hoops are adorable, perfect for a big game in a little space!

The winner, though, was @Peter352 The @JustInTymeSport mini hoops are exactly what I need to ensure my day consists of only 10% actual work. So, gimme one already.

On Facebook we asked you to give us the most creative shot you would take on our mini hoops. Again, a lot of creativity, and quite a few had me laughing. The winner from Facebook is Matt Hoffman who said:

There are three shots i’d like to do. One would involve some ice cubes and a nine iron. Two would include a buffalo…
Live or stuffed, preferably stuffed for safety sake, and three, we bring
back some of those ice cubes and switch it over to a pitching wedge. Just sayin. (p.s. name the reference and get a free high-five)

The Billy Madison reference, handing out high-fives, and following it with a reference to How I Met Your Mother put him over the top!

Please get in touch with me through Twitter, Facebook, or e-mail (justin@justintymesports.com) with your address and we will send you the hoop. Congratulations you two! Enjoy the hoops! For the rest of you who are disappointed, you can still save 10% by entering IWYS during checkout.

Amazing Shot on Mini Pro 2.0 Basketball Hoop Set!

Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

I’ve been spending some time on You Tube recently trying to find videos featuring our Mini Pro Basketball Hoops. I came across this amazing shot made by a young boy on our “old” Mini Pro 2.0 in his bedroom.  I would love to see more videos of your trick shots or one-on-one games. You can also visit us on You Tube and check out our upcoming Mini Pro Challenge Series!

Mini Collegiate Hoop Preview

Saturday, July 31st, 2010
Mini Collegiate Hoop - Michigan State University

Mini Collegiate Hoop - Michigan State University

As a Michigan State alumnus, I am proud to present the first mini basketball hoop in our Collegiate Series featuring officially licensed MSU logos!

The Mini Collegiate Hoop uses the same design as our ever-popular Mini Pro I Door Mount. The same strength and realistic play are evident. The specially designed door hooks allow for the hoop to mount over both sides of the door increasing the options for play. This hoop is designed for indoor play and will fit perfectly in your bedroom, dorm room, or even your office!

As of now the hoops are scheduled to begin shipping on August 6. Stay tuned for more details!

Mini Pro Hoop Challenge – Coming Soon!!!

Friday, July 30th, 2010

One of the most common concerns people have as they look for a mini basketball hoop is the durability. You’ve all probably played on those cheap plastic or cardboard hoops that break on your first dunk. Heck, even some of our competitors’ hoops made of steel and polycarbonate are designed improperly and can break.

At JustInTymeSports we have been dedicated to making the strongest and most-realistic mini basketball hoops for the last 14 years. This has seen us constantly update and innovate our designs to keep giving you the realistic play you deserve. This new Mini Pro Hoop Challenge will give us a chance to show off the strength of our hoops while having some fun! We also plan on going head-to-head with the competition. So, if there is a hoop you want us to “challenge”, let us know!

If there are any tests you want to see us perform on our Mini Pro Hoops, please feel free to contact us.  In the meantime, enjoy the video below of me (180 lbs) doing pull-ups on our Mini Pro 2 Door Mount Hoop Set!
