DIMENSIONS AND ADAPTABILITY
The goal is 250 cm wide, 80 cm high and 92 cm deep.
This water polo goal has the official dimensions for beach water polo. The structure is reinforced by additional hoops that are not deformed by the impact of shots by adult players.
It can be used to play water polo anywhere: in a pool, a lake or the sea. The goalposts are circular with a 12 cm diameter.
ASSEMBLY
INFLATION
The goal must be inflated using a 7 PSI (0.48 bar) pressure pump via the "Boston" type valve installed on the goal. We recommend using a 5.2L pump sold at DECATHLON (reference 8243066 or 8387583).
PUMP NOT PROVIDED.
INNOVATIVE WEIGHTING
The goal is attached using ropes or an innovative system of weights.
To weigh it down effectively, fill the bags with stones or sand up to the limit to reach a weight of about 15 kg.
Each bag is then inflated in order to swim to the pitch. This makes it easier to position the bags around the pitch. Once the weights are in position, deflate them so that they descend to the bottom.
RESISTANCE
The inflatable part of our goal is made of three bladders: the main bladder is connected to the two hoop bladders by a ONE pump system that is used to inflate all the bladders through the main valve.
Each TPU bladder is enclosed in a tarpaulin protective sleeve (a mixture of several layers of PVC and fabric).
This makes the product highly resistant to external factors and ensures the goal keeps its rectangular shape.
DISASSEMBLY
Fully unscrew the top cap of the valve then partially unscrew the valve at the foot of the goal to allow air to escape for about 1 minute.
PLEASE NOTE: You will hear a very loud noise if you unscrew the bottom of the valve too quickly.
CARE ADVICE
Our product has been designed so that it can be repaired by the customer. If you notice a leak, simply open the two zips surrounding the punctured bladder and remove the bladder to locate the puncture.
A repair kit (patch + spare valve + rope) is provided.
We also supply a video of instructions that shows how to extract the bladders from their protective sleeves in order to apply the patch and repair the goal.
