Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Turn any wide-open grass or dirt field into a makeshift baseball diamond with the Easton portable baseball/softball backstop. Also ideal as a catch net for soccer, golf, or hitting practice, the backstop features a durable steel flatwire frame that folds up in seconds. At its most compact, the backstop fits in a 37-inch circular carrying bag, so you can easily store it with your bats, balls, and gloves. When unfolded, however, the backstop measures a robust 12 by 9 by 6 feet (W x H x D) and will catch errant pitches and foul balls with ease. Users will love the heavy-duty netting, which is designed to absorb the impact of the ball so it falls harmlessly to the ground rather than rebounding with force. And thanks to the single breakdown pole and seven ground stakes, the backstop assembles easily and stays securely rooted to the ground. Ideal for players of all skill levels, the backstop also carries a 90-day warranty.

About Easton
In 1922, Doug Easton began crafting custom wood bows and cedar arrows in Watsonville, California. Although Doug produced tournament-grade, footed cedar arrows for the archery champions of that era, he was constantly frustrated with the inconsistency and lack of uniformity of wood shafts. Convinced that consistently straight uniform arrow shafts were impossible to manufacture from wood, Doug turned his attentions to aluminum. In 1939, he began manufacturing aluminum arrows in Los Angeles. His instincts about this material were correct, and in 1941, California archer Larry Hughes won the national championship with a set of Doug's aluminum arrows. This was the beginning of a trend that would change traditional archery and transcend into numerous other sports arenas over the next 50 years. Considered one of the world's preeminent innovators, designers, and manufacturers of sporting equipment, Easton has a reputation of producing products for the highest level of performance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fits the need, January 17, 2008

Perfect for practice at the house. We are using it for hitting off the tee, both soft-toss and live hitting, and both pitching alone and full distance with a catcher. Can be set up by one person, but two works best. We have also hit golf balls into it. So far so good. Folds easier than expected. The more it is used the easier it is to set up and take down.
The only down side is that you have to use the tie-down ropes, but they are easily accessible in bags attached the corners.
Works great for what us!

The Easton Pop Up backstop is a beast of a backstop for being portable. I bought this backstop for my backyard wiffleball field and it's great. The only con is putting it away (folding it up) is tought.

This is not a typical portable pop up. It opens and sets up easily and it is a decent size when open. I just finished putting it away after having it set up outside for 6+ months. It held up well and folded into a small package easily. I really liked the size when open.
