Description

GoSports Sand Gel offers an innovative and superior alternative to traditional sandbags and water for stabilizing outdoor equipment bases. Just one pouch replaces up to 400 lbs of sand. Simply add fresh water to create a firm, stable gel that offers enhanced stability, with none of the mess or hassle of sand and water. Unlike sand, which can make a mess, or water, which can slosh around, Sand Gel absorbs up to 400 times its weight in water for firm stability to reduce the risk of tipping or blowing over. Ideal for basketball hoops, patio umbrella bases, volleyball nets, punching bags, and boxing equipment. The gel solidifies once set, which means there’s no risk of leaks damaging indoor flooring or carpets. Additionally, Sand Gel is resistant to freezing, unlike water, which can freeze and crack, making it ideal for year- round use. For disposal, you can safely use salt to break it down and dispose of it down drains. Get maximum stability and savings with GoSports Sand Gel!

  • Would buy again if I needed to
Works great & keeps very heavy umbrella stable. Just add water.

  • Where Has This Been My Whole Life?!
Go Sports Sand Gel is the greatest thing since sliced bread! I detest sand, but it is a necessary evil for weighting down many things as we all know. Tried water over sand and it's just not as good in my opinion. This right here does the trick. Instructions are simple. You mix the amount you want with water in a sturdy plastic bag and get sand without the mess. We have used it to support a huge golf net that we have. I've also used it for smaller things out by the pool. It's worth every penny. I will continue to use this product. ... show more

  • Better Than Sand!!
Worked perfectly and sealed the leak we had in our basketball goal base. So far so good, the goal has not tipped over during the high winds we’ve recently had. I recommend this product!!

  • DO NOT BUY unless you want a broken basketball hoop - does not work at all!
Don't waste your time or money, I don't know how this has so many good reviews. This stuff does not work and now we have a broken basketball hoop. We just had water in our basketball hoop and bought this to help secure better in HIGH winds. Today it was blown over in light winds and we realized it was waaay lighter than when we just had water in it, I could literally push it over with one hand now. We followed the instructions verbatim, there is no way this comes to even close to "equal to 400lbs of sand". Wasted money on this product and now I need to buy my kids a new basketball hoop. ... show more

  • Better than nothing
Better than water, but still not great. Bought because we had to replace a portable basketball hoop that fell over in the wind even though the base was filled with water. Possibly because we have it at standard game height… anyway, saw this, thought we would try it. Easy to use, and does do a great job, but beware- the hoop can still fall over. First wind of the season and ours fell- luckily nothing broke this time, but I would definitely recommend the weighted bag for the top of the base AND this!! This alone doesn’t cut it. ... show more

  • Small but mighty
I purchased this product to fill an offset umbrella base. The idea of figuring out how to get enough sand to the back of my house was daunting so when I saw this as a suggested alternative, I thought why not give it a try. When it arrived and I saw how small the package was, I thought oh this is a joke. I showed it to my husband and he asked if this was a joke! We decided to give it a shot and I am so glad we did. He divided the product among the four quadrants of the umbrella base, slowly added water, and watched the product expand. It says it provides 400 pounds of support and I have to think it does: if the base did not have wheels, it would not be moving. Ever. And the 12’x12’ umbrella is not moving. Such a great option! ... show more
