This one's for all you soccer fanatics out there. It's an iGoal Mini, an inflatable soccer goal post that allows you to practice your bend kicks almost anywhere. Already popular overseas, the iGoal also represents a safe alternative to traditional goal posts made of steel, which have been known to cause serious injury when they tip over. When fully inflated, an iGoal only weighs about 15 lbs. How does it work? It's pretty simple really. When its deflated, the iGoal and all its pieces are small enough to fit in a gym bag (the iGoal comes with its own gym bag for carrying purposes). All you have to do is find a plot of land to play on. Once you do, you pull the iGoal out, use its 2-way pump to fill it with air, anchor it to the ground with a handful of pegs, and proceed to have a blast! The iGoal comes in a bunch of different sizes (the one pictured here stands at 6'4" when inflated), so whether you're planning to play with friends at the local park or work on your headers in the backyard, there's a post perfect for you. It retails for about $200, and can be found on the iGoal USA website. Click here to return to the ToolShed
