Hi I am new to the forum and I would like to ask for your help.I bought this
one

http://www.olympusport.gr/index.php?controller=product&path=216_220&product_id=541

With the only difference that the base is not like that.The base can take one screw on top and one down (not like it seems in the link).So it only takes 2 screws.

I attached it to the wall but it is really unstable I can not even hit it.The holes are growing bigger and bigger and as a result it becomes really really unstable because of the screw not staying stable inside the wall.

I would greatly appreciate anyone who could help me.Thanks

Are you attaching it into the studs in the wall ? What kind of wall are you attaching to ?

I think the wall is made with ceramic bricks...As far as i know in our country (Greece) we do not put studs on the wall.

What kind of screws are you using? Can you get anything similar to TAPCON screws in Greece? http://www.tapcon.com/

Those are made especially for concrete/brick.
