Review on TOURNA Strike Outdoor Pickleballs Pack by Nick Santos

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great Pickleballs!: outdoor games and fun

I bought these balls for practice and practice as they are so much cheaper than all the other balls (only $1.08 at the time of purchase). I'm tired of hitting a few balls and then running after them. They come in a mesh pouch which seems less wasteful than plastic blisters or plastic boxes and is also useful for carrying balls around. The balls have a pronounced seam at the junction of the halves. All 12 of mine were smooth at the seam so as long as they don't tear at the seam I don't see a problem with that. As far as I can tell, the rebound is nearly identical to the Franklin X-40, which isn't surprising since both meet USAPA requirements for tournament play. The biggest downside is that they're automatically hated almost everywhere I go without even playing with them. Seriously, no one even wants to try them, it's ridiculous. I don't really care since I bought them as training balls, but I find them a bit silly.

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • something different
