Review on Waboba Pro Water Bouncing Ball - Assorted Colors by Kaushik Hall

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Quite Possibly the Best Water Toy, Ever

The Waboba is one of the best toys I've ever owned.Sure, it took me about a year before I finally got to use it, but when I finally did get to whip it out it was an instant hit.I brought it to a small pool at my friend's apartment complex and we just skipped it back and forth across the pool (while standing outside of the pool itself). Now, this obviously isn't the best way to use it considering we weren't even in the water.but we still had loads of fun. In fact, after that day 2 of my friends bought one immediately.It got a bit roughed up over time because we ended up unintentionally skipping it against concrete poolsides and intentionally skipping it against stucco walls (made up an awesome game that was like handball), but it only has a small hole in the fabric and a bunch of pils. The ball itself still skips beautifully as intended.Finally got to try it at the beach this last weekend and it was the most fun I've had with it yet. Everybody who walked by wanted to know what it was, and since we had plenty of room to throw we really started to get the hang of it.An overhand throw will often result in a faster skip that is more difficult to catch. A sidehand type throw will give it more of a hop, but less velocity. It takes a bit of practice, but once you get the hang of it you will have a lot of fun.

Pros
  • Encourages outdoor play and exercise
Cons
  • May be too heavy for some users to throw
