“Pros:-Call me crazy, I don’t ever see a noticeable difference between pickle balls, but I swear these have a better bounce than other balls I’ve used.-I have both the JOOLA paddle and balls and together they feel like a winning combination.-THe balls were all smooth with so rough edges. I’ve used them for about 8 games now and they show normal wear and tear.Cons:-I wish these came in a sack or a reusable can. The cardboard box will definitely break down pretty quickly. These are a little bit pricey compared to other balls I’ve gotten in the past.”
“Not all pickleballs are the same! This is my first name-brand pickleball. I've used a variety of generic balls, which are usually just fine. But, some generics are poor quality, with little bounce-ability or that break prematurely.I ordered these JOOLA balls after finding myself impressed with their paddles. I was hoping for some magical quality, but, they're as good as any other pickleball I've ever used. Considering their reasonable price, they're going to be my only pickleball from now on. I don't want to gamble with quality of generics with my future purchases, so I'm a JOOLA player now.”
“***UPDATE***Sure enough, this ball is fantastic at 40° and under. Way too soft at mid/high temps but once you hit about 40° this ball is great. Played this weekend starting at 36° one morning and 32° the next morning. The Joola balled held up fantastically when all other balls were cracking within 1 to 2 games. One ball finally cracked on Sunday morning but it's the one that had see the most play on Saturday. Once temps hit about 45° the ball felt too soft and we switched back over to Core balls.Softer than a Franklin X-40 which is already borderline too soft. These will go back into the closet until next winter to see if they do well at 40* when the X-40 barely last a full game before breaking. Hopefully that will be their niche 70* DuraFast. Also, ignore any reviews that say these balls have seams. They are 100% a rotomolded ball that have a molding mark just like every other rotomolded ball does. I would say the molding mark is less pronounced than most and will be worn off within a couple of games.”
