This was for my daughter who wanted to get into the sport. It’s a good ball and hopefully will last. Nice colours she’s happy with it.
Pumped up and went flat the next day
Highly recommend.
Nothing much to say except a good ball and very worth it for the price
Thank you

Best Ball I have bought. Really good for Dribbling and specially for shooting because it has a good backspin Because of the Good Grip.

Grip is good... good for practice and not a good option for official matches.... because after 2weeks the threads is been seen..

What ball should you use?
If you want a very durable ball, go for a rubber ball. If you're looking for a ball with a good ball feel, choose a leather or synthetic ball.
For a good bounce, how much should you inflate your basketball?
A basketball that is overinflated or underinflated will deliver a sub-par playing experience.The recommended pressure is clearly marked on the ball by the manufacturer.Ideally, you should use a pump with a pressure gauge so that you can be more precise.At Tarmak, we recommend a pressure of: 0.62 bar.Enjoy your game!
