I want to use them for bounce juggling; will they work or not enough bounce? Are they as big as baseballs, softballs, or in between?

The Spalding High-Bounce is exactly as advertised - a high-bouncing ball! :) It is about the size of a racquetball (just a hair bigger). If you drop the ball and bounce it (using very little force), it will bounce back to about waist level, allowing you to catch it easily. As you increase the force of the bounce, you will get a higher response (the rule of physics applies very well here - Action / Reaction). Hope this helps!

2 and 5/16 in dia.Bounce very well, good grip.and great for stick ball, box ball and stoop ball growing up in NYC.Even played stick ball with Joe Torre in Brooklyn as kids using street corner sewers as bases...

These certainly do bounce and I could imagine that they would be good for juggling. They are a little smaller than a baseball and are hollow (unlike the pink sponge balls). They gained popularity as the best ball for stick-ball (if that helps).

They have good bounce and they are soft. They are a little smaller than a baseball but not much.

They're smaller than baseballs, with a rubbery texture that's very easy to grip. I can't juggle (and I've never tried) at all, so I don't know if you could use these. They're very light, and *very, very* bouncy, so I would think they could work quite well.

Hi, they bounce good but they are very small. I would say 3/4 of a tennis ball...

They are super bouncy, light, and about the size of a small baseball. They should be a good choice for your use case. Thanks!

in the 1950's we played handball against the school wall...Chinese not American.. In chinese the ball bounces one time before hitting the wall. They are smaller than baseballs but they do bounce very well. Also used for stickball. We used the fire hydrant for first base, the manhole for second and old man wileys stoop for third.

I have a 14-15# version, and like the others have stated, it's got very little bounce. It's great for resistance, and I've been doing floor slams with mine, and it's got only the slightest bounce. If you want bouncy, Valeo's basketball-style medicine balls are great. They have a good amount of bounce considering the weight.

I would say these would not work for your purpose. You won't definitely won't get a true bounce in spots as you dribble. Also if you were to take a dive or trip and fall, the grippers on top would tear your skin up something serious. I'd rather fall on smooth concrete or tar. YMMV, but as a basketball player myself, I know these wouldn't 'cut it' for me.

not sure what NERF balls are like, but i'm guessing no because these are very lightweight and do not travel far when thrown, hit, etc..

No, you don't bounce around as much. They still bounce, but it's not as springy so the bouncing is less.

Well it depends on what kind of sport and the amount of movement in it . I wouldnt recommend using them as if their on your head they can fall off and break since theyre made of plastic but if your doing light work then go for it .

I have never played that game, but they might work. They are really small... maybe an little more than an inch tall and an inch and a half long?

Yes. You can definitely juggle with them. They're smaller than tennis balls.

These sticks are around a 2B diameter. They are also longer in length than your average stick. There is some flexing of the stick when playing but if you are not an extreme hard hitter these will work fine.

If you are looking for something light and not very durable I would say yes. I have not personally used them for that but if the process you use works on standard ping pong balls it would probably be the same on this one. I hope this helps out.

These juggling balls are underinflated and very light. They are designed to have a very low bounce if dropped. I like the size and texture. They are not suitable at all for bounce juggling.

They are much larger than a tennis ball. Probably close to the size of a basketball.

I have never tried another type of balls but I imagine anything light and with the same or smaller dimensions will work just fine. Do not purchase anything heavier since the projection of this toy is rather weak. It probably pops up no higher than 3 feet.

They are round and I believe the would work for a toy needing them to roll. Hope this helps.

Absolutely!! These balls are amazing.. It all depends on how much air u pig in them.. That will dictate how hard they will bounce. Four square yes. The rhino skin is awesome great texture. I use them for dodge ball in our gym.. Hours of fun.. You can't go wrong.... Good luck

I think they will be fine however, my 9 year only hits them in our indoor net. Not sure how they would hold up outside and being hit by older kids. Sorry, I wish I was more help.

They never lasted that long. I had 1 cat who played fetch with them - I shot them with my fingers and they were fine. I just found 1 new one in a drawer and it bounces adequately.
