The video shows the ball with no bounce whatever for floor slams. I'm wondering if this ball lacks the bit of bounce you'd get with a Dynomax?

I haven't had any issues with bounce. I used it for bounces off of a wall for reps and it performed as expected. I am very pleased with this ball and I would/will buy another one.

Correct, there is no bounce to this ball. I prefer it though. I like the soft, sandy feel.

No it will not bounce, it is great for an indoor basketball hoop, either over the door or wall. I got this for my grandson who is 8, along with the indoor hoop and he loves it!

We had to use a small air compressor. I would not recommend this bouncer. Read the reviews. Ours split at the seam and I read reviews after to see if anyone else had the same problem. I found that it is an issue with nearly everyone who purchased it.

The bolo balls are somewhat soft, but they bounce well. The Miranda steel version of ladder golf is the best that I have seen.It is top quality all the way!

Not a player, but the medium seems smaller, the large is definitely bigger and they're more like a racquetball. It's got good bounce on hard surfaces but quickly deminishes the softer it is. real noticeable from hard packed red clay and the same with 1/8 inch sand on top. because of the two holes it will not bounce straight up and down, sometimes with great shift.

It sort of bounces, but it really is intended just for shooting. You can use it indoors, but like anything you throw inside there's always the chance it could knock over a lamp or something. We have a rule that it's for shooting only, not throwing around the room!

The one I personally own feels like it would break if I swung at air let alone hit anything with it. However there are videos on YouTube of this mastersword being put under pressure and seemed to hold up. So I guess u just have to get lucky and hope you get a good one.

All day long! However, they don't bounce! I have two sets of these in my gym. They are very durable. Bought a couple of years ago. If you want a heavy ball that will bounce back to you, get rubber. The rubber ball is no good for throwing up on walls it will mark (black) your wall. Hope this helps in anyway.

It does bounce, I don't know how well it would work for basketball but soccer would work.

Everything you said and a pump for the balls. i have it in my garage/man cave and it holds pretty well with dunking and across the room shots. However, the balls are a bit too rubbery and bouncy. Other than that a solid product.

the J/fit ball that I ordered is constructed very very well. The dynamax ball was a lot more money, that's why i chose this one and i've been very happy.

I had trouble w/the one I bought long ago. The bean shaped ball can be replaced at local shops like Gart or Big 5 sports in our area. I gave it away long ago since it required too much jumping for my knee conditions. I don't know if anything else broke or not but I had read quite a bit of negative feedback. Mostly HE is annoying. I prefer Denise Austin or the 5 mi walking CD's. Stairs are cheaper workouts!

Yes has good tackiness. But it is more a case of it has a taught tacky topsheet and fast rebounding sponge. So the spin has to be produced by brushing the ball as it has a fast sponge so you don't get the same hang time as say a tacky Chinese rubber that doesn't have as much speed as the jet 600. It has lots of both spin and speed and once used to it good control. Has enough spin to make people comment on it (a good backspin serve is very hard for my workmates to lift). Depends on the player but rating of 9 for spin and 8 for speed is pretty accurate I reckon. I keep my rubber clean and tacky with spinmax aqueous Yes has good tackiness.

This is definitely the ball for you. This ball is considered to be an entry level/lower-mid performance reactive ball, a step-up from the beginner balls which do not hook at all. This ball is easy to control and hooks very well on medium/dry lane. It is also an effective spare ball on heavy oil lanes.

So as one other said, they don't always hold pressure. But, I think it does most of the time. My tennis balls have enough bounce it has to be. As for life, mine is 6m old and working about the same as when I got it. I did lube with I think some vaseline. Without that it really drags when you put it together. Some say that's the wrong thing to lubricate it with. I'm guessing you can get another o-ring at any good hardware store.

I went ahead and bought the ball. I have found that the ball does bounce off a wall for a couple of feet when thrown horizontally. By the time it drops to the floor it is a few feet.
