{"product_id":"outdoor-balls","title":"Outdoor Balls","description":"\u003ch2\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are the balls for playing outside. If your court is asphalt, concrete or a painted school yard, and there is any air moving across it, this is the ball you want. Rec games, drill sessions, a Saturday morning group: all of them call for the outdoor pattern rather than the indoor one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow it plays\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn outdoor ball is built to fight the wind and survive a hard surface, and the hole pattern is the tell. \u003cstrong\u003e40 holes\u003c\/strong\u003e, small and closely spaced, is what keeps the flight from wandering on a gusty afternoon. An indoor ball does the opposite, with fewer and wider holes and a softer shell, made for a still gym floor. Take one of those outside and you spend the evening watching it drift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe face\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shell is hard and smooth, with the \u003cstrong\u003e40 holes\u003c\/strong\u003e spaced evenly around the sphere. A hard shell is what gives an outdoor ball its sharp bounce off concrete and its clean pop off the paddle face. The colors are chosen to be seen: on a court at dusk, a bright ball is still a visible ball long after a pale one has vanished into the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWeight and balance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery ball is \u003cstrong\u003e2.9 in\u003c\/strong\u003e across and weighs \u003cstrong\u003e0.9 oz\u003c\/strong\u003e. That is the whole specification, and for a ball it is all that matters: a diameter you can pick up early in its flight, and a weight that carries without fighting the paddle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIn the box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBalls only, in the pack size you choose:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e6-pack\u003c\/strong\u003e, a session with spares\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e12-pack\u003c\/strong\u003e, for anyone who drills or runs a group\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo paddles are included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare and lifespan\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOutdoor balls are consumables. Every one eventually goes soft, goes out of round or cracks around a hole, and the harder your surface the sooner. Roll a ball across a flat floor to check it: a wobble means it is finished. Rinse the grit off, keep them out of a hot car, and retire a cracked one rather than let it ruin a rally.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seven Foot Line™","offers":[{"title":"Blue \/ 12-pack","offer_id":55519135170902,"sku":"14:173;200007763:201336100","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Yellow \/ 6-pack","offer_id":55519135203670,"sku":"14:29#Yellow 6PCS;200007763:201336100","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Orange \/ 12-pack","offer_id":55519135236438,"sku":"14:350852;200007763:201336100","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 6-pack","offer_id":55519135269206,"sku":"14:496#Green 6PCS;200007763:201336100","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 12-pack","offer_id":55519135301974,"sku":"14:175;200007763:201336100","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue \/ 6-pack","offer_id":55519135334742,"sku":"14:10#Blue 6PCS;200007763:201336100","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Yellow \/ 12-pack","offer_id":55519135367510,"sku":"14:366;200007763:201336100","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Orange \/ 6-pack","offer_id":55519135400278,"sku":"14:193#Orange 6PCS;200007763:201336100","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1067\/2383\/6246\/files\/S959d2a96d35342daa43cae3114f80150q.webp?v=1790576357","url":"https:\/\/sevenfootline.com\/products\/outdoor-balls","provider":"Seven Foot Line™","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
