Troubleshooting
Ball not holding air
Ensure the pump needle was moist and inserted correctly. Check for any visible damage to the valve. If the issue persists, the bladder may be faulty.
Ball feels soft or deflated quickly
Check for leaks by submerging the ball in water and looking for bubbles. Ensure the valve is properly sealed. The ball may require re-inflation.
Ball is not perfectly round
Ensure the ball is inflated to the correct pressure. If it remains misshapen after proper inflation, it may be a manufacturing defect or the ball has been stored improperly.
Surface scuffing or peeling
This is normal wear and tear with frequent use on rough surfaces. Ensure the ball is not used on sharp or abrasive materials that could cause premature damage.
