Troubleshooting
Ball does not inflate properly
Ensure the inflation needle is properly inserted into the valve and that the pump is functioning. Check for any debris obstructing the valve. Do not force the needle.
Ball loses air quickly
Inspect the inflation valve for damage or leaks. If the valve appears faulty, consider replacing the ball. Ensure the inflation needle is not left in the valve after inflation.
Surface feels slippery or grip is reduced
Clean the ball with a damp cloth to remove dirt and oils. If the ball is new, it may require a break-in period. Ensure hands are clean and dry before playing.
Ball feels too hard or too soft
Check the ball's pressure with a pressure gauge and adjust to the recommended range. The circumference should be between 749–780 mm.
