TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Technical features
Not all of our balls are made in the same way. The panels can be stitched in different ways: machine stitched or hand stitched for better resistance to wear, better shape retention and better performance.
A ball's grip is what lets you control it when passing and receiving.
Thanks to its torpedo shape, the ball offers the very best aerodynamics and better stability through the air, making for even longer passes.
It's a ball designed for playing regularly and for match play.
If you train and play regularly, you'll be looking for a ball like this, one that's hard-wearing, stays inflated and feels good.
