ball
he weight of the ball should represent approximately 10% of your body weight, focusing on comfort above all, so if it is too heavy or you have difficulty controlling it, opt for a lighter model, otherwise it could harm your technique and tire you quickly. Test several balls first.
Hole size
Too tight holes can make it difficult to release the ball, too wide will affect throwing because the ball will slip from your fingers.
ontrol the ball effectively and release smoothly with a good fit, make sure the fingers can enter up to the second knuckle.
hull
performance, reaction and durability will differ from one material to another.
Affordable plastic (polyester), straighter trajectory, ideal for learning to aim and control.
urethane better grip, better curve control, ideal for starting throws with spin.
reactive resin, good grip and reactivity, allowing more pronounced curves, interesting once you gain your confidence and recommended for more experienced players.
handling
two main ways to hold the ball
Conventional offers good control and stability, your fingers are inserted up to the second phalanx.
finger tip is more difficult but allows you to easily create an effect on the ball, only the tips of the fingers (up to the first phalanx) are inserted into the holes.
aesthetic
for the pleasure of playing and this motivated, the appearance, pattern and color are available without having an impact on performance.
