You won't believe that a ball can improve your game! December 9, 2007
Ted Sanderson (Indianapolis, IN)

The only thing I can say about this is that you won't believe it until you play with it. The ball MAKES YOU BETTER.
Wilson's WAVE technology adds a bunch of extra channels to the ball. Even though we all naturally rotate the ball in our hands to find a channel before we shoot, this one let's you do it much quicker. Your release time is better on shots (at least mine is). I'm getting less shots blocked, and the surface helps my ball handling a lot. (I'm not a great dribbler).
I always thought that good basketballs were all pretty similar. This one makes a difference. It's really easy to switch to this ball, and my whole game got better - I have more control on both offense and defense, and my shooting percentage is up.
Wow this ball is sick.... But be aware... June 20, 2008

Yes, this ball will improve your game by a lot. But this ball is very spoiling. Once you start playing with this ball, all other balls will not have that same feel, so your shot will be different. Yes, some will say who cares what kind of ball it is, if you have a good shot you have a good shot. But in reality, the feel of the ball affects the way you shoot. And this ball has incredible feel. Just be aware that once you get accustomed to shooting this ball, you might have a hard time going back.
Basketball that has a great feel July 20, 2008

This is one of my favorite basketballs. Initially picked it up in a store, and fell in love with the grooves. Has a nice grip that will help shooting and ball handling. Ball has a great feel to it. Amazon's price beat in-store price. I coach a youth team and they are drawn to this type of ball. I also have a 28.5 size basketball that I purchased in a store. Get it.
