You said they made no sound but they clearly had sound in the video. Need to record the same sequence of play using a standard pickleball so we can determine the difference, and use a sound meter to show the difference.
So, the mission has failed -- if you think the mission was to create a new pickleball that duplicates the feel and performance of a contentional pickleball but reduces the percussive sound. Why can't manufacturers do that?
Interesting. Great for people who want the feel of pickleball, aren’t competitive, don’t care to play in pickleball tournaments, or beginners. Otherwise, I can see bad habits forming from too much use, if you actually want to play pickleball “competitively”. That said, I think the only way to quiet down the pickleball, but retain the feel is by keeping the outside the same (with the holes and plastic) and doing some sort of foam core on the inside walls….
Ball bounces higher and more quiet are good for pickleball Player, most people who are the mid age playerd with original ball could hurt their back later on, because it bounce low and flat in any directions.
@famousbyfridaypickleball9393 - Curious about the longevity of the ball? How long does a ball last? Does the outer "skin" crack after a while -- either from drying out or wear and tear?
We only hit with them a couple of days.....so I don't know for sure. They seemed like they would hold up. I can report that if you have a Great Dane dog around the house they do not last long!
I've been a USPTR certified teaching tennis pro for 30 years. I think pickleball is great, and whatever gets you out interacting with others and exercising can only be a good thing. I personally have not been involved in anything pickleball-related, but watching this video and others- could it be that there is next to zero footwork required? I understand that pickleball is accessible to more people since the court is smaller, and it's far less running, but just curious about the lack of footwork I see with pickleball players. Is that really the correct technique?
@@jacobbalmes2545 I had assumed that is the case, as high performance tennis is not possible without footwork. I watch a little pickleball on YT, and in general- I don't see shoulder turns, or split steps - but maybe I'm watching the wrong people- or maybe the game is so fast that there's only time for arms / hands.
It's level dependent. In pro level Pickelball everyone split steps and most footwork is taken directly from tennis and then adapted to the sport as regards to court size and ball speed etc. Check out some PPA tour gold medal matches for reference. Have a nice day.
So in other words, you have never played pickleball? If you watch the pros on TH-cam, you will quickly see the intricacies of the game, including proper footwork, swing technique, strategy, and of course quickness and coordination. Jimminy Christmas!
Dude, get to the point faster. You could have made this a one minute video. The point is, do they play the same. If they don't, end of story. Also, too many long pauses.
tell that to residents who bought condos or houses and THEN pb courts were put in, its so annoying that theres now court cases suing the mgmt for this, i dont blame them, a person needs quiet enjoyment of their living space, as the law states. @@Kartertheblackmamba
@World Viewer Except in table tennis, you can hit that ball extremely fast if you're good enough. You can't do that with PB because the ball has holes in it. It's specifically designed so you the ball CANNOT travel fast.

i filled a PB ball with expanding foam, exactly the same noise level

I would love to try these balls for practicing dinks against my basement wall. I can’t seem to find them anywhere. Where can I buy them?
On the internet

I can’t find these balls online. Link?
gamma has relisted them as "librarian"

You play pickleball when you're body can't do that footwork... you know what I mean..
In this video they are playing cross singles so you don't have to move much. But in regular 1v1s and 2v2 you definitely need footwork!

lol yea i agree, i watched it on 1.5x and the pauses were still a bit long
Looks like it's time for you to take the time and effort to make a better video.
I HATE the sound of pb!! so annoying! ya using a different ball and padded/covered paddles would reduce the noise a LOT!!
Or just ignore it 🤣 it’s not that loud Karen

I’d challenge someone like you any day of the week , We have a group of women all over 70 ….come see us …any time buddy !!!!
Cool! I love to play! It's a great sport! Thank you for watching!
Have fun and PB is an oxymoron.
troll…
Or you can pad the paddle, like ping pong. PB is essentially snail pace ping pong, designed for out of shape people.

A ping pong ball is moving very slowly by the time you need to return it. Especially, if you play in a large room!
@@rraymond2007 Yes, but if you're far from the table, getting the ball back is a challenge.
Ping pong is for people scared of fresh air.
what an ignorant comment!
