Why shouldn't the ball have a seam?

Alois Rosario Answered 12 years ago

Hi Varun,

They are lower in quality and will not bounce as consistently. They are often a softer ball using less material to form the ball.

Is the seam useful for us?

Alois Rosario from PingSkills Posted 12 years ago
No, it just makes for an uneven bounce which is not what we are looking for.
