Hi Girish,

The plastic ball tends to hold up a little and as a result it can be a little difficult at first to adjust your push.  Push more into the ball and expect it will sit up more that you are currently used to.  Practice it a bit especially your short pushing and you will find you will start to be able to adjust to the plastic ball.

I think its easier for the plastic ball to keep the ball you pushed low. It give me a heavier feel when i try to lift the ball. So, my push doesn't really go long or high.
