Hi Alois and Jeff! Sam here... I was wondering, if the new poly balls were any different compared to the celluloid balls in terms of playability and spin?

Hi Sam,

They are slightly different in their performance.

They have improved a lot in production over the last year.  They have tended to bounce a little higher and has changed the ability of players to play a bit flatter from a higher contact position.

Though celluloid balls were much better anyway. I am a young man,but I would even favour the old-time 21 points,5 serves,38mm balls system
