Hi PingSkills,

What's the different of the nittaku 3 stars and the premium one ? why the premium one is very expensive ?

Also what do you think about the Tibhar 3 Star balls?

Many sources said that this ball is the best but i think it's better to see each responses...

thank you :D

Hi Frendy,

I like the Nittaku balls in general.  The Premium I guess are the best of the best.

It would be good to hear others thoughts on different types of balls.

As contained air modifies pressure inside, due to temperature changes, do you think it could make a difference playing the same ball in hot tropical court and in an air conditioned court? Could you relate an experience while playing international circuit, of playing condition that really affected ball performance?

Hi Rene,

I think the ball does feel different in different conditions.

I think the rubber is more effected by the weather though.  In hotter conditions, the rubber feels a lot faster and in colder weather, the rubber feels harder and slower.

I don't know that Yasaka is the best.  I have found them good for training with and affordable.

Me personally think that double fish 1 star are awesome. Pretty round, durable and hard. Yasaka are good but not value for money cuz its pretty expensive. Non the less its really good though.

For 3 star, i think... 1) Nittaku 2)Dhs

Not a lot.  I think some of them are more consistently good.
