Molten Volley Ball

I play indoor volleyball 3-4 times a week, and I've played with different kinds of volleyballs. This one is, by far, the best volleyball I have ever played with. I know that sounds like a gross exaggeration, but no other ball in the world can compare to this! It only took 2-3 games to break it in, which is much shorter than previous new balls I've used. The grip on this ball is amazing, and it's perfect for setting. I find that some volleyballs are slippery and difficult to grip properly (Mikasa brand balls are like that). This would be a great ball for someone who's learning how to set. Even the people on my team who aren't good setters say that their sets are better when they use this. The grip also makes it easy to overhand serve the ball. It's gotten to the point that I can't serve well with other balls because I'm so used to the amazing grip on this one. This ball is harder than most of the ones I've used, which means that spikes and hits come down on the other side of the court extremely fast. If you want a soft ball, then this is definitely not for you. You may want to try something like Molten's Super Touch. I personally don't mind the hardness. One minor issue I have with this ball is that it's very bouncy. When I first started passing with this, it went higher than most volleyballs I've used. Because of this, you definitely have to be mindful of how you pass the ball and make sure that your ball control is on point. Although I recommend this for beginning setters, I don't recommend this for beginning passers because of the bounciness. An experienced player can adjust to the ball's bounciness, but beginners probably won't be able to. Mikasa's MVA200 is a good ball for beginning passers. However, the bounciness still doesn't take away from the other amazing qualities this ball has. I can't comment on the longevity since I've only owned it for a few weeks, but my friends who own this ball say that they've had it for years and haven't had any major issues with it. I'll update my review in a few months and comment on the condition of the ball. Mine came deflated, which wasn't too much of a problem because I own a pump. However, in the future, Amazon, please don't deflate balls before shipping them! Edit on October 19, 2015 - I've owned this for almost a year, and it's still holding up strong! It's much dirtier than it was when I first bought it, but that's not surprising since I use it multiple times a week. I like that I don't have to pump air into it frequently - I've only inflated it 3 times since buying it. Definitely worth purchasing if you play intermediate or advanced level volleyball.

Great quality my Goddaughter was very pleased with this purchase.

It smaller then the mikasa ball but it feels good, good grip, and worth the price. It also looks good. Only disclaimer is you need a ball pump but that’s it.

Feels amazing i love it

Amazing volleyball!

This is a good ball for indoor play. The fit isn't exact so there are gaps between adhesive shell layers but still one of the better balls out there.

Muy bueno y suave

Ball feels great. Especially while setting and serving

Très bon produit, qualité Molten au rdv.

Perfetto per l'allenamento, ottimo e durevole.

Best quality my kids loved it

Der Ball hat Grip und lässt sich super spielen. Nachdem er mit Luft gefüllt wurde, war er rund, wie ein Kugel! Kein Ei! Wortspielen jetzt zum vierten Mal im Training mit dem. All. Alles perfekt. Lieferzeit war okay. Könnte einen Ticken schneller sein, aber noch im Rahmen.

Die Verarbeitung lässt noch viel Luft nach oben. Nur für ganz junge Anfänger als erste "Kontaktaufnahme" mit dem Ball geeignet. Werden für's Training kaum genutzt.
