Design

Interlocking Cross Panel Construction 

• 2 Cross-shaped panels result in 1/3 fewer channels (traditional basketballs have 8 oblong panels)

• Less channel area allows for more material coverage and enhanced grip.

• Elimination of channel convergence decreases surface undulation for a truer, more consistent bounce.
