Troubleshooting
Ball deflates quickly after inflation
Check the inflation valve for any damage or debris. Ensure the pump needle is inserted correctly and not causing a leak. If the issue persists, there might be a small puncture in the casing.
Ball feels too hard or too soft
Re-inflate or deflate the ball to the recommended pressure. The ideal pressure provides a firm feel without being overly rigid.
Graphics fading or peeling
This can occur with excessive wear or exposure to harsh elements. Ensure the ball is cleaned gently and stored properly. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing.
Ball loses shape
Ensure the ball has been inflated to the correct pressure and not over-inflated. If the shape issue persists after correct inflation, it may be due to prolonged improper storage or significant wear.
