Yes, the TPU material is durable and suitable for various conditions, but it's always best to dry the ball after playing in wet conditions to prolong its life.
How do I inflate the ball?

Troubleshooting
Ball won't inflate
Ensure the pump needle is fully inserted into the valve and that the valve is clear of debris. Check that the pump is functioning correctly.
Ball loses air quickly
Check the inflation valve for any damage or obstructions. Ensure the valve seal is intact. If the problem persists, the ball may have a slow puncture and may need replacement.
Ball shape is distorted
Ensure the ball has been inflated to the correct pressure. If it remains distorted after proper inflation, it may be due to manufacturing defect or damage from impact. Deflate and reinflate, or consider replacement if damage is evident.
