Waboba Ball Is Summer Craze

By on August 15, 2008 in Inventions

Telegraph.co.uk:

The Waboba ball, which is about the size of a golf ball, has taken off around the world after videos were posted on YouTube.

Made of a combination of plastics with a lycra coating, it is described as having the consistency of a breast implant.

The ball is about the same density as water and floats when at rest, but bounces high and true when thrown. It continues to bounce until it is caught or runs out of steam.

The ball took Swedish inventor Jan von Heland several years to perfect, but it is now being sold around the world after first taking off on the beaches of Australia.

“I first got the idea when I was throwing a frisbee upside down on the water trying to get it to bounce,” he said.

“I thought it would be good to get something that used the water to bounce off and began to experiment.”

    When were in the beach, we usually played “hit me that ball”. Whoever got hit with the ball will then the one will throw the ball to all of us who played it.
    I think if we have this Waboba ball, more fun can we have coz the ball bounces. So not only one can be hit if were not quick to avoid the waboba ball.
    Its more fun and exciting!
