Athletics Works Reaction Ball, Baseball Training Tool

This was a very unique ball to play with. I was not great so my coordination/reaction can really use some work. My kids loved it especially my son that plays basketball and reaction time really counts. This is a great ball that can really help train.

The Sklz training reaction ball was used by my son who plays club basketball. He has been using the ball every day to assist with his reaction speed and ball handling skills. The ball bounces unpredictability in different directions which aides in his development. Overall this ball is a great product to improve skills.

The Athletic Ball is a top-notch choice for sports enthusiasts. Designed for durability and performance, it offers excellent grip, making it suitable for various playing surfaces. The material ensures long-lasting use, even in rough conditions. Its well-balanced weight and bounce consistency provide a great playing experience for both beginners and professionals. Whether for training or competitive play, this ball delivers reliable performance. Overall, it's a high-quality product that meets the demands of serious athletes while remaining accessible for casual players. Highly recommended to improve concentration!

My Son plays baseball and this has been an interesting challenge for us all. Inside you can't get it to bounce hard enough to have it work well. Outside it challenged all of us to keep an eye on the bounce and the direction to attempt to catch it. Some of did much better than others. The baseball player had an advantage to his parents.

First off the color is great! It's eye catching and easy to find once it's been tossed. This ball has been a great way to work on hand-eye coordination. Such an effective and easy way to improve skills. The unique shape affects how the ball travels in the air and bounces off the ground. Perfect for those who play lots of sports, especially baseball!

I highly recommend this product if you are looking for a challenge, yet improvement on your hand-eye coordination! The unpredictability of which way it will go is splendid. It's a great way to teach yourself hand-eye coordination without having to rely on another person to help. This product is especially great for children wanting to expand their skills in sports such as baseball, tennis etc. As an adult you may feel frustration at first, but do not give up!

It works as a helpfull hand eye skill improver. Though I will say it is very frustrating alone off a wall. You do spend more time chasing it than actually catching it. I tried it with 2 individuals and it seams to work out much better. Especially if other individual is willing to chase your misses for you when you think your coordination is better than it is ha

It came in an easy to open package. I tried it inside and out as did my son who plays football and does track. It does definitely move oddly which could help hand eye coordination and sudden changes in direction. It was hard to bounce on a carpet, not much better on linoleum. We tried it on macadam and that didn't seem great for bouncing either but did get a lot of unpredictable movement. I think it might work best on surface like a gym floor or racquetball court where you can really throw it with force. I'm not much of an athlete , but my son thought it would be good for training someone who plays softball or baseball to get grounders. I'm saying I'd recommend this purely based on someone who this would be helpful. Your average person isn't going to really find a need for this and doesn't have an appeal to the general masses beyond hand eye coordination, training, or ground ball catching in baseball or softball I personally would not buy it for myself, but maybe for an athlete.

The Athletic reaction ball isn't my favorite. I wanted to love it but I just didn't see how it works. Every time I threw the ball, it just bounced low to the ground and landed a short distance away. It is made durability and strong but I am thinking it needs to be more bouncy a bit.

I spoke of the Athletic Works Reaction Training Ball excitedly and tore open the brown biodegradable “envelope” it came in the same day. I explained it to my SO and couldn't open the box. When I could later, I actually paid attention to what was opening. Here is when my blonde roots are so visible… I pop the ball out, surprised by the lobular shape, I turn the open box in my hand to read it. I burst into laughter and call to my husband to announce, “so that thingie I thought was a hand held massage, roller, lymphatic drainage type ball combo deal? It IS really a playing ball, for training since the bounce is unpredictable, it does crazy like a Kong dog toy.” OMG Ok, well, I can definitely see a lot of quick sharp moves tons of changing directions running for this ball. Seems plausible for training, so cool concept. It is just not for me since I'm so uncoordinated I do not do sports with equipment and I no longer have a dog. Bounce along!
