Smart Hockey - 6oz Stickhandling Ball - Neon Orange
The Smart Hockey 6oz Ball helps players develop a "feel" for the puck and super "soft" hands for better stickhandling, shooting and passing control.
The patented 2-piece dynamic core technology is the only hockey training ball engineered to accurately simulate the weight, bounce and slide of an ice hockey puck so players can transition from off-ice training to on-ice play without noticing a difference. The solid core covered by Smart Hockey's new dimpled Surlyn shell eliminates any pliancy or "smushing" of the ball between the stick and the training surface. At just under 6oz (141g), its added "incremental weight" caused by the friction of off-ice training surfaces simulates the exact weight of a 6oz puck. The combination of the shell and proprietary steel core matches the "dull" bounce of a puck's vulcanized rubber. The tear resistant Surlyn shell rolls as quickly as a puck slides on a fresh sheet of ice. Finally, the diameter of the ball is 1.68" making the profile lower than Smart Hockey's "Original" off-ice ball which helps players develop even faster, softer hands than before.
