Big upvote for you... never stick it in dry!

​@Hinata A dry needle can damage or push the valve inside the bladder of the ball

@Hinata the thing you pump the air into :D If you wanna check how it looks search for "ball bladder" in Google Images

@Hinata saliva is fine, but it's kinda gross. Water is fine too, but it's not ideal, at least in my opinion. The best option is to use something like NDLSC (Glycerin)

Moist it just with water?

Everyone has a special preference :) I like the Mikasa ball hands down. A Molten ball also plays really nice but I don't get the right feel when I take the ball in reception.

Hey i have a question... does this ball good for concrete floor? That have a little jagged surface?

@@jkjgraphicstudio to be completely honest I don't know, I've only ever played in sand and on gym courts. But I belive it should be fine, those balls are quite durable. Mine is still holding up really well.

@@mizumally how long have you been using that ball? 5 years? I've bought mva 330 last year.. but i don't really like it.. so im changing ball, is the v5m5000 good for daily use?

Where do you buy the mikasa? Is it original?

any changes / recommendations now?

For me bumping is easy but sometimes I bump it too hard and it goes out

The blue/yellow Mikasa ball is my favorite lol

Well everyone has its favorite one i guess but for me it feels like its never falling down to the ground once i hit the Mikasa. Whenever i serve this one it lands around 4 or 5 meters behind the field while this molten is going down around 1 or 2 meters before the rear line of the field. ^^

The Mikasa ball really tends to float a lot more than the Molten one. I think this is due to the design of the Mikasa vs the Molten. The Mikasa is so smooth and only dotted with golf ball like divots that probably allow it to float a lot more, whereas the Molton ball is completely covered with a hexagonal net of grip with makes it so much easier to put a top spin on it.

yeah you are totally right thats exactly that what im thinking i can serve better with the green red white ball than with the mikasa one

i'm a setter and i play better with molten

Fuckrap Music not calling anyone cheap, but if that’s the case they may be replicas

Yeah mikasa will fuck up your forearms a lot worse. Molten feels like so nice in comparison

@@ashbhattarai9672 well I got used to both now

@@tysonparashyniak-doll7429 ur right

@@ashbhattarai9672 make sure you break in your mikasas(well just any genuine leather balls lol)

@@dinofilm6131 is the prices different depending on countries?

try amazon. change the country to US.

@@jestonyaguilar9069 LOL, that's the last thing you wanna do because the US market for Amazon fakes is literally the most lucrative (retail prices, very, very little policing, and inventory between larger retailers gets mixed in with every small vendors stuff)

Start by just watching for setter tendencies. Those she tend to set certain hitters when she gets bad passes, or does run the middle when she gets good passes. Those her body position give away where she is setting, because a lot of setters do certain thing when setting certain positions. I.E. Micah Christenson (the USA national team setter) tends to rotate his body to set the opposite hitter. Read blocking is not really about completely blocking a spike, it's more about getting at least a touch or smothering the hitters' hitting options. What changes a read block to a commit block (where you completely commit to blocking a certain hitter) is when you start anticipating the setters set, you only really start doing this after carefully watching the setter for multiple points and learning her body patterns. It usually takes me around half a set (20 or so points) or even a whole set for me to start really reading the setter well enough to start committing on certain hitters. Overall, you just have to start looking out for setter tendencies.

Gary Ying THANKS A LOT!😊

How

lols its only hard probably because it was over pumped and brand new. The ball takes about a 5-6 hours of play to break in. Once it breaks in, its so much better than other balls including the Mikasa FIVB yellow and blue ball.

@@SnailKingGY I wish that were the case, but it's not. I got it pressure checked and it is properly inflated and 4.5psi. Feels like playing with a basketball it's so hard and rubber-like. I use it myself after matches to practice serves and never softened up.

I also got V5M1500 in my garage and it is so hard and heavy comparing to V5M5000. Trust me, the second model I included is light and doesn't hurt your arms at all.

I'm pretty sure beach ones should work as they are pretty durable, the best beach balls are the Wilson AVP OPTX and the Mikasa vls300

I wouldn't consider it a less ball to practice with. You should practice with whatever ball you can, but if you are preparing for an official tournament, try to find that ball they use and play around with it to get a feel of it.

I actually prefer the mikasa over the Molten, so IMO: no

Just an FYI but the model used in Olympic/FIVB Games is the MVA 200 not 330. It’s slightly different, for example the 200 has little dimples all over it and is made from a different material , also the panel seams are less noticeable.

It should be the same, just different colour and text, as he said at the start.

Molten all the way

SimpleSim its easier to track on camera

Technically yes, but this is not an outdoor ball. It's meant for indoor use. If you mostly play outdoor, then you should buy a beach volleyball even if you're not playing on the beach.

could you recommend something i want a durable and fairly heavy ball i don't like the light ones

Wilson balls arent really that good, well some are ok 👌 for the price, but if you play more indoor, buy the mikasa ones or the molten ones

Hey, it'll be available in alllvolleyball.com in May!! And if you use my code ELEVATE5 you'll get 5%OFF.

You can only buy it in online international stores, i got one on Toby's but i only got the V5M2700

Awtumn psw I literally just got one delivered yesterday, because I used the life out of my last one. Amazing ball

Tyrone from wii sports oh then that sounds amezing! Thank you :)

Awtumn psw glad to help😁

Sure buddy. This ball is officially approved by FIVB vball federation. And this ball is official game ball in countries like Japan, Italy, USA, etc. I actually prefer Molten over Mikasa

@@Wayzerr thanks for the answer

I know this comment is a year old but as a regular beach player here are various balls I've seen/played with often. Wilson AVP OPTX game ball (Very popular in most US domestic tourneys/has grip, easier to add top spin) Mikasa VLS300/BV550C game balls (not as popular in US, but very popular internationally in FIVB events. Not as grippy as OPTX/floats more) Mikasa King of The Beach official ball (Used in King Of The Court events, grippy texture - if you like the AVP OPTX but not the expensive price tag try this imo) Molten BV5000/V5B5000 (FIVB approved, decent grip/not super floaty. Least fav out of the bunch but still a solid ball imo good budget price

ship? Surely they sell in a sports shop in Australia

Like football balls and basketball balls??? 🤦‍♂️

@@kebinyo in Spanish we do say that, like “balón de futbol”, “balón de basket”

Heyo, I am looking to buy a volleyball that is kind of hard on the outside bcos I don’t want it to peel and crack even if I play it on concrete/rough surfaces. What ball would you recommend?

Yup😭

He said 'collegiate'
