yeah

who wouldn't have the balls to use their ball

​@@ViQRoy89 proof of concept

eff yes. and in a street game on blacktop too.

Please sir give me a iPhone 15 Pro max

This got me 😂

apple vision basically just a tiny tv but on your nose LOL

Both products are priced ridiculously

@@Bobby56288what would be a proper price for first of its kind innovations?

For a new tech first gen basketball $150 Max.

To make it probably 5 bucks. To KNOW how to make it, 2495 bucks.

@@NotTheFBI_OFFICIAL lol or scan a basketball and infill with hexagons

Assure?

No shit!

@@YouPube_X no fr 😂

But imagine adapting to it

It’s probably just a proof of concept for now that a ball without air can imitate the physics of a basketball. But like what the reply said above me, players will adapt and arguably become better due to the increased sensitivity of sound through training.

Sound is definitely something people use as an advantage but i don’t see any basketball players having a hard time keeping their eye off of the ball when the crowd is screaming their heads off. I think it’s an unimportant feature and can be easily overcome.

I think that's why the airless basketball is fun--because then it poses a whole new challenge to conquer. Idk, maybe just me. Would be fun to see kids people play with it kind of like how people now consider ping-pong as a real separate sport.

UKposts reviewers: jack of all trades, masters of none.

yeah its wild that i havent seen anyone actualy use it

well its too expensive to play with it i think i wouldnt want to ruin something worth that much

@@MaTTaN6yeah but I think it’d be fine in an indoor court or something yk

​@@MaTTaN6 even just a couple of shots is better then nothing

Give it a week or 2. Copies will be all over the net.

Chinese are watching….. you’ll be able to buy it for 2.99$ soon.

the people who complain will find something else to complain. you have to understand some people actually enjoy complaining. nothing can be done about it. yesterday it was the noise, today is something else and tomorrow will be another third thing. they just want to complain about something (anything) because they enjoy doing it and there's nothing that can be done about it.

@@Behroozplt It's $2.99 not 2.99$ get it right it's not that hard.

​@@Noobmaster-yc2pf He's probably from EU relax

I be was looking for this comment 🤣ong tuff asf

@@matthewshadd4083 Bro same here, I was thinkin surely someone has commented on that. Shit is mad distracting bc its so gorgeous

Too bad seems to be collecting dust though. Should make a video dusting it off on the road!

bro i immediately spotted it lol

What's up with the cars they've had back there the past what, couple years now? Always see cool shit, whether from techy/EV or enthusiast standpoint, but I've never found (or looked to be fair) any other videos around them?

for 2500

quite the school budget

Just $50000 for 20 basketballs

Now all you’re gonna hear is screaming kids.. 😂

Creating problems here

You don't have a corporate GTR?

@@indubitably_ Nah, I didn't fill out the Form R32

bro wants his 4 minutes back 😭

@socialexe6228 was looking for this comment 😌

8:10 when he bounces the damn ball

This should’ve been a 5 minute video

@@kite8680 😂😂

oh lordy maybe more consistent? Steph like ok let it rain!

Shoes squeek*

That moment the holes get Play-Doh'd from a fresh dog-pile or it gets gravel in it.

It’s to take extraneous noises out of the game so you can hear the trash talk more clearly.

That would actually be epic!

That'll be big in the Japanese market

like in tennis

currys are basically silent

Same, but it looks dirty and it's bothering me.

Although fanboys over rate them, it still is an iconic beauty. Car people will all gather under this comment.

@@smackette I happen to own 1994 R32 GTR, 1995 Supra and few other cars. I don't think that they are overrated and I'm making videos about them.

@@1MTEDDY Both of the most overrated cars, but this is my opinion. They aren't bad cars at all they just have received this JDM godly status that has gone way too far.

@@smackette They are great looking and the best tuning platforms that you can find with a wide variety of parts available for any power level you want. They are overrated if they are stock and unmodified. But if you spend another 30-50k on parts, then the fun begins.

Collectors item always means insanity

there's 75 of them, it's a collectors item

NOT if you are the NBA

Same as 3k for apple goggles

Think of all the air you will save though. Practically pays for itself.

I mean it's still a cool idea, balls can't pop or deflate. So there's that atleast lol

ball popping or deflating? or the annoying neighbour that complains about the noise?

@@CallyWasHereOfficial This is a very expensive way to deal with those problems lol, this product was designed for just marketing nothing more

​@@dipper5835it's not a market item, so of course it won't have retail pricing. Gen 1 is about innovation and prototype testing, the next step is cost effectiveness, making sure it's more consumer friendly.

@dipper5835 The reason it's expensive right now is the rarity, as far as we know they haven't produced many or found an efficient production method. I'm sure they'll still be a pretty steep price if they do make it to store shelves, but for some people it might be worth it.

1. Depending on the plastic they use it should stay fairly intact and useable, jjust like any other plastic ball 2. The reason a wiffleball curves is 1 side doesnt have holes so it creates friction. Since this has holes everywhere it wont curve. 3. Yes :)

Dunno about the durability but presumably the benefit is it'll never need pumping. The tire industry has been trying to work towards airless tires for years and they're used on the lunar roving vehicle. It 100% would destroy the aerodynamics. So I really couldn't see something like this being used professionally in it's current form.

Its crazy how your comment is the only one talking about the cracks lmao

Noticed them as well. They're also visible at 13:44. That thing is broken.

it would still float as its plastic .

Might get trypophobia drawing the ball face. 🤣

I thought Toms Wilson was a volleyball in this case. Am I trippin? Didn't he have a volleyball? I'm sure they will make the soccer ball football tennis ball every other ball to follow 🤷🏽‍♂️, but I get the sarcasm 👍🏽

lol youre not tripping it was indeed a volleyball@@kingisrael1532

​@@pralayaryanbeing plastic doesn't mean it floats. There's a lot of different plastics 😅

Transitional..? wtf do you mean by a “transitional” ball 🤦🏻‍♂️ trying to sound smart

lmao he really did try@@X11CHASE

​@@X11CHASE... Go stick your head in the dirt outside.

​@@X11CHASE ofc he tryna sound smart, blud bought an nft 🥶🥶

You sound like my dad when smart phones came out.

Not a vlog but ok

what about how it spins or moves through the air etc... ?

i prefer combustion motorcycles over electric ones. because i like the sound. same applies here for me.

Yeah, wait until rocks and dirt get stuck inside that fucking ball when your playing on a blacktop court.

@@denizkendirci a silent motorcycle is just asking for trouble, we make them loud for a reason. I want to try an e-moto but only if I can try one on a closed roadway or track.

Could really throw off players who listen to what's happening. Makes passes a bit more sneaky. Defenders will have to keep their head on a swivel, which will leave openings for break aways. Plus, watching a game with one of those balls will truly take away from the experience, just imagine watching a game where all you hear is the squeaking of shoes and a bunch grunting and panting. Someone will be watching a ball game in their room, and the people they live with will think their watching gay orgy porn. Then the crowd cheers... "damn, I didn't know they did that shit with an audience" 😂

I believe it's a green screen.

Insane studio, and yet Lew’s vids are still underwhelming. Fancy ass studio but dude can’t even be bothered to shoot the basketball……. 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Its bruce waynes garage

@@tober7141its not, its real, inspired by the batman lair he made an entire build series on it

@@BEAST.420G 🤡

Thank you for not even bothering to shoot the damn ball! Beyond insightful… 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

That was my first idea when this popped up. Finding a way to get a nice cover over it to get the feel of an actual ball but still no need to pump.

Now we're talking

Fairly simple fix

​@chrisjfox8715 Not necessarily. It might have to be engineered differently, it was designed to have air pass through it, that is why it is so quiet.

@@louismalinak5563 the main sell of the quiet is in the bounce. The outer skin doesn't have to be thick necessarily

Can’t deflate it for when traveling. Good luck fitting that in your suitcase!

Too bad they don't show how it would actually feel/behave in an actual game. Do the holes change the feel of it coming off the hand and fingertips of the player causing it (or the player) to behave differently. Maybe the holes change the trajectory of the ball in flight due to different aerodynamics? I would have to see it in actual game play.

From what I have heard the grip is significantly worse

Just like the real thing...I was able to play with one before the launch.

@@troykindle4539 tested in windy conditions? Hoping this could change the street games one day.

the air will go through the mesh tho, so I don think it will mess with the accuracy

@@MrMartin48705 Its the same weight as a regular match ball. It'll be fine

@@MrMartin48705im fairly certain in windy conditions a regular basketball would be arguably worse. airless one has holes in it for the wind to pass through, and its the same weight as the normal one.

exactly my thoughts. I m wondering how it behaves on long shots or on curved shots if it were for soccer for example...my common sense tells me it will be different and would have a small learning curve

Because he’s at the point where he needs to makes 15 minute video about a ball lol

They made a trilogy of movies about a ring whats your point..

And not even test shooting or passing

bro his whole channel is a flex….

what do you mean?

May I ask what knife/knives he has (reviewed) that you rate highly? Thanks :-)

Nope

I was thinking the same thing....would you get the golf ball effect from all of the holes to the point that you could see movement side to side from rotational force

It has holes so it's not going to lift

The car looks dusty

Nah. It’s just because he’s focusing through the holes. Visual illusion. You can see when it wiggles they disappear.

I don’t see it

@@JustDoinIt26 after the camera focusing there does seem to be what looks like a crack in the middle of screen, a little downward

@@BenTroxellyou might be right my bro I just watched it back zoomed it at 0.25x speed. I just thought they disappeared cos it was out of focus.

@@Its-Ghoul I did the same thing haha

Why would Lew even touch on that subject? Not like it was on anyone’s mind… 🙄

@@BEAST.420G He didn't touch on that subject right? I didn't think I missed it. Sorry, sometimes sarcasm is hard to pick out.
