  • how do you seal the ball? I don't see any duct tape on your other balls

  • must have been the angle... yes they all have duct tape on them. I typically like to clean off the "V" opening first, run a bead of krazy glue along the cut, and then use a good 3 or 4 strips of about 7 inches of gorilla duct tape. I haven't had a problem yet.

  • you go on a bit mate

  • I was afraid of that... just getting into the whole video and podcast thing. Hopefully I'll be more confident and direct as I get more experience with it. Thanks for your feedback.

  • I made three of these but one busted when I tried to do slams with it any suggestions.

  • You're a braver man than I am!  Although I believe mine are pretty sturdy (mostly because of the smaller hole) I haven't used them for slamming. I use a store bought med ball for that. However, if you have a rebounder or a 2" thick floor mat, that may lesson the impact to the ball. You can also do slams with sandbags, and they are a lot easier to reinforce with multiple bags. Good luck!
