Technical information:
The story behind this ball: Our design team created this hybrid ball after observing football players in action on the pitch. This ball is a hybrid because its design combines the comfort of a machine-stitched ball with the durability of a hand-sewn one (the seams are on the inside). We've also used a special bladder (2 km of thread is wrapped around it) to ensure durable inflation and better sphericity. ; The durability of our balls: We've developed a tool for characterising the durability of our balls. Defects that appear in use are identified and assessed through a series of laboratory tests. These tests enable us to compare the overall strength of our footballs with those available on the market. Our aim: to have the most durable products on the market. ; Lighter than a regular ball: This ball is considered light because it is about 15% lighter than a regular size 5 football. What difference does that make? Thanks to its weight, young football players can kick or head the ball more comfortably. It's also easier to aim and execute long passes. ; How big is it? What's the circumference?: The size of this ball is between 68.0 cm and 70.0 cm (size 5). ; A "round" ball?: Here's how we test sphericity: Average measured variation: 1.8% max (FIFA Basic certification). We measure the football's sphericity at 4500 different points and then examine any differences. If the discrepancy is greater than 1.8% (FIFA Basic Standard), our engineers are tasked with improving the sphericity to ensure a consistent bounce.
