Mint Cannonballz™ 26 Hole Indoor Pickleball balls 100-Pack (Fluorescent Ember)

Amber color is the best indoor ball for wooden gym floors, provides the best contrast, so much easier to see than any other color balls we have ever used. Ball feels heavier & harder, atteibutes that higher skilled players prefer, excellent playability for an indoor ball, I think this is actually a Franklin X26 ball but in an easier to see amber color. Penn/Head & Srikel offer similar amber color balls, however, their balls are soft & light & don't bounce.

Easy to See indoors, they skid a little on our gym floor. We have 9 indoor Pickleball courts taped out on a gym floor. I'm always trying new balls for visibility and durability. We've found that the Fluorescent Ember (Lava) color is easiest to see indoors with the lighting. We used to use the Penn/Head 26 Ember balls, but they were quite soft and slow. I've tried all the colors of the Franklin 26 indoor balls, but none of them were easy to see. Most recently we were using the Onix Fuse Orange balls - they were faster than the Penn 26's, but a little dull in color (poor visibility), and the Fuse ball broke All. The. Time. And they were expensive. The Mint Sports Ember 'Cannonballz' work quite well and we will be switching to them when our supply of Fuse balls is exhausted. They are easy to see, fast for medium to advanced play, and seem to be durable. Yes, we do crack them eventually, but we use them for 4-5 hours every Monday to Friday. About the only drawback I've noticed is that the balls can 'skid' a little on the wood gym floor, especially with hard-fast hits, but you do adjust to the ball action, and play continues. The design of these balls seems very similar to the Franklin X-26's, I'll have to do some measurements... I wouldn't be surprised if Mint licensed that color from them.

Pleased with the balls’ color & durability
