Killerspin 4 Star Hardball 40+ (White)

I have sent back for refund… what was sent was not 4 star competition balls… instead, 1 star practice balls sent.

This is a really nice set of balls, a tad expensive but I really like the chalk white color of the plastic they are using. They seem to play quite nice, the quality is pretty nice overall, I don't know how long they will last as one of them already has taken on some damage and will probably be unplayable soon. If they were a bit cheaper I would be all over these but for around the same price you can find balls that will definitely take more of a beating. The color really sets these apart for me though as the chalk white really pops compared to the color of the table... So I like to have some fresh ones on hand if I'm playing a special game. Still gonna give them 5 stars because the only "downfall" is when you price compare with some other high end brands.

Killerspin has been one of my favorite TT supply brands since 2010. These are their new balls that are completely made of plastic and a little harder than the now outdated 40mm celluloid balls - all in compliance with the ITTF new standards for Tournament leve TT balls.I love the all black logo printed on each ball. The balls have a nice slightly-gritty texture to them - not smooth like the old celluloid balls. I feel like my sidespin serves grip the ball better and the ball trajectory is better on each bounce.Been playing with them about 1-2 hours a day for a couple of weeks and they are still going strong - nice bounce, grip/texture, and no dents or breakage from lots of looping and smashes (both on the table and walls lol). I want to buy a whole box of these but since they are such good quality, that can get expensive...BTW, the price on amazon for 3 balls is almost DOUBLE the price on the KS website and other online retailers - just FYI.Yes, and these balls have a different sound, higher pitched than the normal sound from celluloid balls we are used to but nevertheless sound good. I can’t get enough of the sound of TT. I recommend trying these out, these are the only premium US brand TT balls that are comparable to the butterfly A40+ and G40+, Nittaku 40+, etc.Blade: Stiga Pro CarbonRubber: Stiga Mantra M on both sides

Great

these balls are heavier than the regulars and we love these heavier balls, it is just so expensive. only has three balls for one order.
