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 lasting 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. ; Too light? Too heavy? The weight is standardised...: This ball weighs between 350 g and 390 g (size 4) and complies with official FIFA standards.
FIFA Basic approved. ; How big is it? What's the circumference?: This ball measures between 63.5 cm and 66.0 cm (size 4) and complies with official FIFA standards.
FIFA Basic approved. ; 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 ...
