Information on this product

SIL-X LIGHT was born from the combination of the soft shell of the SRX (SOFT RUSSIAN) and the silicone oil filling used for SIL-X. More and more professional jugglers have requested this type of combination in recent years, and their reaction has been so enthusiastic that we simply had to add this ball to our range! SIL-X LIGHT turns out to be very similar to Russian balls in terms of weight ratio between shell and filling, but avoiding the typical behavior of balls filled with sand or seeds of various kinds. So a light ball that is perfect for resistance training with large numbers and is at the same time easy for body rolls and foot stops. It rolls on the floor a little more than classic roller balls but does not go too far. The soft shell is very pleasant to manipulate and sensibly helps with picking up many balls in one hand.

Description


SHELL

Our shells are made of 100% Phthalates-free soft PVC. They are available in 5 sizes and 2 different thicknesses for a total of 8 options. Extremely elastic, durable and easy to wash with any type of detergent. When you aren't juggling them, we recommend to keep your balls stored in a separate bag since PVC can easily get permanently stained getting in contact with inks from newspaper or pens and markers. SOFT shells are approx. 2 mm thick. As soft as beanbags, they are more forgiving on collisions and tend to roll much less on the floor. These are the shells used for MMX, SRX, TTS, TT1 and SIL-X Light balls. ELASTIC shells are approx. 4 mm thick. They feel solid, precise and allow to work easier on head and body rolls. These are the shells used for SIL-X and HYBRID balls. SURFACE FINISH 62-67-70-75 mm MATTE (soft touch) 78 mm GLOSSY (ultra grip)

FILLING

The value 1/2 is just indicative for under-filled balls. The actual amount of filling you will receive it is what we recommend and use in the manufacturing of our most popular juggling balls. It can vary from a minimum of 1/3 to a maximum of 1/2 of the internal shell volume depending on the shell's diameter and thickness. Every single ball is digitally weighed with a high precision device.

The plugs can be removed allowing to adjust the weight of the balls and to re inflate them in case of need (like after a flight during which the difference in pressure and temperature in the aircraft's hold causes a "deflation" of the ball with consequent dents in the surface).
