## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this official size for men and/or women?**
A: Offical basketball size for men is 29.5 inches in circumference. For women it is typically 29 inches. For youth (boys and girls 8-12) it is usually 28.5 or 29 inches.

**Q: My ball needs air can I pump it up with a regular pump and would that take away from the weight?**
A: You can pump it up
It’s not going to effect the ball

**Q: As a 21 looking to improve ball handling skills for more cross overs and in general better ball control, should I get the heavier ball or smaller?**
A: Smaller! The bigger ones are for the more advanced! I use the small one and you have to remember it is smaller than a basketball but it helps with dribbling drills and getting used to the motion

**Q: The ball's inflation hole is too shallow for the pump needle. I don't want to poke it all the way through. How deep should the inflation hole be?**
A: Make sure you lubricate the needle...then insert it about halfway inside the ball

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by G***A on 27 March 2022*

A lighter than typical ball may seem counter intuitive, but this ball is the real deal. It is very light and presents a challenge to handle. It is sturdy and fast handling. It challenges your reflexes. The difference between handling this ball and an official weight ball is obvious. If you use the Sklz Light ball to practice dribbling and hand to hand ball handling, you will see an improvement in your ball handling skills.
