Franklin X-40 Outdoor Pickleball: Reliable outdoor pickle ball in weather above about 45 degrees F. Below 45 degrees, balls fracture quickly, There are better alternatives to Franklin pickleballs if using in cold weather. The colder the temperature, the quicker they fracture.

Franklin X-40 pickleballs : Based on cost Franklin C-40 pickleballs are good but they don’t seem to be durable enough. They crack and become wobbly more quickly than my friends and I would like.

I dont need 100 pickleballs but the franklin X is all we use and I knew many people in my club would want them at $2.00 a piece so I picked up some extra to benefit everybody I know

Pickleballs: The balls were as advertised. 100 balls ? a few of them cracked upon my first few times using them but only a few. I have a Pickleball machine and noticed five or six ball were warped not sure if it was the pressure from the Pickle Ball machine or the contact from the paddle. Other than those few minor things I love everything else. The staff when placing the order was very nice and polite 10/10 the balls I give a 8/10. The price was very reasonable. What made me happy the most was

Franklin X40 pickleballs : Quality issues. Balls are not holding up like they did a year ago. 3 cracked today in play outside. These had been played with on 3 days for approximately 2 1/2 hours each day. This is the second week in a row with breakages. I have purchased from you previously but have concerns over product issues I am experiencing with the 40’s.
