PP40 balls: Purchased PP40 balls from PBcentral based on test results from PBscience.org

Outdoor Pickleballs: We’ve tried a number of different brands and types of outdoor balls and, so far, these are the best both in terms of play and durability.
Pro Penn 40 Pickleball: I was gifted a 3 pack of Pro Penn 40 pickle balls. I am a pretty serious player and have mostly played with either the Franklin X-40 or the Onix Pure Fuse.

Pro Penn 40 Outdoor Pickleballs: Received theses to demo and review. Really appreciate Pickleball Central offering this demo. Been playing with the balls for not quite two weeks. Thus far, we love them, playing in moderate weather 50 - 60's. They bounce true and are holding up well.
Durable, High-Quality Ball: I have been playing for several years now and have had the opportunity to play with quite a few outdoor balls, Onyx, Franklin, Joola, to name a few. This is the first time that I have been provided a demo ball and want to thank Pickleball Central for providing them.

Great balls: Been playing with them for a week, so far I love them. Nice bright yellow instead of a dull yellow, bouncy. They have a rubbery feel so they are unlikely to crack in cold weather though I haven’t used them long enough to testify.
