The science behind the Smarthockey Ball is more is more than most realize and it shows up immediately in your off-ice stick handling sessions. At first glance, the Smarthockey Ball elicits thoughts of what could be so special about that? That thought quickly fades once the ball hits your stick. How could such a generic looking weighted ball handle so smoothly with a quick stick handle on almost any surface? The Smarthockey Ball was built with an answer to the common concerns of weight, bounce and roll you find with office training balls/pucks. The inner core and surlyn cover of the Smarthockey Ball are like a to top D pairing on a Stanley Cup winning team….they work together and produce great results on the ice.
Walk in any rink prior to a game or any legit off-ice training area and you should see a Smarthockey Ball rolling around on the concrete, rubber mats or tile floor. Regardless of location, the Smarthockey Ball gives a puck weight feel on the stick making it a perfect warm-up tool for any age & skill level.
