Questions & Answers
There is a camera clip on it
There is an attached rope that is held in place by an easy-to-access metal hook.
Using your own knot is the only way to adjust it.
The soft layer of the ball basically consists of foam rubber which reduces its lifespan when left outside. It's ready for play at any time of year because I leave it outside all year round. Replacing every two years is all you need to do. Keeping it in storage when it's not being used might extend its shelf life for three to four years, but then you can't use it when the kids are around. Honestly, this is by far the best tetherball I have found and I'll probably buy another once I'm done with this one. Hope you have a great day!

It had lasted 2 years when it was left outside all year and now that it has had to be left outside year round, it is too difficult to The strap vs. the strap is really nice. This is a recessed metal hook to attach a ball to a Our hands don't get as damaged as they used to. Tachikara Fireball was better than this one but after you catch the metal hook a few times, you might want to try it. It's perfect for kids of all ages if they're supervised.
There was only a six-week lifespan for this tetherball. The seams of the ball were ripped apart, exposing the rubber ball. There is no way to fix this. You can get the Mikasa Ultra Soft Shell for a discount. Since it has been on our playground over a year, it has lasted many years.
We have tried other tetherballs, but this one is the best. I've also tried two others that we were told would be soft, but weren't. I cannot say for sure if durability will last. Try to keep it from cracking when not in use by covering it with an old cushion cover.
It has been weeks since my dog has chased, tossed, pulled and pulled this ball around, but it still does not seem to be broken. Initially, I was hesitant to get it since it had a canvas strap glued on instead of a metal clip with a ring for a rope loop like other tether balls I've tried. But it seems to work fine. If your dog bites and pops a ball then don't buy this. The grippy texture is great for mouthing but he isn't one to bite and pop a ball.
It's all over with the new ball for the grandkids.
It's a nice gift for little ones. It's the 2nd one I've bought.
The toy was bought for our daughter with low muscle tone so she could play tether ball with her older brothers. This is a favorite of all the kids Those who are teenagers too. As a result of the grip, she is able to grab on to it more easily. Although it is still as bright as the day I hung it a month ago, I imagine that it will fade in our hot desert sun this summer (but the heat has not yet hit us effectively yet) but if it does, I would buy another one next summer. So far, I haven't been able to find one that doesn't fade/get brittle!.
Having this ball in his hand is a big hit with him. It was the day he showed me the ball for their tetherball game that they put it up at his school. When compared to the traditional ball that left my son with bruises on his arm and hands, this one is incredibly soft. I'm so proud of my son - he is a beast! It is great to have it available on our tetherball now.
