Squash balls are filled with inert gas. When cold, they bounce like stonesβbarely above the floor. This physics quirk frustrates beginners who can't keep rallies going, making them quit before mastering fundamentals.
Temperature dramatically affects bounce height
Struggling to hit? Start here. This ball is 40% bouncier and doesn't require high heat to work. Perfect for beginners learning the basics.
The Competition Standard. Very low bounce. It requires consistent, hard hitting to stay warm. Only use this once you can sustain long rallies.
Continuous Volleys: Hit the ball hard against the wall for 5 minutes to generate internal friction.
If you can't keep a rally going to warm the ball, put it on the floor and roll it firmly under your shoe for 2 minutes. Don't worry, squash balls are incredibly durableβyou won't break it!
