PCKL Optic Speed 26 Indoor Pickleball

I bought the blue ball because on a particular indoor court, they put up red curtain dividers. They have a light colored court surface. So orange or yellow or lime colors don't work. We're left with blue. The quality if more than good enough and the ball meets all requirements.

I had ordered these awhile back and had just gotten to use these balls the other day. I was impressed at how the ball looked on a shiny gymnasium floor. I had a much easier time seeing it, and the ball performed well on the indoor courts. I am impressed by the durability, and I am able to get plenty of spin off of the balls. I definitely recommend these balls for indoor play.

This is the fastest ball I play with and I like it a lot. I have played about 25 games with it and have only played with one ball from the box. At this point, I have two minor concerns. Sometimes I play on a court that has a blue wall, and the ball is hard to see. The other concern is durability. While it appears to be exceptionally durable, I examined it under a bright light yesterday and found four hairline cracks. None were longer than a quarter inch, but they did extend all the way through the plastic. Too small to photograph.

As the weather got colder I had to take my pickleball indoors. We are playing on an indoor basketball court, I was shocked at how hard it is to see they yellow balls that we use outdoors.I knew that I had to find an alternative. I found these and thought I would give them a try.These are very easy to see, I read that blue and red are the best colors. I still want to try red balls to compare, but the difference between blue and yellow is night and day. I can track these balls without any issues on the gym floor indoors.The balls have a softer grippier type texture, in play I haven't noticed any difference and balls perform well. The balls are holding up great so far, if one were to break now I would feel like I have gotten adequate use for the value. But with no signs of wearing out soon I'm guessing I will easily get through the season with these balls.

These balls are made of a thicker material than the indoor balls that came in my starter pickleball set, but also some how lighter! The blue color has been easier to see indoors (we play on a basketball court in the activity center) than the orange ones I had originally. My pickleball group and I have really enjoyed them so far. Would totally repurchase and have thought about ordering the outdoor ones too.

Very disappointed in this product. I expected more. I love the green outdoor PCKL balls but the blue indoor ones don't last. Love playing with the blue ones indoors as it is easier to see on yellow varnished gym floors. They have a great bounce and are very responsive for strong intermediate players who play several times per week. But who can afford to buy new balls every week? I thought it was a fluke when one cracked a few weeks ago after playing with it for a few hours per day for a few weeks. But then 2 more cracked within a few hours of playing in the gym. They are not supposed to be one time use and then disposable balls. I'm careful not to keep my equipment in the car during the winter so it's not because they are brittle due to the cold. It seems this is a known problem based on my review of all the customer reviews. PCKL DO BETTER! Am trying another brand.

Nice to change up the color of the ball for indoor play. Most people like it a lot. A few think it's hard to see. I like it and durability is good too.

Great visibility and bonce but after only five games the ball broke. Very disappointed
