The Blitzball is a
safe, lightweight, plastic baseball toy that is ideal for players ages
eight and up. The Blitzball has 72 hexagonal sides that deflect
air in all directions when thrown. The flat-edged surface design
reduces wind resistance for speed and accuracy, while maximizing ball
spin for curving action (up to seven feet). The Blitzball has been
designed for superior grip and control and maximum speed, curve and
distance.
INDIVIDUAL CATEGORY RATINGS

Wiffleballers beware! There
has never been a ball quite like the Blitzball!
Now...it does take a bit to get used to throwing to
really whip a great curve, but once you've mastered it -
watch out! You have never seen a curve thrown
quite like this. The opposite holds true for
hitting as well. Step up to the plate and wait for
the curve - our reviewers felt confident that once they
got the hang of it they could hit it out of the park! |

A plastic ball made durable?
You bet! Designed with a small pin-sized hole that
keeps it from denting, our review team hit the stuffing
out of this ball without any damage! Plus, unlike
an everyday wiffleball, its bright green coloring helped
the group locate it after a deep homerun. |

So...it is a ball...but the
hexagonal sides and neon yellow help this Blitzball
stand out from the rest. It's simple, but it just
looks cool! |

The Blitzball is pretty much just a
wiffleball with some added bells and whistles - be them
some super cool bells and whistles. It has crazy
movement which is exactly what it is designed to
do...so...is it functional? Absolutely! |
|
|
Ask a review team how much a product
should cost and you'll usually end up with a wide
variety or every member dead on - and the Blitzball was
no exception. Our entire team guessed $5 - and
believe it or not - the actual pricing is less! It
doesn't get better than that! |
|
|
The Blitzball is a ball used for
backyard fun or wiffleball. So...by that
alone...it is not a true original. It does have
groundbreaking design and super-durability that does
kick up the points here, but not enough to get five
stars from the team. |

Think a toy has to have a lot of
flashing lights or sounds to get a high rating from
our group? If you said yes - you'd be wrong!
The Blitzball takes a little bit of practice to
master, but once you have it down, quite frankly,
it's awesome! And...it doesn't cost a lot!
Fun to play plus affordable equals five stars! |
