Smart Hockey Stickhandling Ball

#1 selling training ball in North America. Replicates an ice hockey puck's WEIGHT, BOUNCE, SLIDE and CONTACT HEIGHT. For years European and Soviet players have used wooden stickhandling balls before games and practices to develop lightening quick, soft hands. In 2001, Smarthockey introduced the Smarthockey Training Ball which used space-aged materials to replicate an ice hockey puck’s weight, bounce, slide and contact height for off-ice stickhandling, shooting and passing development. The patented dual density core has a proprietary outer shell that is made of a heat resistant Surlyn material that doesn't """"smush"""" or become pliant on hot pavement which makes it perfect for training on any surface. The ball works so well that in just one year it's already being used by 22 NHL teams and 35 D1 US Collegiate teams before games/practices and for off-ice training. The ball was used by the Russian National Team in the 2002 Olympics and is now being sold in Europe were it is fast replacing the traditional wooden stickhandling ball. It was recognized as a """"Product of Merit"""" at the 2002 USA Hockey National Coaches conference and it used extensively by Skills Development Instructors throughout North America, Japan, Austrialia and Sweden. The Smarthockey Training Ball is a must have for any aspiring player who wants to improve his Stickhandling, Shooting or Passing skills. Every serious player should keep one in their bag for pre-game warm-ups exercises.
