Price tag a little steep there.

It's solving an issue that isn't there, but it's cool to see the innovation. Just like a big arse flat screen. Those were $5k for a 50" when they came out. Now you can get a 65" for $400. One day when the process and materials are figured out, and these will be an above average option for your kids.

For those who don't understand the need for an airless basketball it's all about selling more product. Period. Nothing wrong at all with that. You don't have to buy it.
