have bought the ball as a gift and the first attempt to throw to by something harsher operating the booster cord by the user, the cable in the joint and the Powerball caught a lot of knee height (as when sitting) on the carpeted floor. Cord Easy Lies removed, apparently everything is OK, now an imbalance in there and annoying noise. Well shatterproof perhaps, but in the age groups where something easily pass can not use to.
