### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for Setters
*by A***S on November 18, 2019*

This is the perfect ball for setting practice. It’s just heavy enough to help setter perfect higher sets. PS—Can we address something on almost every volleyball review? Basically, NFHS, USAV, and NCAA require balls to be between 4.3 psi and 4.6. While that number drops for beach volleyballs, it doesn’t really matter. As a referee, I have never measured the PSI of any ball that met the required specifications before a match. Most balls lose pressure. Some balls gain pressure if exposed to extreme heat. The most common complaint I read in reviews is that a ball didn’t come inflated. The idea that a ball will should come inflated is ridiculous, especially when it comes to meeting the required specifications of inflation. Buy a cheap pump and meter. You’ll need it—even if your ball comes inflated to the correct pressure. While I have received maybe one ball out of hundreds that was warped once inflated, that was an anomaly. Expecting a volleyball you ordered through the mail be inflated to its specifications is like ordering an above-ground-pool kit you expect to come filled with water.
