Do you like sports, sun and water? Would you like a new, fun and challenging experience on the beach this summer?

If so the Waboba Ball and the Waboba Beach game is perfect. The ball that bounces on water guarantees a lot of fun - and the Beachgame adds a real physical challenge. Together they give you and your friends a new way to make beachlife and beachsport enjoyable and exciting.

The Idea

Seriously, throwing a tennis ball or a frisbee while standing in water isn't all that fun. So why not invent something that bounces on water, like a skipping stone that you can catch?
And if that is possible, why not invent a game that is fun and challenging but can be played with just the ball, no goals, nothing extra - just the ball?
Waboba is the answer to those questions.

The Ball

The wabobaball is made of polyurethane and has a lycra coating. The mix of different polyurethanes makes the ball bounce and float on water. The ball is made to endure some rough handling, but do not bounce it on the ground or on walls etc.
The ball is CE marked. It is not recommended for use by children under 3 years. Waboba is a registered trade mark and the ball/use of the ball is internationally patented.

Waboba on the Beach

The easiest way to have fun with a wabobaball is to simply throw it so that it bounces on the water between you. Try different angles, catching it with one hand, bouncing it on waves etc. Watch videos on the media page to get some inspiration.
When practicing, you will soon find out that throwing and catching is fun teamwork that requires some skill. And the Beach Game adds the physical challenge that a fun game shall have.

The Beach Game

The idea of the game is to pass between team members, three in each team, without losing the ball to the other team. When all team members have caught the ball at least once, without interruption and with at least one bounce on water in each pass, the team gets one point (one round). The opposing team shall try to interrupt passes and start passing within their team. First team to three rounds wins the match. You have to pass the ball within 5 seconds after receiving it. It is allowed to tackle opponents, but not the player that has the ball. You are not allowed to hold an opponent.

Colour of the ball is ORANGE, not yellow.
