A South Florida company has manufactured a ball that bounces on water for use in games.

Greenacres-based Waboba, short for “water bouncing ball,” was created to provide new options in water activities. Only a few inches of water—on the ocean, a lake or a pond—are needed to play handball, tennis and other sports.

The popular “Extreme” model is lightweight, speedy and small. The “Blast” was developed for durability against pool decks and edges. The “Pro,” with extra weight, size and “bounce factor,” will be used in a league named the International Waboba Federation.

The ball retails for $10.

“One of the important things for us is to maintain the quality of the brand and protect our core constituents in the specialty surf, sports, beach and toy segments,” reports Jeff Newkirk, president of Waboba USA, “We’ve been internationally patented and we know that our product will outlast any competitor.”
