Description
Overview
The Mikasa W6609W is the size 4 ball in Mikasa's water polo line, the size played by women's teams and by all-ages grades. Mikasa sells it as a competition game ball but positions it as a price-and-value option, so clubs can use one ball for both match day and training instead of keeping two stocks.
Grip comes from a long-wearing rubber cover with a specially buffed surface and deep ridge buffing lines for pinching the ball one-handed. Underneath it is nylon wound over a double laminated butyl rubber bladder, laid out in Mikasa's patented wave design.
