Description
Overview
The Wilson OPTX AVP Replica Game Ball is a replica of the AVP tour beach volleyball, built around how players see the ball rather than a new construction. Wilson's VST (visual spin technology) uses strategic colour variance so the eye detects spin sooner, and Optic Flow graphics help the ball stand out against clouds, sky, sand, water and crowds.
Underneath, it uses the same construction as the original AVP replica ball, so the feel matches what beach players already know. It is listed for practice, training and recreational play; see the wider volleyballs range for other options.
Key benefits
- Read spin earlier: VST colour variance makes rotation easier to see.
- Track the ball against sky, sand, water and crowds with Optic Flow graphics.
- Same feel as the original AVP replica, sharing its construction.
- Yellow colourway listed for practice, training and recreational use.
Who it's for
Beach volleyball players and coaches at club or school level who want a training ball that is easier to track outdoors, plus recreational players at the beach over summer.
It is a replica rather than the tour game ball itself, so treat it as a practice ball and check with your competition organiser before using it in fixtures. Browse the full Wilson range for other volleyballs and gear.
Care, safety and set-up
Brush sand off and let the ball dry before it goes into the kit bag, and keep it at playing pressure between sessions so the panels hold their shape.
