Great value, bright color; Excellent for practice!
I bought a 12-pack. Great price! Got only 1 or 2 that had the loopy shape. My favorite as a coach for beginners and practice. However, at open when playing the 3.5+ bangers, they will crack them in a few games. Usually lasts a few weeks before cracking or gets too soft in the sun. If replaced often is fine, but I save my more expensive "pro" balls now for matches.

X40 Pickleballs
I only buy Franklin X40 balls as they stand the test of time. Other balls I have used crack faster or go out of round. Franklins have been consistent and the green color works in all levels of sun or shade. Buy the real thing and you can't go wrong.

Awesome x-40 set!
Love this set of X-40s. Nice to have different color options for to contrast different court colors, lines and backwalls. IMHO X-40s are the best for pickleball.
