Hi there i bougt a ball from you but i cant use it because it is to slippery is that comon ?

Hey, just to let you know this is normal for most types of indoor balls. Real leather balls are the best quality, but also need the most "breaking in." dribbling a lot and shooting around with it will help soften the leather to improve the cushion and grip. After a couple of sessions you should notice it start to improve, and once broken in they perform the best and have a great feel.

You didn't buy it from me as I haven't sold any on Amazon yet. But the answer to your question is 'Yes', real leather balls tend to be slippery at first but after they have been used they become less so. The advantage of these new balls is they require less 'breaking in' than previous leather balls such as the Molten GL
