As a Superball, the Skyball is a gas

Remember the Superball? Those dense rubber balls that would seem to bounce for a mile up before bouncing again? Ah, good times. But is rubber the only thing that can make a ball “super? Not at all. Check out the Skyball.

About the size of a softball and made with a combination of compressed air and the much lighter gas helium, the Skiyball can bounce as high as 75 feet (although it was tested and reached about 42, still not too shabby). Not only that, but because it’s exremely light in flight, a good strong toss can send it nearly the length of a football field and kids can knock it out of the park just like Babe Ruth.

The Skyball comes in four colors – blue, red, yellow and greeen and costs about $8.50.
