If you're tired of the wasted time and expense of replacing prematurely deflating pressurised match-play tennis balls, then Tretorn Micro X Balls could be the tennis ball you've been looking for.

Originating in Sweden, Tretorn have been producing tennis balls since 1902, so they know a thing or two about their construction. They haven't been resting on their laurels though, and the Micro X tennis ball is testament to their innovative powers.

It's a completely new class of tennis ball, neither pressurized or pressureless, that attempts to assimilate much of the feel and playability of standard pressurized tennis balls, yet last much longer. This makes it ideal as a practice ball and perfect for use in a Tennis Ball Machine.

Tennis Ball Machine

The large cavity found in ordinary tennis balls is great for giving the feel and optimum performance required in a tennis match, but every time the ball is struck or passes through a tennis ball machine, it loses a small amount of pressure through the thin outer layer of the ball. Even when not in use, slow deflation continues.

If you use alot of tennis balls, whether as a tennis instructor, or if you use a ball machine requiring hundreds of balls to fill the hopper, this attrition can be costly.

The Tretorn Micro X Tennis Ball solves the problem of air seepage by dividing the ball into millions of micro air pockets or cells - 700,000,000 to be exact, though I'm not going to count! Due to some very clever chemistry in the manufacturing process, the cell walls become microscopically thin, adding next to nothing to the ball's weight, and giving it the feel and playability of a pressurized ball.

With so many compartments, it's near impossible for air to escape, which gives the Micro X ball it's longevity. It's not uncommon for Micro X balls to be bouncing as new into their second year and beyond, whereas some pressurized balls can fall away in performance barely into their second week.

Pressureless tennis balls have been compared unfavorably with pressurized balls due to their more rigid construction, making the ball seem heavier when hit, especially when hit hard. The quality of the Micro X tennis ball is such that this is hardly noticeable compared to more economical brands - infact they seem to get more and more like a pressurized tennis ball with age, whilst retaining their bounce.

These tennis balls are the preferred choice of many professionals not only for long-lasting consistant bounce, but also for superior softness and receptability to spin, ensured by the titanium outer-core layer.

Tretorn have also had to upgrade the quality and durability of the felt coating to give it better feel and longevity to match the enhanced nucleus. Their 'Flex-Felt' is a optimal mixture of man-made polyester and wool to make this possible.

Pressureless tennis balls

Tretorn Micro X Balls cost a little more than the competition but can prove more economical as their incredible longevity means less need for replacement.
They'll also make your tennis practice sessions more realistic, easier on the arm
and ultimately more rewarding.
