have this, like it very much. i would say it's equal to the mikasa beach pro but (IMHO) the wilson is longer lasting. i paid $80 for this ball a few months ago and feel that it is well worth it

my last wilson $80 ball (same price for last 15 years) is still usable after 10 years of healthy sand league usage.

my mikasa is ~5 years old and is in worse condition (the rounded shoulders of each panel are scratched off and fuzzy rendering it undesirable to play with.

also - i prefer the yellow to be able to track the ball against differing backgrounds

Yep, this is like the main ball for beach. The kob one is super rubbery/grippy compared to AVP.

Even Wilson has gone woke in the remake, with some yellow guy now instead of the white guy. Unwatchable! (100% sarcasm, in case it wasn't completely clear)

I don't think there really is a "main" ball. Europeans imo play mikasa vls3000, a lot of people play the Wilson, but then there are literal KOB only tournaments that are huge, so people will only play with that to warm up/get used to it.

And then there's the church leagues/family bbqs that use some 5$ synthetic garbage from Walmart.

These were sold out for a while though, so I'm happy to see a sale on these —thanks for the post OP.

It's sad how much worse these yellow/orange/black balls are than the old model yellow and white ones. I'd put these at about the same level as the black/white King of the Beach balls.

The best beach volleyballs are, by far, the older (maybe mid-2000s to early 2020s) yellow/white Wilsons. Those had the perfect texture, perfect size, perfect weight. This new model is smaller/denser, simply not as fun to play with. Yes, you can adjust to different balls, but if you're spending $60+ on a ball, it's because you know how to play and know what you want.

I agree, my yellow and white was much softer. Bought the OPTX during a winter sale and is not as soft as all the other OPTX balls I've used during league play. Hoping it would soften up during play but not the case, guess I got stuck with a bad one. Also bought directly from Wilson.
