Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This basketball typically arrives partially inflated. Ensure it is inflated to the recommended PSI, usually indicated on the ball itself or within accompanying documentation. Over-inflation can damage the ball, while under-inflation can affect performance.
Compatibility:
The "Ascent" basketball is designed for both indoor and outdoor court surfaces. However, prolonged use on abrasive outdoor courts may lead to faster wear of the cover compared to indoor play.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the ball clean with a damp cloth after use to remove dirt and sweat. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the cover material.
- Storage: Store the ball in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure it is properly inflated to maintain its shape.
- Inflation: Periodically check the ball's inflation level and re-inflate as needed using a standard basketball needle and pump.
