Product Description
Powerball is the world's most powerful hand gyroscope, generating speeds of over 16,000 rpm!Simply by starting up the Powerball in your hand and rotating your wrist faster you can develop incredible speeds and increase your strength.Powerball is seriously addictive for all ages, making it ideal for play, exercise, or fun competitions.Powerball is a dynamic and completely revolutionary new gyroscope that literally explodes with mind-numbing torque and inertia once you activate its internal rotor.It's about the same size as a tennis ball and weighs just a little more, but take a Powerball in your hand, set that rotor in motion with the cord provided (or use your finger when you get used to it) and you'll experience an extraordinary sensation.Powerball slowly comes alive with gyroscopic force - a sublime yet pleasant resistance to your movement which is transmitted directly into your wrist and arms and which provides soothing, non impact rehabilitation at these lower speeds.Bring your new Powerball up to 10,000rpm, the forces are now much stronger, much more vibrant. Higher! Take it right up to an unbelievable 15,000rpm at which point it's exerting almost 40lbs of pressure on your limbs and is travelling at nearly 250 revolutions per second.No batteries, no motor, just pure gyroscopic powerNot suitable for Children Under 14yrs

 Addictive! October 19, 2006

At first I thought the Powerball was a bit of waste of time. It took me a long time to get to grips with how you get the inner ball to rotate. Once you have the hang of it though, it's really quite addictive! The idea is that you hold the powerball in your hand and slowly start to rotate it so that the inner ball spins. Once you pick up speed the inner ball's resistance kicks in and it gives you a great arm workout - perfect if you play a lot of racket sports. Beyond an exercise tool, it's really addictive and I would guess it's a great way of keeping your hands busy when trying to give up smoking! Highly recommended!

This is the original powerball and still the one I keep coming back to. I have been using various powerball for over two years now and I love it as much now as when I first got it. The manufacturer's description really doesn't do this product justice, although their website does. If you use this powerball at low speeds it is great for RSI and other wrist/arm injuries. At high speeds it gives an amazing workout and really builds up all the arm and shoulder muscles. The build quality is incredible (do not be tempted by inferior wannabes) and the lifetime guarantee is unbeatable. I've had to replace a small part already (due to my intensive usage!) and they sent out the part quickly, free of charge and with full fitting instructions, can't say fairer than that! It is truly addictive and put it on a table in a room full of friends and you will all soon be fighting to out do one another. I could write so much more about this product, but really you've got to buy one and try for yourself, you will not regret it! Try to track down the version with the timing computer on top so you can see how you're progressing.

This is a very good item . i would give it five stars but i regret not buying the next model up with the speed counter. ive been spinning this little devil for a few days and my hand speed is getting very fast , after a few mins , it can really pick up some speed and shake ur fingers wrists and arms. il give this a few more weeks and my hands will grip like a vice.
Worth the money for the quality
fun and a skill to learn
good if you want to teach ur non dominant hand how to work properly
many benifits ... i do allot or drawing and hand writing this ball has improved both. many more benifits im sure will happen due to this product
