I tried FBT balls years ago when they were available here with the La Franc brand. I thought they were okay, but I preferred Ton'r and still do. Extra soft balls last only a very short time, so I bought these to use for practice (200+ throws per day) to reduce wear of my preferred sets. Though these balls are plated they mark nicely for good tactile feel when played on basalt or granite, and they also remain smooth for good tack with a little condensation on the fingers. For accuracy these smooth balls require more awareness of the feel in the fingers, so they help for training to focus the mind. In time maybe I will want to play tournaments with them -- we'll see. A good price for good balls.
Normally play with 720g, but these are 680g, which means I can play for longer.
Good quality & fast service
Koule se mi líbí, ale vyzkouším je až na jaře.
Super Beratung macht weiter so
Er ist sehr zufrieden mit seinen Murmeln
Hallo Lars,
wir wünschen alles Gute nachträglich und weiterhin viel Spaß beim Schießen und Legen,
mit sportlichen Grüßen Christoph Team DECATHLON
Habe die Kugeln ca. 6Monate ausprobiert. Vielen Dank an Decathlon für die Möglichkeit die Kugeln so lange auszuprobieren. Leider auch zu hart. Gibt ein das Gefühl als ob man mit einer Kigellagerkugel spielt. Wird nicht griffig. Bleibt immer zu glatt.
vielen Dank für dein Feedback zu den Boulekugeln.
Schade dass du mit den Kugeln nicht zufrieden bist. Die Kugeln sind speziell für den Wettkampf konzipiert und werden entsprechend von uns getestet. Gerne kannst du die Kugeln aber kostenlos umtauschen und besser für dich geeignete auswählen.
Mit sportlichen Grüßen,
Max
Team DECATHLON
großer Spaß
nach meinem Ausgiebigen Test ist das eine sehr ordentliche allround Kugel. Ich als Pointeur find sie super, auch mein Tirreur kam gut mit ihr zurecht!
Las pelotas llegaron antes de la fecha indicada, fue un regalo y la persona que las recibió ha quedado encantada, son homologadas para la competición,todo genial
Très bien je recommande sans hésiter
Bonne qualité
Très agréable

How to choose the right petanque boule
Your choice of petanque boule should be based on several factors. Your playing style (pointer, shooter, all-rounder) will determine: - the required bounce quality (hard, semi-soft, soft, or very soft) - the weight of your boule (heavier for pointers and lighter for shooters) The size of your hand will determine the diameter of the boule.
What does hardness mean for a petanque boule?
The boule's hardness is expressed in the ROCKWELL HRC unit or in kg/mm². For example, 39 HRC corresponds to 273.4 lbs/mm². The higher the number, the harder the boule. The harder the boule, the less likely it is to get damaged, and the higher its elasticity, and vice versa. Regular players who use soft boules should consider frequently changing their boules to avoid undermining their game.
How are competition-approved geologic petanque boules made
Our competition petanque boules are hollow. These are the steps of our manufacturing process: - A lump of steel heated to +/- 1832°F is flattened and then stamped or forged into a hemisphere - These hemispheres are machined inside, welded together, and rotated until they are spherical. - The boule is then engraved, baked, and dipped into water, which will determine its hardness. - Finally, they are polished or varnished and then inspected.
How to clean your petanque boules?
After each match, wipe off dust with a clean cloth. Once a month, oil your petanque boules to prevent them from rusting. Cleaning regularly lengthens the lifespan of your petanque boules while also ensuring the quality of your match.
