Balance ball (70 cm):
These balance balls with a diameter of 70cm are the most commonly used balls for initiation and performance.
Be aware that smaller or lighter balls will move more quickly and therefore be less accessible. For safety reasons, and especially for use with beginners, it is best to choose a 16 kg ball, which will roll much less than a lighter one.
NetJuggler's opinion:
Do not use without adult supervision. This item can be dangerous if not handled according to basic safety rules.
The mold used to make this balance ball is old: the visible seam line all around is quite pronounced and the finishes may appear rough.
We now offer an improved version, produced from a recent mold offering clean finishes and a much cleaner look, all at a more advantageous price: Balance ball with stopper .
We can order lighter balls (10 kg), which we strongly advise against for use by acrobats, but which we typically sell as decorative objects or seats. The price for this version is lower. Please contact us for more information.
Features of the balance ball:
- Weight: 16kg.
- Diameter: 700 mm.
- Available in blue, red, green, yellow or fuchsia.
- Ideal for use with children and adults.
Painting a balance ball:
Here's a question we get asked regularly. If you'd like to decorate your balance ball by painting it, that's perfectly possible. The ball is made of polyethylene. Polyethylene is a material used, among other things, to make car bumpers, so you can find paints commercially available that are suitable for this material. The ball has a glossy finish, so before painting, you'll need to lightly torch the ball with a blowtorch so the paint adheres to the surface.
For what type of practice?
Ideal for associations and schools.
The goal is to be able to balance on the ball unaided. To achieve this, take a few precautions. Place the ball on gym mats (the kind used in gymnastics or karate) and have two people hold it firmly (seated on their knees on either side of the ball). Take many small steps to maintain your balance and move around.
Learning how to do balance ball:
We recommend using mats if you are teaching this discipline in circus arts classes. We recommend the following mats: Evolution 40 Cover Mat (Reinforced Corners)
Balance ball and car tire:
If you're teaching people who have never been on a balance ball before, the first few sessions can be done with the ball completely static. To do this, simply place the ball on a car tire. If this is something you'd like to try, you can easily find an old tire at any auto repair shop; usually, with a friendly exchange, mechanics are happy to give you a tire that's nearing the end of its life. Circus arts are all about resourcefulness!
The tire will also be useful for placing the balance ball on it for storage, preventing it from rolling around.

Is it possible to do balancing acts on large balls that inflate (like the ones you sit on or the ones for pregnant women)?
Hello, you indicate that to paint on a balance ball you have to flame the support with a blowtorch to make the surface sticky, can you obtain a sufficiently sticky surface by sanding the surface with emery cloth?
Also, do you know if the paint (on prepared support) has good wear resistance?
I have to paint a balance ball over its entire surface for a show, I don't know, given that the design on this ball is not in the mass of the material, if the paint will easily resist the different uses of the ball.
Does the paint withstand rolling the ball on different surfaces (dance mat, wooden floor, concrete floor, etc.)?
Do you have any information on this subject?
Thank you.
Do you have 1.20m balls?
To date, we only offer balance balls with a diameter of 70cm.
I have a knee problem and I love it, can I do it?
Ask your doctor, he will be able to advise you better than we can.
When using the ball, you take lots of small steps that don't require highly developed knee motor skills. However, getting on, off, or falling off the ball can be dangerous even with a well-functioning knee.
Hello, I would like to know if it damages the ball to make it in the grass?
No, it won't damage the ball... It might get a little dirty, however, depending on the condition of the lawn!
Do you have balls that are 1.20 meters in diameter?
It's 16 kg, it's portable, but is it hard to lift?
It's not the weight that makes these balls difficult to lift, but rather their size! Honestly, they lift quite easily, and then roll quite easily. The 70cm diameter means they fit through most doors, which are usually 80cm by default.
why is it so expensive
mold + manufacturing + storage + delivery + limited market and therefore limited production
I play boules on carpet, could I play it on grass???
Yes, it is entirely possible to do it on grass... But be careful, the flatter the ground, the better it rolls!
Why is the diameter of the balls 70 cm? Is a larger diameter better for adults?
THANKS
The 70cm diameter is ideal for everyone. A smaller ball is more difficult to use, it is less easy to find your balance on a smaller ball. A larger ball is more stable but requires more supervision than a 70cm ball, especially for beginners with children. Finally, a 70cm ball fits through most standard doors, which are generally 80cm wide! It is the ideal size for beginners with children and adults.
For me, using a balance ball with a diameter of 70 cm is much easier than using a lighter, smaller ball!
