Skyball Explained

The Sky Ball is a mid-sized bouncy ball toy sold by Maui Toys.[1] Each ball measures 4inch in diameter[2] and contains a mix of helium[3] [4] and compressed air.

It has received critical acclaim for its high restitution, or bounciness.[5] The Skyball is often compared to the popular 1965 Wham-O Superball,[6] with the Skyball being advertised as bouncing, "higher than a 1.5 inch superball".[1] In 2010, the ball was packaged with a plastic baseball bat, and advertised as flying as far as when struck.[4]
