Yamuna ball loses air

[michl43]

One of my Yamuma balls, the green one, seems to lose air faster than normal. I have to fill it up every time I use it, and when I'm done rolling, it is much less firm. I think it is too late for me to return it. My red ball is not so drastic, it loses a little bit, but not as much. Anyone with similar experience?

Hi Michelle,

I have both the red and green, and my experience is the same as yours. I think it is just the nature of the materials used in the balls.

I had that trouble with the Yellow and Red.. HOWEVER I dont have any trouble with the Fitball small balls.. which I recommend over the Yamuna balls.

I dont think its the materials of the balls .. I think its poor valves.
(which sometimes happen on other peoples fitballs.. just not mine

Can you return your ball?

My experience is like Cinza's ..

I'm finding the same especially with my yellow one. Unfortunately I found I didn't like the fitballs nearly as well - I found them very hard and unpleasant.


The Yamuna balls, if you look closely, are actually made by Ledraplastic - the big Italian company which is one of the major suppliers of fullsize balls also. Does anyone know of a cheaper source of small balls from that company??

This happened with my red ball. I would inflate it and immediately I would hear air escaping until it had deflated about 20%. I contacted them and they sent my a new ball which I inflated last night and it's still as hard today. They did request that I send the valve back from the original ball.
