My trusty old homemade sand-in-a-basketball medicine ball has failed me for the last time. I'm going to buy a new one. Found this one on ebay that seems comparable to the Dynamax balls. Has anyone used one? How do they compare?

Looks like they are made by TITLE.

questions that need to answered:

What is the diameter compared to Dynamax?
Are they padded like dynamax?

P.S. I purchased by GHD from CFF and had a great experience.

FYI - Cheaper from their website, plus saves them ebay fees

The diameter is 13" whereas the Dynamax is 14". Your endorsement of the brand is probably good enough for me to try it. They have good ebay feedback so I'll give it a try. I'll repost when it comes in and let everyone know how they are. $55 compared to $115 is a huge difference.

josh,

we have a title 20lb med ball and it is built to last, but whatever they fill it with is not evenly distributed within the ball. so, when doing wall balls, it bounces in different directions coming off the wall making awkward to catch. it moves awkwardly during med ball cleans for the same reason. jusy an fyi...

Eric - Just ordered from their website. Thanks for the link! That was very awesome of you.

Tom - Great information. I really appreciate your feedback. I've been doing wall ball with a leaking sand-filled basketball against a tree while balancing on the roots for about a year now so if it's better than that I'll be very happy with it.

Been crossfitting alone for over a year now. It's extremely helpful and awesome to have the community on the forums for this kind of stuff. Thanks again guys.

Please report back when you receive it in

Will do. Could be a good find if they turn out decent. Said to allow 2 weeks for shipping.

I ordered this same Medicine ball, but was told that they won't be in stock until June 30th.
