Recently read a review of this in "Nuts" magazine, as im kind I will type it out for you:

"It may sound odd, but this is one of the worlds roundest footballs in the world. FIFA approved and kicked about by Chelsea in Europe, the centrus pro uses technique called Spherical circumference Control to improve roundness by placing the ball under intense heat and pressure. Its unique surface structure also means it absorbs less water and suffers very little from drag"

What do you reckon? Every ball I have kicked about always seemed pretty round and for £50, do you reckon its worth it? Maybe its one of them things you really have to have a go at to see how amazing it is.

Sounds pretty cool. Yeah, I'd have to use it first, before I'd even consider spending that much!

Couldn't find any pics unfortuantly sorry. There was one in the magazine but it didnt look anything special. Maybe try the umbro website?

www.umbro.com

It was the non water soaking thing that made me want one, they do sound nice but not £50 worth.

maybe theyre built like negative cut keeper gloves..like the seems are on the inside?
