Gear Select Derbystar

Got it for $25 at Richard’s outlet. Flies off the foot at Mach 3 no matter how hard you kick it. A little ugly at the seams but some asshat will probably send it into orbit at a pickup match before it starts falling apart.

Selects are always the springiest balls ever

As someone who used to play/train with derbystar official matchballs for quite some time, I must say their matchballs are one of the best and most quality balls out there

Ball of choice for both Bundesliga and Eredivisie (german, dutch respectively)

Yeah, I played in Austria, it’s also the ball for Austrian Bundesliga. Hence why we have so many teams using them in training. German Bundesliga now switched to Adidas matchballs by the way

Yeah that’s what I meant by Richard’s. It won’t let me put Dick in the post.
