I like spalding Zi/o

does that hold up alright on the tar?

how bout that one that has the built in pump?

The Nike one seems sketchy. The covering material seems as though it would lose its grip-ability if it got wet or something. Other then that the Nike ball seems ok. I myself prefer old school Spalding. I usually just an indoor ball outside, although they get chewed up pretty quick on the asphalt.

Wilson synthetic leather is nice.

i go thru one nike 1000 ball each summer. it feels nice, but doesn't seem very durable. i guess its ok tho... $25 for a summer of bball.

in the summer, weather permitting, i play about 5 days a week... so it takes a pretty good beating.

YMMV, i have owned two or three of these Zi/O each of them seems to be different material wise......
