What is it made out of? Would it be legal for basketball use?

Plastic material.. Unsure if it's lea gal or not. However, it can be taped over with koban to secure it to the finger.

It is a rigid plastic. Don't know if it is legal for basketball but be sure and confirm the measurement recommended; mine was too small.

I think it would well for basketball. It seems to stay in place well when moving around. It's not very thick (only about a 1/4"), so it provide pretty minimal protection. Which is fine for what I use them for. You would probably want something with a hard shell and maybe more padding for something like rollerblading on cement. I'm not sure how much protection you are looking for, but I think they would probably work well for basketball and even volleyball.

Outdoor unless you have a basketball gym you can use it in. You practice hovering indoors but that's about it.

Yes it is as ridgid as a basketball. Feels just like a basketball only heavier.

Not in the same way you could dribble a regulation basketball. This is a soft, pliable rubber ball -- not firm like a traditional basketball. It's also much smaller than a regulation basketball. You can certainly bounce it, but it's a little small to actually dribble.

It is made of very strong PVC. My grandson is 11 and kicks soccer balls into it all the time and it is very sturdy.Also, once you put it together it can be left outside. Hope this helps.

Its pretty durable, you can't hang on the rim tho. This is our second season using the basketball hoop and its holding up well!

I don't know what it is made from. It is not squishy. It is not hard plastic. And, it is not comfortable. But, I'm an adult and I bought it for myself so it is a tad too small and a tad too hard for me. It's probably fine for a child. Mine never minded sitting on anything hard judging by all the time they spent playing on the floor...

yes, but it's a little cheapo ball....I ended up ordering a small "real" basketball with it for my grandson.

Yep. Designed in the U.S. and made in China - like most things. It's a great outdoor basketball. If you play on cement or a surface that gets wet or kinda dirty from time to time, this ball will hold up well, keep it's grip, and perform well. I have another ball that's meant for indoors that cost about 2x as much and I actually prefer this ball over it because it's easy to clean and can be played on so many surfaces. Great buy if you're looking for an outdoor only ball or a ball you may use indoors once in a while. You may need to take some of the air out though as it can be VERY bouncy and unpredictable if you pump it up to the recommend PSI.

I'm afraid I don't know what it is made of but do recommend it. I would suggest contacting the seller to be sure.

I'm not sure.... a very lightweight metal, maybe aluminum? But they are sturdy .... not something you want to step on barefoot! The ball is kind of cheesy. I replaced it with a bouncer ball from the dollar store. But overall these are thevjacksvwe grew up playing.

Rim itself is made out of steel but the back board is made out some kind of plastic. If you try to dunk hard, it looks like the board will be break easily.

It will for a bit in my opinion but it shouldn't be uses on an outdoor court. If you want to play outdoor's buy a indoor/outdoor ball, that would be the beat option for you.

It is made of plastic. Should not be a problem since there is no weight or pressure on it.

It's made out of a sturdy hard plastic...made to look like rattan. It's actually looks pretty good and it's comfortable too. But if you're looking for the real thing, this is not it.

It seems to be a very heavy duty cloth of some sort. Could be plastic though. Like nylon maybe. It has enough texture to grip a mouse ball if you aren't using an optical mouse. I use at work and like it very much.
