I have the old version of spikeball where the clips are on the inside. How much of a difference does the updated design make?

the new version is nice because you can keep the net very tight. It is also a lot easier to fasten the net. I hope this helps. My family loves this game!!!

I had the same question. I noticed the new ones do not have the SP. Looks like it would damage it to remove them.

I had previously owned one of these and over time lost it.. I purchased the newer one and from memory it looks and sounds just like the old one.. and it is quite.. not "Hollywood" quite but I shoot mine for target practice in the house all the time.. the pellet hitting the cardboard target makes more noise than the discharge of the BB pistol

I think there are two changes; 1) the color is different I prefer the old color. 2) the window is in a different location. I would get the old version. However please be aware that you need to use the guide lines every time you setup the tent or rain will pool on the top.

A little. There are methods of stretching and smoothing the inside to assist in better removal. I used it for a while but was too clunky for my taste and moved on to the Clipdraw.

I prefer the Baden by a large margin. It has better grip then the Wilson and it is lasting longer. I use it indoor ONLY. It is a real shooter's ball!

The Clip + has a smaller display then the Zip. Matter of preference mostly. They both are awesome.

It is pretty much the same game as the older version... the only difference my family and I noticed is the "buzzer" is more of a squeaker. We had fun playing!

The old version had a small opening to refill the water. Water would spill over as I tried to refill it. The improved version has a 3-4x larger opening to fill water. This is convenient as you can use your tub spout without having water spilled over. The second biggest improvement is the heating element. In the old version, the heating element had the caked on calcium deposits and I had to soak it with vinegar for a day or so. After using an old toothbrush to brush it off, the element deposits was not 100% removed. For the new version, the calcium does get caked on, but I can pretty much remove 100% of the deposits after soaking it in vinegar. Other than that, the two versions are the same. I'm inclined to buy another new version to replace the old one. One is used for an upstairs room and the other one for the downstairs room.

It seems most of answers to this question are from models without the clips? Which would be a different model?

I own both models, I find the newer one to be sturdier and a little more thought out. It feels a little bigger too. The wiring is more secure, the control is lighter so puts less stress on the wires should the clip come off your clothing. The storage case protects the AfterShokz when not in use. The charger is by micro USB and not plugging it into the old USB connector. I feel overall it is an improvement.

I have two spare clips and they work fine. They don't snap in place like the original but you will get use to raising the release lever while you hold the clip in place.

Sped Teacher answered nearly verbatim what I would have answered. Additionally, I only had hoped to order one spike to replace a broken one; however, the added benefit of having an extra set of spikes is I was able to lay out the placements even better than they were initially. I am very happy with this product for the price.

Terminology can differ from region to region, so my understanding of alligator clip may be different from yours. The type we had used previous to these used a method of attaching to the sheet that looked like what used to be used on ladies stocking garters. Those held the sheets slightly better, but these are much easier to attach and the tension is adjustable after they are attached - an outstanding feature. Over-all I like these better.

Yes. You might have to swap the clips from your old ones to these new ones if they don't attach to the floor clips.

I used to have a round one but now I have the oval. Definitely liked the round better. Seems like the oval is distorted.

also the new one has a human figure on the slide sound part and the old one has Lily, the female frog. My son can easily take the purple door off of the "open" sound on the old table but has not been able to remove the door on the new one. He has the new one at grandmas's and the old one at home. If you can get a used leapstart, get one because the differences are minimal. But if you're buying new, the new model seems better.
