Tennis ball pressurizers (Gamma Revive, Tourna Restore, Tennis Ball Saver, Ball Rescuer)

A comparison of some different consumer tennis ball pressurizers as well as how they work. Which one is my favourite?…

i believe the revive/restore/ball saver are 14 psi over atmospheric pressure, so ~28 psi in total pressure. 14 psi is less than 1 standard atmospheric pressure, it doesn't make sense if it's only 14 psi.

[@funkyfreshg]

Yes, that would be correct. All would be relative to atmospheric pressure

I just saw an ad for a Head one where you need a pump but I cannot find it lol

Thanks for this vid 👍.
How long to they need to be in the containers for to notice a difference.
I've just got a 'head' branded one, but nowhere does it say for how long you are supposed to leave them to 'cook' for 🤷‍♂️

[@funkyfreshg]

For the gamma/tourna/tennis ball saver ones, they recommend 14 days. The ball rescuer only needs 3 days!

[@Macgonagle76]

Thanks. I was wondering the same thing!

[@glenparis]

Yeah, but do they work?

[@funkyfreshg]

I would definitely say the ball rescuer works. We’ve hit with some propenn balls for 4 hours, then put them in the rescuer for about a week, then took the balls out again to hit and they seemed to have even more bounce than before! Of course, felt will start to wear down so the ball’s lifespan will be limited by that aspect

[@bahia9991]

Is the ball rescuer worth it if I only have one of them? I mean, if I have just one ball rescuer but 6 balls total. Can I mantain 3 of them inside in a week, then the other 3... You think it would be useful?

[@kkui8635]

Yes, the point of them is to make flat balls not flat, after you repressurize your balls you can just store the others in a container with a lid, they’ll lose some pressure but should still be enough to play with, especially compared to a flat ball.

[@bahia9991]

@@kkui8635 It's useful if the loss of pressure after being pumped is slow. In my mind, for some reason, these balls would become flat again pretty quickly.

[@Swenser]

That with a ball refluffer and perfect. Why cant you just inject air in the ball ?

[@juaneer]

Because then you'd pierce the bladder, you need to diffuse air in by pressure difference

Who plays tennis with only three balls???

[@theRScope]

everyone that is not from the US. And in Japan the balls come in sets of 2 (fun fact of the day).
