I really love this ball. I will compare with molten5000 and mva200 as they are the 2 balls I play with the most.
Overall: Amazing! I prefer this over the other two. The ball is like as if u merged the molten5000 and mva200 together: the best of the both worlds. Its def a pick up and play ball like the molten5000. So good for the avg/expert skill level. Beginners may have some time to get used it bc the ball doesnt help you as much like the molten5000 or traditional vball. You really have to use your own strength to hit this ball around. Although it has a WAY easier learning curve than the mva200, def A LOT a less shanking now.
Feel/touch: same feel as the mva200. Not rubbery like the molten5000. Not to soft but not too hard, easily grippable.
Sweat/wetness: Much improved from the mva200 but if u have a bunch of sweaty people passing the ball, it will get slippery. Still not as good as the molten5000 as I feel the rubbery material just absorbs it all.
Setters: grips very easy, and very easy to set, feels just a natural set n release. Easier then mva200 with the increased # of panels, and better than molten5000.
Hitters: amazing like the mva200, probably better. I love to hit this ball. The feel of it and feedback is awesome. You do have to put a lot of power into your hit for it to move faster which is great bc assuming you got the right hand wrist motion, you can swing as hard as you want and it will just go and stay in. With molten5000, I feel i have to pull back a little bc the ball itself helps your hit or it will go further than expected (out!).
Servers: the crazy floats/drops of the mva200 are gone now. With the increased panels, it doesnt float or drop like the mva200. Its more like the molten5000 but every now and then will float/drop if hit a certain way like the mva200. No more easy points =P. Jump servers will love it bc you just swing away and it'll go.
Passers: WAAAYYYY easier to pass than mva200, more in line with the molten5000. I rarely shank this ball. The increased panels increased the surface area, toned down the floats/drops and it doesnt slide/skid off your forearms. You do have to use some of your own power to pass it and not rely on the speed of the hits to help you. The ball is hard and definitely not soft. People DEF complained about that aspect. It may leave some bruises if not used to the harder balls.
Hope that helps. I can see why they changed the mva200. The pros playing with it are definitely are shanking less now. The passing is so much better now. My go-to ball now. Enjoy!!!
