A note on Albury balls
Indoor and outdoor pickleballs are different balls. Indoor balls are softer with bigger holes, outdoor balls are harder with smaller holes, and using an outdoor ball on Rebound Ace inside can feel fast and skiddy. If you split your time between Sneaky Cat and Lavington, a hybrid ball saves you carrying two kinds. More in indoor vs outdoor pickleball balls and how long pickleballs actually last.
