Title: Orange Peel?
Post by: agroves on February 03, 2010, 02:56:50 AM

Anybody ever seen the cover of a ball look like an orange?  Seriously?  This guy showed me a Gamebreaker that the coverstock looked like the outside of an orange.

He isn't the type to do odd stuff to his equipment.  My only guess is drastic temp changes.

Andrew,

Do you mean it feels like an orange peel/skin or it looks like a bad auto paint job, which some people describe as "orange peel"?

I've never seen a ball look like "orange peel". Was it out of the box like that or did something happen to it?

It was a well used Gamebreaker.  It had a rougher feel as well.
