Djubi Slingball, The Ultimate Game of Catch, Long Distance Slingshot Scoop Ball Set, Indoor & Outdoor Sports Toy for Kids & Adults Ages 8+ - Classic

I got this gift for my God son & he absolutely loves it! He plays it in the yard & in the pool with his friends. A great way to have fun outside, while being active. Super affordable gift for that hard-to-buy-for tweenage boy! Would highly reccommend.

Played this game lots of times. Balls can launch very high very accurately. For best accuracy, draw pointing downward as if shooting a long bow and then aim up with the ball resting against your inner elbow/bicep.The rubber bands on the balls do break, and be warned that they come in 3 sizes and the only good size is the large (which is the 4-pack). The medium (5-pack) is simply unusable and for some reason the physics just don’t work. Balls last a few hours of play each, or maybe a dozen hours if the user can’t put much strain on the band. The 4-pack of balls is what you want for replacements and the slingshot balls that come with the toy are the size large, so you won’t necessarily need replacements right away, but when you do get replacements make sure you get the size large. A 5-pack of balls or a six pack are the wrong ball size.

The reviews sold me on this, so I will chime in - Djubi is exactly what I hoped for. I wanted a low-key, easy and entertaining beach toy to give my husband and I and our college-age sons something to do together on the beach. We have varying athletic ability (I'm at the low end), and this was perfect. It was easy to "shoot" a good distance and surprisingly easy to catch, once you get the hang of it. The wind factor introduces an entertaining challenge but still very do-able with a sea breeze. The ball is light and floats, so there's no panic about getting hit by the ball or if it falls in the water. The raquet/nets seem durable enough, although we've only used it for one vacation. I would think younger children would enjoy it too, as it sparked some interest from kids nearby and they wanted to "shoot" it. I am very happy with the launching aspect, because I just don't throw, hit or pitch well. This toy was a good choice.

Once you get your technique down launching the balls consistently, this is a really fun game for the park, beach or pool. Knocking a star off because the rubber loops on the balls don't last very long. Packs of new Djubi balls are available for around $13.

Djubi is a game of catch, with a twist! You receive two nets, that each have a hook on top, that you launch the ball with. Also, it comes with two balls with the bands attached that you launch off the hooks. Depending on how far you pull the ball back, you can launch it to a short distance or a very long distance. The balls definitely fly! I bought this for my daughter for her 9th birthday. But I think this game would be great for pretty much any age. If you can play catch, you can play this game. This gets you outside and moving! Great on grass, sand, any surface. I did think the nets would be a tad bit bigger, but playing the game with them, they are a good size. Prompt service from the seller, packaged nicely, nothing was broken, came in perfect condition. So, if you want to get your child or yourself out of the house, and get some exercise, these are a great option. Not really expensive either. Have fun!

This was everything we imagined it would be for play on the beach. We had people watching us. I felt like we invented a new game nobody saw because it was not something you see (we never saw it before Amazon) and something that is very fun to play running on sand or just staying in position. The balls can go into the water (they float) and they will move just a bit in wind, but you learn to account for it before you "sling" it off of the holder (part of the skill growth in the game). Kids (16 and 12) played it for hours in Aruba all week. They kept asking where I found this...a great fresh game. Love it. (Well built too...you can buy extra balls, since they have elastic rings attached to fire them off of sling, in case the rings break. I bought a pack, and we only used the single ball they are built so well).

Fun concept, but really hard to execute. My really athletic young cousins (7 and 10) had a really hard time figuring these out. I was able to get the ball to shoot straight after several tries, but they had a tough time having the combined hand and arm strength to pull back on the band attached to the ball and hold the net steady (that acts like the sling). I think with young people it's o.k. to have games that they can't master right away, but frustation won out before they could get the knack of it.

We got these out for Memorial Day weekend and everyone who tried them enjoyed playing. The ball goes REALLY far, but is still easy to catch in the net (if you get close enough!). Got some exercise chasing the less accurate shots, and played for quite a while without it getting boring. A great alternative to frisbee or other back and forth games. The only issue is durability (3 stars). The rubber bands are already showing significant wear/degradation from stretching after only a couple of hours of use. I suspect they will break soon.
