MOLTEN X TECHNOLOGY
The arrival of the new Molten X Basketball Technology was introduced earlier in 2015, when Molten signed with the British Basketball Leaguethrough to 2020.Molten thusreleased a new basketball for use at the top level in UK beginning with the GG7X.Updatesspota new look, a new feel, and a new level of performance, as an improvementfrom the original Molten basketball model.
MOLTEN BASKETBALL CONSTRUCTION
Molten basketballs have four layers of construction; the surface, rubber cover, windings and the bladder.
As well as selecting top quality materials for the outer surface layer of their balls, they have a rubber cover integrated just under the surface which reinforces the windings and bladder beneath. In the BGGX basketball, the basketball contains minute air bubbles in the rubber layer, which gives the basketball a softer feel than the other balls in the range.
The windings have been R&D-edto get the optimal elasticity for the basketballs, achieved using a nylon-polyester blend.
Th core of BGGX basketballs, Molten bladders have an excellentrecord for air pressure retention, aided by a high retention performance butyl bladder.
MOLTEN X BASKETBALL SURFACE
The most notable differences in the new Molten X Basketball Technology are on the surface of the basketball, where the colour and construction have been tweaked for performance.
Parallel Pebble Surface
The traditional raised bumps have been flattened out on the newGG7Xmodelas well as the others in the GGX rangefora smoother finishallowingfor better grip and control, thanks to an increase in the contact area between a players hand and the surface.
The pebbles arealso modified in terms of shape and placement, to create a geometric & uniform surface across the basketballgivingmore consistency in touch and performance.
Flattened Seams
The seams of the basketball have also been flattened out forconsistency of performance and touch. This reduces the height difference between the panels and the gaps between the panels.
The all-round flatter construction means amore consistent backspin on the ball for more precise shooting and passing, no matter which position the basketball is held in.
Enhanced Visibility
The colour has been tweaked slightly, with the lighter panels being toned down further to give an even greater contrast in the colours across the basketball.
The colour change givesitbetter visibility on the court, and allowsthe rotation of the basketball to be seen more accurately at from afar. This allowsspectators and TVaudiences toget a clearer sight ofthe way the basketball moves around the court.
NEW RANGE
The new Molten X Basketball Technology has been implemented across therange of Molten GXX basketballs.
The ever popular GG7 basketball has been revamped into the GG7X andthe same is true of the official FIBA GL7X game ball and theGM7X schools & club match-ball.There'salso the addition of the brand new Molten GH7X 365 basketball - a hardy, year-round basketball for those who truly believe basketball never stops.
