FIFA and Adidas presented the Official Match Ball for the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa that call the adidas “JABULANI”™, which has been developed in partnership with academics at Loughborough University.
The “JABULANI”, which agency “to celebrate” in isiZulu, appearance a South African aggressive architecture and radically new technology. The new jabulani ball, soon will be available in shop which was unveiled in Cape Town.
The Jabaluni has four triangular design elements on a white background. Eleven different colours are used, representing the eleven players on a football team, the eleven official languages of South Africa, and the eleven South African communities.
Aero grooves actualize the acutely arresting contour on the ball’s surface. The Grip’n’Groove profile circles round the entire ball in an optimal aerodynamic way. The integrated grooves create unmatched flight characteristics, making this the most accurate and most stable adidas ball ever. The ground-breaking performance features of the adidas “JABULANI” have been confirmed in comprehensive comparison tests and checks in the wind tunnel at Loughborough University and the adidas football laboratory in Scheinfeld, Germany.
The Jabulani is going to be every goalkeeper’s nightmare, and every striker’s greatest Christmas gift. To be honest, I can’t wait to see Cristiano Ronaldo strike this ball, Jabulani Soccer Ball because when he does it could be spectacular! I spent some time taking shots and it absolutely pings. The World Cup 2010 Ball is a very light ball and when you strike it clean it moves fast. In a sense, it reminds me of a plastic ball and it sounds plastic when you bounce it.
Striking it is a altered story, as the brawl feels like a covering ball, alone it seems to beset your bottom back you bang it. When you control the ball off a long pass, you can feel the energy of the ball on your foot. Even though it is super light, there is a lot of power hidden inside!
One of customer review is Fernando Robledo. Here is what he said about Adidas Jabulani “Best Soccerball ever. Now I know why soccer players kick hard and move fast. It’s all about the Ball.”
