DURABALL SAFETY

 Over recent years there have been reports of anti
 burst and burst resistant Swiss balls exploding
 during use and injuring users.  Not all balls are the
 same quality despite what their labels may indicate
 and the use of balls may put the user at risk of
 serious injury.  Here are some important
 considerations:

 Age of Swiss Ball
 Abuse and Damage
 Know the User’s History
 Evaluate The Environment
 Incorrect Inflation

ABUSE & DAMAGE

 Swiss balls are very commonly kicked around a gym or
 studio. Impact with an edge (equipment, furniture etc)
 may damage the inside of the ball surface. Over inflation
 can also weaken the ball. Check that it is not over
 inflated (see Inflation Chart) This may not be apparent
 on casual inspection. This may diminish the burst
 resistance totally and leave the user at risk.
 Always look closely for surface marks and
 abrasions.
  If you are not sure do not use the ball.
 If you are in a gym, check the history and condition of
 the ball with an Instructor.
