that again collapses on impact with the water surface or player's hand. This makes the waterbag less active and easier to catch. The waterbag is both fast in action and slow acting on impact. Safety issues Most waterballs currently available, while perfectly functional in water, are not designed to work well on a hard surface. This is particularly true with the new generation waterbag design. Also, the impact of a waterball can hurt, and some waterballs have marks left on their skin. However, there are several balls that address these issues by using softer and lighter material. They have a low skip pattern and they are easy to catch and stay in the pool. Water absorbing waterbag designs are also designed in a way that makes them suitable for play in pools. References Ball games Water sports Water toys
