USING the Hoop - Suggestions for Play
We hope to improve this section of our site with any information that allows our customers and other Door Jam fans to better enjoy our product.
* "the rock" - slang for the basketball
Presently, we include an extremely soft, vinyl-covered padded ball with our hoop. However, some of our all-Door Jam players prefer some other "rocks"; for now, we name the brands here:
1) a ball branded the "Coop Rookie" is a soft but inflatable ball, with a perfect diameter for our hoop. It provides excellent dribble response for realistic basketball play, and appears to have excellent durability.

2) We now offer for sale a ball branded the "POOF" - a firmer version of the standard foam ball. It
is a favorite of many indoor hoopsters, and has pretty good dribble response. After hours of play, this ball
gets a little ragged; however, at our price of 3.75, it's cheap enough to get a new "gamer" !
Buy a POOF ball from us!
Your priorities may vary, with regard to play vs. breakage of objects in the room. Please watch this space for additional information.
