Mikasa V200W, Volleyball

First of all, everyone knows what you're getting when you get a Mikasa V200W. It's an amazing ball, lighter than the classic Moltens, but it just feels good in your hands.Biggest question you're asking when you order from Amazon for a volleyball is "Is it legit?"And the one I got definitely was, you can tell immediately with the touch, the graphics, and the light indents all over. Unfortunately didn't take any pictures before I gave it to one of my volleyball kids I coach.I've read some reviews that people got fakes, but I didn't and with how easy Amazon handles returns, I wouldn't worry about it either and just pull the trigger.

I love this ball. To me, it seems to be legit, or at least highly comparable to the previous V200W I had before this one (RIP). The quality is great, the texture of the dimples and surface feel amazing. No leakage or air issues, my only issue is that it gets scuffed pretty quickly and easily. Like a half hour into the first use and it had a couple marks from the floor that didn't come off after some washing with water and rubbing. It floats great, it gets a little slippery when wet (like the ball does normally). People say that the ball is less grippy with sweat and that is true, but when dry you can get a good grip on the ball. Although I would say that the Molten FLISTATEC has better grip.

I really love this ball. I will compare with molten5000 and mva200 as they are the 2 balls I play with the most.Overall: Amazing! I prefer this over the other two. The ball is like as if u merged the molten5000 and mva200 together: the best of the both worlds. Its def a pick up and play ball like the molten5000. So good for the avg/expert skill level. Beginners may have some time to get used it bc the ball doesnt help you as much like the molten5000 or traditional vball. You really have to use your own strength to hit this ball around. Although it has a WAY easier learning curve than the mva200, def A LOT a less shanking now.Feel/touch: same feel as the mva200. Not rubbery like the molten5000. Not to soft but not too hard, easily grippable.Sweat/wetness: Much improved from the mva200 but if u have a bunch of sweaty people passing the ball, it will get slippery. Still not as good as the molten5000 as I feel the rubbery material just absorbs it all.Setters: grips very easy, and very easy to set, feels just a natural set n release. Easier then mva200 with the increased # of panels, and better than molten5000.Hitters: amazing like the mva200, probably better. I love to hit this ball. The feel of it and feedback is awesome. You do have to put a lot of power into your hit for it to move faster which is great bc assuming you got the right hand wrist motion, you can swing as hard as you want and it will just go and stay in. With molten5000, I feel i have to pull back a little bc the ball itself helps your hit or it will go further than expected (out!).Servers: the crazy floats/drops of the mva200 are gone now. With the increased panels, it doesnt float or drop like the mva200. Its more like the molten5000 but every now and then will float/drop if hit a certain way like the mva200. No more easy points =P. Jump servers will love it bc you just swing away and it'll go.Passers: WAAAYYYY easier to pass than mva200, more in line with the molten5000. I rarely shank this ball. The increased panels increased the surface area, toned down the floats/drops and it doesnt slide/skid off your forearms. You do have to use some of your own power to pass it and not rely on the speed of the hits to help you. The ball is hard and definitely not soft. People DEF complained about that aspect. It may leave some bruises if not used to the harder balls.Hope that helps. I can see why they changed the mva200. The pros playing with it are definitely are shanking less now. The passing is so much better now. My go-to ball now. Enjoy!!!

Great quality! My daughter love it!

The Mikasa V200W is an incredible volleyball! It came fully inflated and ready to use, which was super convenient. The build quality is top-notch—it feels durable and made to last. The grip is very nice, offering just the right balance between smoothness and control, so it’s easy to set, spike, and serve with confidence. The aerodynamics are amazing—the ball floats through the air with precision, and you can really feel the quality of play it brings. It’s the official FIVB game ball for a reason, and it’s perfect for serious players or anyone who just wants the best. Highly recommend!

Best indoor ball I’ve ever used! Not the average volleyball but not in a bad way. Once you get used to it, this will be your new favorite volleyball!

Good ball to use and get if it’s on sale. I bought this while it was $50 and am very happy with my purchase. Hitting feels really good on this ball but receiving hurts a lot. I am a casual player though so that might be a me problem. Not as “grippy” as I imagined like the Molten ball but that doesn’t take away from it.

excelente producto,.muy bueno
