Djubi Slingball, The Ultimate Game of Catch, Long Distance Slingshot Scoop Ball Set, Indoor & Outdoor Sports Toy for Kids & Adults Ages 8+ - Classic

Finally a positive review - After writing about some toys that were either junk or just boring it is nice to share a great product with other parents. My boys are now 10, 8 and 4 and all 3 love this game. it is a combination slingshot and catch. You hook the blue rubber-band that is attached to an orange ball to a small hook on the catching handle. You then slingshot the orange ball to the other person who catches it in their net. My kids are hooked. For a few weeks now they come to me and ask if I will play it with them in the yard. It is not a good individual game. You really do need 2 people to have more fun. They shoot it as high as they can to me and are always impressed if I can actually catch it...Oddly it has become a time to talk with each of them about their days at school. I am ordering another set so that 3 or 4 of us can play at the same time. We have lost a few in the trees so definitely order extra replacement sets. Now my 4 year old can do this but most of his friends cannot - he is more coordinated than an average 4 year old. I don't think my older boys could have pulled back the band to the ball while keeping it still hooked on the handle (picture if your child could use a slingshot). I think it would frustrate many 4 year olds. The djubi junior though I do not own looks like it is just smaller - I can't see wanting a smaller net to catch the ball in, nor do I think it would make pulling the slingshot any easier for a younger kid. It takes a few throws to get the hang of it but you will love it. It sits by our door and gets used weekly which as you know is rare for toys these days!!

I got this gift for my God son & he absolutely loves it! He plays it in the yard & in the pool with his friends. A great way to have fun outside, while being active. Super affordable gift for that hard-to-buy-for tweenage boy! Would highly reccommend.

Played this game lots of times. Balls can launch very high very accurately. For best accuracy, draw pointing downward as if shooting a long bow and then aim up with the ball resting against your inner elbow/bicep.The rubber bands on the balls do break, and be warned that they come in 3 sizes and the only good size is the large (which is the 4-pack). The medium (5-pack) is simply unusable and for some reason the physics just don’t work. Balls last a few hours of play each, or maybe a dozen hours if the user can’t put much strain on the band. The 4-pack of balls is what you want for replacements and the slingshot balls that come with the toy are the size large, so you won’t necessarily need replacements right away, but when you do get replacements make sure you get the size large. A 5-pack of balls or a six pack are the wrong ball size.

Got this for my son but I think I enjoyed it more than him. It’s easy to play but you can definately develop a skill to shooting the ball. I’m glad it came with 2 balls because one of them “got lost” The balls are kind of hard so I imagine getting hit by one might hurt but so far I haven’t encountered this. If you enjoy frisbee or ring sticks you will enjoy this

My grandkids love playing with this game.

The reviews sold me on this, so I will chime in - Djubi is exactly what I hoped for. I wanted a low-key, easy and entertaining beach toy to give my husband and I and our college-age sons something to do together on the beach. We have varying athletic ability (I'm at the low end), and this was perfect. It was easy to "shoot" a good distance and surprisingly easy to catch, once you get the hang of it. The wind factor introduces an entertaining challenge but still very do-able with a sea breeze. The ball is light and floats, so there's no panic about getting hit by the ball or if it falls in the water. The raquet/nets seem durable enough, although we've only used it for one vacation. I would think younger children would enjoy it too, as it sparked some interest from kids nearby and they wanted to "shoot" it. I am very happy with the launching aspect, because I just don't throw, hit or pitch well. This toy was a good choice.

Bought a set along with a frisbee to have some fun at a BBQ at Lake Tahoe. We started playing with Djubi first, and while it took some getting used to, it was lots of fun...until the netting started to tear down the middle on both catchers. We barely played for 30 minutes before I noticed the mesh ripping apart at the seam. We did not play aggressively at all.The balls and rubber bands held up fantastically, we even pulled them back as much as the catcher let us and it still held up just fine. Only if the darn netting would have kept up the same. We ended up slingshot-ing the balls ourselves with our hands. After we got tired of that, we broke out the good ol' reliable frisbee and had some fun.I was so excited to get this because of the reviews, but the Djubi gets a low score from me. I'll contact CS at Djubi and hopefully they can send me a replacement set.

We got these out for Memorial Day weekend and everyone who tried them enjoyed playing. The ball goes REALLY far, but is still easy to catch in the net (if you get close enough!). Got some exercise chasing the less accurate shots, and played for quite a while without it getting boring. A great alternative to frisbee or other back and forth games. The only issue is durability (3 stars). The rubber bands are already showing significant wear/degradation from stretching after only a couple of hours of use. I suspect they will break soon.
