Any match ball will do, but I'll write you some here: Europass, Terrapass, Teamgeist, Finale (6,7,8,9,10,11), Adipure 2011.

Of course there is a big gap in price, because match balls are way better:

1) They are durable, they will/can last for years.
2) They have thermal bonding, which keeps the ball in the original shape, and the replica (sportivo, capitano) are stitched.

I have both match ball (terrapass) and replica (jabulani glider), and the replica one started getting bigger or something like that, because some stitches snapped.

But if the match ball is too expensive for you right now, buy Finale 10, Wembley or 11 Top Training ball. They are between match balls and replicas. They have thermal bonding, but no "pimples" on the panels.
Here are some pictures:

Finale 10 Top Training:

Finale 11 Top Training:

My friend has got the Finale 11 TT, and it is awesome.

Hope I helped you. :)

There isn't any, it's the same ball, just different design.

Top Sportivo = Top Training

Same ball, different name (depending on country/market).

You mean Terrapass? Yes, it is loosing the air quickly, but it is a great ball to freestyle with.

The best ball I saw is the Finale 7 (I think Linde has it). It is so fucking beautiful!

There are 3 pics.
Does your ball have stiches, and panels like this :http://www.newitts.com/images/products/800x800/it035635.jpg ?
Or the panels are in star shape?

All match balls are the same to freestyle. Freaking good. Only difference I have spotted between these balls is freestyling with teamgeist while raining, the ball gets unbelievable slippery.

I would choose Teamgeist, red if possible. Looks cool to me. But like Alex said, you can't go wrong with any of the official match balls.

Ebay. Alex already gave you a link. It is good, the rating is 100%, which means it is a good seller.
But you can buy a normal, black and white teamgeist, same thing, I said red because it looks awesome. I've tried it, and it is one of the best balls on the market right now.

siempre te puedes comprar el official macht ball replica, es más barato y está acolchado, y el acolchamiento es muy bueno para los combos.

What do you guys think of the adidas Jabulani MLS Competition Ball? Pretty decent price at $59.99, not too expensive. I'd get the '07 CL match ball, since you guys speak so highly of it, but I can only find it on ebay for $200!

Don't know. My friend has it, and it is awesome. Great deal  :great:

For me Europass is the best, i don't like Jambulani that much, I just got the FInale ball with blue stars(i think finale 11 or 10) and its pretty awesome -  i haven't tried any adidas ball without the dimples so i cant say whether their better

It's Jabulani, and the blue stars ball is the Finale 10 ;)

There is a topic for this right below this one ;)

Europass is a great ball for me (I own the powerorange Europass). I also have a Terrapass. They're both great balls and I'd reccommend them :) I used to own the Champions League 10 ball and it wasn't as good as the 2 balls I have now!!

I love powerorange matchballs.  They look awesome.

What matchball is the best to freestyle a'la Japan style?

They use the Speedcell in the WFS League, but it doesn't have to mean that ball is the best for Japanese style.

When you buy a ball, you need to make sure it is good for you. We just give you some tips, we tell you which one is more durable, more grippy and stuff like that. The ball choice depends only on freestyler. For example, for some people, RBSS Monta is good, but for me it's shit covered with denim.

It depends... I don't like any new Finale matchballs (10, Wembley, 11) so much. Yes, they are matchballs so it guarantees quality but they aren't round at all, lol.

That's actually like $48. I'd definitely buy it, but I've never bought from I website that I can't read.

But anyway, is the adidas F50 TSBE any good?

Hey, sorry for not replying on your post, I didn't noticed there were some new posts in this thread.

I haven't tried the F50 ball, but I've got the Glider Jabulani, which has the same panels, stiched. It is great, for 20€. I've used it about 6,7 months, and it worked for me.

its very pricey and hard to find these days its occasionally on ebay every now and then, but the finale 6 is by far the best for freestyle in my opinion i bought one over a year ago swapped it and missed it soo much i bought another one, love the design, no pimples but i find it has more grip than the new matchballs with pimples, white with red and black outlined stars btw. highly recommended
