    Default Clicking?

    Hey guys, I got my first powerball today, a Neon regular, and it looks really nice. However, I notice that it clicks a lot, for instance when I turn it over it clicks, and when I have it running (no idea of the speed, but i'd assume that as I'm a noob it's not that fast) it clicks a whole lot. I'll try and get some video footage later for you guys, but till then, do any of you think I may have a dodgy powerball?

    Thanks.

    It is possible that it has been damaged in the post but it could be something else.

    Hmm, I really hope not...

    To describe the sound, it's kinda like a ball bearing rolling around inside it when it is rolled in one direction, but not the other. :S

    Could just be your technique, buddy. I noticed on my neons that at slow speed, if my technique is not 100%, there is a slight click or knocking noise. Is the click still evident if you really speed it up? If not, it's just a matter of getting your grip and rotation spot on, I believe.

    If it's clicking one direction but not the other, sounds like a dent in one of the running surfaces. Take the ball apart and look at each hemisphere's running surface.
