10:24 I did not expect that they wind plenty of yarn around the bladder part for reinforcement. Basically these balls are made quite similar like tyres.

6:09 What are those yellow granules?

[@BigDogRidgeback]

I'm totally blown away. I always thought Basketballs grew wild in Harlem N.Y.

1:10 Is it natural or syntetic rubber? Or what else?

[@andreapicci8410]

4:40 What material is the white powder?

[@ivanborgia3384]

Basically antioxidant and reinforcing fillers, to make the rubber hold longer.
