I love using sponge balls. You really have to practice with them, because for quite a while, some of my sharper friends could follow what I was doing at certain points, but once you really smooth your moves out and make it look natural enough- they are great. I like using them for kids or on the stage because they are colorful and can be seen farther away. They are an odd prop to carry around on the street sometimes, and alot of people think they are clown noses at first.
Great quality sponge balls! Everyone needs a spongeball routine and so everyone needs spongeballs- I reckon these ares are the best ones out there. These are good value for money too! Worth getting!
Every magician should have a set of sponge balls. You get high-quality materials that can be used in many different routines. Sponges pack small and play big. These are perfect for any magician practicing basic slights.

Sponge balls! Classic simplicity. These little guys are true gems and a must for anyone wanting to perform strolling magic. I don't mean performing them is a must, I mean having a bunch of sponge balls. You are gonna lose them. A lot and often. So be prepared a buy a bunch. Red's good. Green is better.
Hi! This is your official PenguinMagic reviewer, B_Magic.
My very, very first trick that I ever bought. That was years ago, and to this day I still carry them around with me. Sponge Balls are great!
What I like about sponge balls is that they have the ability to amaze all sorts of audiences. I perform them on kids, and they are entranced by it. I perform them with women, and they fall in love with it. I've had hard core skeptics tear about any miraculous card trick I do, and have been dumbfounded by sponge balls. It's because of their simplicity that the magic becomes powerful. And there are so many things you can do with sponge balls, the possibilities are extensive.
My problem with them is that they are fairly popular with magicians (and clowns, which I do NOT want to be compared to), and that they are unnatural items, so a bit of skepticism comes with them most of the time. Also, though the tricks you can do with them are solid, it's not quite the miracle-level status I like that have with my tricks.
If you like the effect, they are worth a buy. I would recommend getting Noblazada's "Sponge" DVD as well.
