Dredge.
We've started playing with an orangey ball, I think it's from street hockey. A bit lighter than polo, and a bit harder. Seems to stand up to the heat A LOT better than a polo ball and makes the game more fun - faster passes, bigger shots, more speed overall.
Is there any room for experimentation with weights/densities at tournaments? They are mostly in the summer, and often the balls are warm, soft and squidgy which really fucks up the game IMO.
Although I haven't been to any this summer, so maybe the problem is fixed?
