Stability ball with legs

[editstein]

Would it be ok to use this one instead of the regular ?
It should avoid slipping on the floor......
I am going to buy one and have have a marble floor.....very slippery
Thanks for Ur suggestions !

I'm not Cathe, but I've seen these balls. I think the legs are most useful to prevent the ball from slipping when there is no one sitting on it. Once you get the weight of a person on, I would think the "teets" would collapse. Another alternative is a "nobby" ball, that has small bumps all over it. I got a Reebok one from qvc.com, but haven't used it yet.

In Italy we don't have those at the moment but thanks for the info, it seems like this one should not slip around......
Any other opinions about balls with feet :7 ?

Hi Samantha! If slipping is your only concern, rather than get another shaped ball, I would suggest getting a carpet remnant, say (10x10), and put a non-slip thin rubber liner under it. I put this thin liner under my throw rugs at home so that the rugs don't slide on the tile. It works great. Good Luck!

I have one of these and I like it. It works just as well as a ball without the legs and doesn't roll away when I set it down. I would think it would work fine on your floor. Anyway, just wanted to say I use this type of ball and it's fine.
