Frequently asked

Does JING make a silent basketball?
Not yet. JING V1 is a silent football. A silent basketball is being explored as a 2026 H2 release. To be notified when it launches, join the launch list at playjing.com.
What is the best silent basketball available today?
In The Lab makes the best-known silent basketball. They own the athlete-creator side of the silent ball category. JING's basketball, when it ships, will sit in a different aesthetic position — closer to a designed object than a creator-tool.
Can I train basketball seriously at home in an apartment?
Yes, with a silent basketball and a suitable surface. Hardwood floors, sealed laminate, and outdoor-rubber tiles all work. Avoid carpet over concrete and any surface where the bounce-back is unpredictable.
