Overview
The Champion Sports Rhino slam ball is a sand filled, no bounce medicine ball with a rubber tread surface, sold in weights from 6 to 50 pounds for strength and conditioning work.
Slam balls trade the bounce of a wall ball for a sand core that stays put when it hits the floor, which matters if you're doing dead stop slams rather than catch and throw drills. Champion sells the Rhino across a wide weight ladder, so a household or gym can stock a few sizes instead of one ball everyone fights over. Reviewers across very different uses, golf rotational training, family gym sessions, a 10 year old's off season conditioning, all point to the same tread pattern holding the grip.
- Sand filled core for a no bounce landing
- Rubber tread surface for secure grip
- Sold in weights from 6 to 50 lb
- Rated 4.7 from 230 reviews
Who it's for
Suits lifters, golfers doing rotational power work, and families building a shared home gym across a few weight levels. Less suited to anyone who wants a ball that bounces back for wall ball tosses.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Buyers across very different use cases, golf rotational drills, family gym sessions, a child's off season training, consistently praise the tread grip and note the ball holds its shape rather than flattening after repeated slams. One reviewer found packaging left them hunting for a pump pin, a minor inflation note rather than a complaint about the ball itself.
