Set of 3 La Boule Bleue Boules — Carbon 120 Semi-soft

The preferred triplet for mid-range players. The Carbone 120 is the ultimate versatile, all-terrain pétanque ball – equally adept at pointing and on very hard ground. After an initial quenching, it undergoes a second firing which softens its surface for cushioning that favors precise shots.

From the very first game, the protective black varnish wears off – the ball then acquires a sober and elegant matte appearance, for an excellent grip.

Care tips

Carbon steel is an alloy that oxidizes. Store your triplette in a dry place, preferably at home, and avoid humid places. Do not leave your balls in the car trunk – temperature variations promote the appearance of surface rust.

• After each game, wipe the balls carefully with a cloth
• If not playing for several weeks, apply a greasy substance such as WD-40 to protect the steel
• Regular maintenance preserves the long life of your balls
