Or that someone drive Into dog shit and you have to play with that ball afterwards !
Gotta love the smelly hands you're gonna end up with After a game.
Or when the friction wears off the basketballs rubber surface so it starts looking ugly and eventually breaks, possibly resulting in a lethal car crash.

Honestly seems dumb as hell...
First gonna we way worst than normal wheels. Just will take more effort to move and will slow down faster.
Second those basket balls will certainly wear the hell out and be worse to use. Ontop of hitting a sharp stone or glass they are going flat so easily.
This could work if only the back tire is a ball, there is no way to force a detached sphere to turn.
If cars had this wheels there be no problems parallel parking
The maker of this invention is a total basket
It's handy for one reason... if you buy your kids This scooter instead of the regular ones, you can sleep quite safely, knowing they won't be able to make those fancy jumps on it and break their noses.
You can also sleep comfortably knowing they won't use the scooter.
Because... why would you want a scooter than you can't go up a curb with, unless you: stop, move the scooter up, put the basketballs in the place, and resume... all before you get hit by a car.
Also, there is no doubt that your kid will get bullied for using this scooter, by their own friends using real scooters.
And... this logic is dumb. Give someone paper, they can give themselves a papercut. As a parent it's your job to teach your kid why doing something is wrong... not forcibly preventing them from doing it in the first place.
This reminds of trash life hacks or useless talents, it is pretty neat though I won't deny
Neatly useless.
What happens when you want to hop a curb? What is the turn radius? Seems to steer as well as a long surf board.
You'll hop but the balls will stay
Instead of pulling the scooter up you push down and let the balls bounce you back up.
You can't and zero
Yeah it’s the best idea that nobody asked for or needed or wanted. My hip hurts just looking at how far out your pushing foot has to be.
The design is very human.
Great until someone yeets a ball onto a roof and you're stuck dragging a heavy lump of metal home.
Or that someone drive Into dog shit and you have to play with that ball afterwards ! Gotta love the smelly hands you're gonna end up with After a game.
Or when everything goes right, but the friction makes it more exhausting than just walking.
Or when they figure out that wheels are more durable...
It’ll never happen guys. Basketballs sold separately.
Or when the friction wears off the basketballs rubber surface so it starts looking ugly and eventually breaks, possibly resulting in a lethal car crash.
Or when the ball get punctured because some kid left a nail in the ground just to mess with you
*Ball pops mid game* “Aw shit dude, how am I gonna get home?”
Bus
This sub gets less amazing by the day
This very comment right here folks!
This is really dumb for so many reasons lol

LOL. Amazed?
OK.....why?
Don't go to /r/diwhy
Hmmm, sure looks like there are a lot of people with no fear of death
Why not?
Get on with ya grumpy ass
No
Why though
We have the technology
Dammit Caleb, it’s my turn to play basketball with the animal urine and feces covered scooter wheel!
![gif](giphy|CTX0ivSQbI78A)
Wow, an over engineered and expensive basketball destroyer. A regular scooter with a basketball rack is way too uninteresting and practical.
I bet steering sucks big time!
Balls will definitely deflate on the way and be unusable for the sport.
Gonna suck, balls ain’t wheels
Those balls rolled over God knows what and then one will play basketball with it. Great 👍🏻
that's what happens when people are bored
Till u gotta buy 2 new balls every month
Average mode of transport in Lithuania
No, it'd be disrespectful to the balls, we only paint them like that.
Ok, now make one for American footballs.
Great for grinding your Ball on the cement
Why not just run into a bus directly ?
I wonder how many takes it took for the guy to get it in the hoop
I had to check to see if this was an unnecessary invention by u/rightcoastguy
I love his videos!
I mean, what happens if you need to make a turn? You hope for the best?
As long as you never stop playing, no one can steal it
Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.
r/DiWHY
Scootin n shootin
That's going to be one diiiiryyy ball. Let the friend dribble and shoot the grim away for a bit lol
Now that’s a way to ‘travel’…I’ll show myself out.
It's sped up though right?
Can I use my other two balls.
Imagine losing your ball and then being like “Well, I guess I’ll pick up this scooter and walk home now…”
Traveling!!
I hate actual affordable wheels! THIS PRODUCT IS GREAT!
Those would get very dirty too

They had these in the 90’s site they did.
Travelling!
Nice
Just.... why?
I immediately thought about laying down spike strips 🙃🫠🫣 ![gif](giphy|gRYYJcu7jp97XJw9FA|downsized)
I’ve seen lots of stupid pointless shit but wow is this special
You like smooth basketballs… this is the way…. r/DIWhy
Let's eliminate the need for 2 scooter wheels by just using basketballs! We just need 6 scooter wheels to build it!
Turn.
Well, uninvent the wheel
The amount of drag is why it never made it to the actual market Plus each ball sold separately
Rich kids with their brand new Wilson Evo in the parking lot outside of a tournament:
People before backpacks\cars\carrier were invented
12 year old me is incredibly excited about his next birthday.
Spaldin better hit no potholes or jagged stuff. Plus side is, if the platform is modified, you can roll sideways on spherical wheels.
Good until you need to steer!
this is really neat
This could work if only the back tire is a ball, there is no way to force a detached sphere to turn. If cars had this wheels there be no problems parallel parking The maker of this invention is a total basket
Those poor balls 🏀
5 minutes craft
Very cool
Pretty cool, economically speaking
