I haven't seen the 20/20 video for several years (and I wasn't involved in the competiton back in 93) but it looked to me like the water was used only to add weight to the balls, not to change the motion. It would be the same effect if they had been completely filled with sand.

Would someone involved back then care to elaborate?
