I think he was referring to the actual ball, not the effects of it.
To that end, both balls were specified to be 30" diameter (
FIRST Frenzy source) (
Hangin'-A-Round source). However, the 2004
field manual specifies that the 2X balls were 34" balls inflated to 30", something not specified for the ball in Hangin'-A-Round. The KOP balls had ridges to them, while the field versions didn't. The latter, if memory serves me right, was sourced from Sport Fun. (I remember it was printed on the underline of the 2X--anyone got one to confirm this?)
That said, the
Atlas ball from VexLabs appears to have ridges, but it's a different color (and the KOP 2X ball never photographed with that kind of glare as far as I can remember). Is it actually different? I can't say--but it might be a starting point if you can't wait until October.
