Let’s be honest: if you play pickleball regularly, you’ve probably tossed a cracked ball or five into the trash without thinking twice. Multiply that by millions of players across the country, and we’ve got a massive plastic problem on our hands.
But one company is changing that—without sacrificing the game we love.
Introducing the CB-PRO, the world’s first biodegradable pickleball designed specifically for pro-level outdoor play. Developed by Professional Pickleball Partners (Pro-Pickle), this ball isn’t just eco-friendly—it’s tournament-ready, USAP-compliant, and built to perform just as well (if not better) than your current favorite.
A Ball That Breaks the Mold—Literally ♻️
What makes the CB-PRO special? It’s engineered using a proprietary biodegradable material that fully breaks down in 350–450 days under normal environmental conditions—not hundreds of years like traditional plastics. Even better? It leaves zero toxic residue behind.
So instead of adding to the landfill pile every time a ball cracks or warps in the sun, you’re choosing a ball that’ll literally disappear over time. Not bad for a sport that’s exploding in popularity (and consumption).
Performance Without Compromise
We know what you’re thinking—“Sure, but can it play?” Oh, it can.
The CB-PRO features:
- A durable one-piece roto-cast design (for fewer cracks and better longevity)
- A standard 40-hole outdoor layout that mirrors what players already know
- A fast, crisp feel that mimics the best balls on the market
- A design optimized for consistent bounce and flight, even after heavy use
Tested and pproved by Pros 🏅
Need more convincing? Top-ranked pro players Hunter and Yates Johnson had this to say after testing:
“The CB-PRO is a very high performing ball. It has a great feel, consistent bounce and flight, and performs just like the top outdoor balls on the market. This ball could easily be used in pro-level tournaments.”
That’s not marketing fluff—that’s endorsement from players who live and breathe elite-level competition.
Why It Matters
Pickleball is fun. But like any fast-growing sport, it comes with an environmental cost—especially when it comes to plastic waste. Most pickleballs are made from hard plastics that take centuries to break down. As usage grows, so does the pile of cracked, discarded balls that end up in landfills or waterways.
The CB-PRO is the first serious solution that doesn’t ask you to compromise on performance. It plays great, feels familiar, and helps clean up our sport’s environmental footprint—one serve at a time.
Where to Get It
You can snag the CB-PRO directly at compost-a-ball.com—and yes, that’s really the URL.
Whether you’re a tournament regular or just a rec player who goes through a lot of balls (we see you, bangers), this is your chance to upgrade your game and your impact.
Because hitting a clean winner is great…
But hitting one with a biodegradable ball?
Even better. 💚
