“The simple picture is that Trionda may very slightly punish extreme distance, but it should reward clean technique and predictable flight,” says team member John Eric Goff, who researches sports physics and is an incoming professor of engineering practice at Purdue University.  “Goalkeepers, defenders hitting long passes, and long-range shooters are where I would look first for visible differences.”  Researchers used a wind tunnel to study the Trionda ball at the University of Tsukuba.
