Slide 2 of 9

Djubi

Djubi (pronounced JU-bee) is part lacrosse, part slingshot, and a whole lot of fun. The balls have an elastic loop attached -- you hook the loop onto the edge of the hand-held net, pull it back, and let it fly while the other player races to catch it. The set comes with two nets and two balls; additional balls are available.
