Spedball Land · Watch your back

One ball.
One chase.
Your move.

Capture the ball from your opponent’s back before they reach the end zone. Non-contact. All pursuit.

13 FORMATS. ONE SPEDBALL.

13 formats so far. More in development.

Land Capture · Football · Rugby · Jet Ski · Kayaking · Horseback · Parkour · Roller Skating · Snowboarding · Quad Bike · Track Running · Basketball · Camelback.

Capture the ball before the carrier reaches the end zone. Basketball uses shoot-and-score while the Spedball remains attached. Our first session focuses on 1v1 land capture.

AI-enhanced concept images illustrating Spedball across different sports. Formats are in development.

Land Capture

Reach the end zone before the opponent removes your back-mounted Spedball.

Football

Football with the Spedball kit; capture the back-mounted ball instead of tackling the player.

Rugby

Advance towards the end zone; a Spedball capture replaces a physical tackle.

Jet Ski

Only the rear passenger on each jet ski wears the Spedball kit. Concept in development.

Kayaking

Paddle towards the end zone while protecting the back-mounted Spedball.

Horseback

Capture the rider’s Spedball before the end zone. Helmets required.

Parkour

Navigate the course towards the end zone while protecting your Spedball.

Roller Skating

Skate towards the end zone while protecting your back-mounted Spedball.

Snowboarding

Reach the end zone before a permitted capture. Helmets required.

Quad Bike

Mounted capture concept using the Spedball kit. Format in development.

Track Running

Race towards the end zone, with capture permitted only in designated areas.

Basketball

No end zone. Shoot and score while your back-mounted Spedball remains intact and attached.

Camelback

Ride towards the end zone; capture the Spedball from the player ahead before arrival.

This is Spedball.

The basics
