For who?

  • The Obut CX COU strie 1 boule meets the expectations of the most demanding pétanque players on all types of terrain.
  • Its exceptional balance is particularly appreciated by pétanque players who like to finish by rolling their boule.
  • Player profile: Pointer/Polyvalent/Shooter:
    • Pointer: ideal for pointing without spin (roulette) & 1/2 range
    • Versatile: half-soft ball, perfect for the ‘milieux’ and jeu provençal.
    • Shooter: 4m rafle & iron shot.

For what surface and what type of game?

  • Suitable for use on stony and tarmac surfaces, and particularly on slightly gravelly surfaces.
  • Appreciated over long distances and in Provençal games.
  • Ideal for shooting from 4m in front.
  • Features the well-known black ‘COU’ pattern, which gradually disappears with use, giving players a good ‘grip’ in the hand.
  • Low impact marking on the surface of the ball.

Finish

  • The Obut CX COU strie 1 competition pétanque boule has a black coating when it is supplied to the consumer.
  • As requested by good players, the ‘black’ fades very quickly after the first few games. If the boule is left unused for a while, a fine oxidation of the surface will appear, which will delight pétanque players looking for a grippy feel in the hand.

Maintenance

  • The Obut CX COU petanque boule, made from carbon steel, needs cleaning after each game and at least once a month if it is not used.
  • We recommend the Obut maintenance product.

A little Obut advice

Do not leave your boules sets in the boot of your car, as they are exposed to sudden changes in temperature, which can lead to condensation.
Do not store your boules sets in bags with a foam compartment. The permanent humidity of the foam increases the oxidation of the boules.
These high humidity conditions will, in the long run, be detrimental to your boules by encouraging their oxidation.
Remember to take your balls out of the boot of your car or a bag with a foam compartment to store them in a dry place.

What elements should you keep for the warranty t?

  • The warranty card located on the flap of the box.
  • The exterior facing label.
