FIFA
World Cup USA, 1994, official ball which was enveloped in a
layer of polystyrene foam.
This not
only made it more waterproof but allowed the ball greater
acceleration when kicked. The new game ball felt softer to
the touch.
Improved ball control and higher velocity
during
play.

Questra:
USA, 1994

The above picture was provided by Sebastiano
Calì from Italy. Thanks!
The technical development for the Questra
took place in the adidas center for ball development in France,
followed by test games in France, Germany and the USA with
professional players, amateurs and youth teams. The design
embodied adidas's theme for the World Cup: innovation and "the
quest for the stars". The ball was manufactured from
five different materials with a flexible but durable outer
layer made from polyurethane. Inspired by space
technology, high velocity rockets and America’s “quest for the
stars”, Questra set new performance standards.
