If the ball bearing actually spun, wouldn't they be kinda slippery? Also, I'm thinking weight would be an issue and nobody would wear them. Most players already play with youth shin guards (or ridiculous minimalistic alternatives) to minimize the size, weight, uncomfortableness... I can't imagine they would choose these studs on the odd chance they prevent an ACL tear...

He mentioned the traction, only 3 studs would be the ball ones
