The player can [[jump]] on top of it, then jump again to be propelled high into the air with a boosted jump. The player can jump even higher if they time the jump right when they contact the Spring Ball. Some Spring Balls can also be released by [[Winged Cloud]]s. Spring Balls come in two sizes: small (also called '''Small Arrow Balls''')<ref>{{cite|date=August 1996|title=''Nintendo Magazine System'' (AU) Issue #41|language=en-au|page=63}}.</ref> and large, which give an even stronger and higher jump boost.

In the [[Skelesaurus]] section of [[Skelesaurus Wrecks]] in ''Yoshi's Crafted World'', the Skelesaurus can knock down Spring Balls when in pursuit of Yoshi.

Spring Balls appear in ''[[Sonic Lost World]]'' in the [[Yoshi's Island Zone]] DLC level, released for free to owners of the [[Wii U]] version. Spring Balls replace the [[sonicretro:Spring|Springs]] found in the normal levels of ''Sonic Lost World''.<ref>{{cite|author=Carter, Chris|date=December 18, 2013|url=www.destructoid.com/impressions-sonic-lost-world-yoshis-island-zone|title=Impressions: Sonic Lost World Yoshi’s Island Zone|publisher=Destructoid|language=en|accessdate=June 22, 2024}}</ref>
