Traveling or not

[potato]

If B hits the ball loose, A already lost possession so he can regain possession and can start a dribble, if B hits the ball, the ball is still on A's hand and A lost the ball, he can still regain possession as that is considered fumble, but if A never lost the ball all the while, it's a Travel.

I was trying to figure out if it is possible that B dislodges the ball from A1s hands but A1 still have control of the ball. It would seem that that would be impossible.

Impossible only for those who do not have the power to change the definition of control.

you can dislodge the ball from a player and still have the player in control of the ball unless he uses his legs or mouth or maybe armpit to keep hold of the ball.

A player dribbling the ball is said to be "in control" of the ball.

1) Using his legs is (likely) going to be "kicking" the ball and a violation.

2) Unless he was using his mouth or armpit in conjunction with his hands, then when it's dislodged from his hands PC is lost, even for just a second when the player re-gains control using his mouth or armpit.

Does it count as kicking if he holds the ball between his thighs?

BTW is it allowed to use a person's head to hit the ball like it's soccer, or football if you live in europe? i know some folks gets offended when you call soccer soccer instead of football.
