How is everyone liking the new 900 Global pieces?
« on: August 17, 2012, 10:14:13 AM »
Anyone have any feedback? The more I hear about the Freight Train, the more I like it. Can't wait to put holes in The Look, and the Sure Thing keeps looking better and better.

I've decided that with this batch of new stuff, I am going to drill it all the same way, and let surface dictate where it hooks. I have a second NIB Train sitting waiting for me to take it to get it drilled, and I am going to compare it to the Freight Train, and if I am feeling saucy, taking video.

Sweet, appreciate it bruh! So in this case, the stronger cover on the sym outhooks the bigger core ofthe asym. Cover has a lot to do with it as well, but definitely, both are a must have. Global/AMF is making some great looking pieces and peeked my interest.

Personally, everyone needs a black eagle in their bag.

So far I have drilled the Sure Thing and The Look. I like both. The ST (65 x 4.25 x 35) is going to be one of the first balls out of the bag. It is a perfect benchmark piece for me. Should be a THS killer. The Look (80 x 4.75 x 25) is a nice length control piece for me. Lets me stay a little closer to the friction because it doesn't overreact off the spot. Not quite as strong as I expected it to be but that also is a kind of weak layout. Should see a lot of action when the backends are flying.....I might drill the Green Mamba and the Freight Train eventually.

Yeah, the ST is pretty good looking. Funky colors, but who cares what color it is?

In the order of what I like the most:

Bull Whip (by a wide margin)
Cobra
Freight Train (only good on Shark and US Open)
Look (mid length sport pattern, hooks to much for me on THS)
Sure Thing (My fault, I drilled it to weak.  Can use it on Cheetah)
