The Reality Check features the S84 Beta Hybrid coverstock at a 4K Fast finish, and the strong asymmetric Disturbance core from the Reality and Altered Reality at a 2.49 RG, .052 differential, and a .018 intermediate differential. The Check represents a slightly different look from the other two Realities, it seems to be a little more patient and refined, where the Reality and Altered were more aggressive and energetic so to speak. The Check is more of a strong hard arc that resembles a cleaner, asymmetric Phaze 2, and does somewhat resemble a cleaner Reality. Like the other two Realities, it prefers covering boards, but it gets much easier length than either the Reality or Altered. It’s definitely not an Altered replacement, the overall reaction and shot shapes are quite a bit different, and I don’t feel like there’s much if any overlap between it and any of the other big asyms in the catalog right now. It’s longer and faster than the Infinite PhysiX, it’s much longer than the RST X-3, it’s longer and sharper than the Dark Code, plus a little weaker., etc. It’s a definite step down from balls like the Gem, Proton PhysiX, and Reality, but a ball up from weaker asyms like the RST X-2, Rubicon UC2, and the Nova.
