3 new nuggets coming out
« on: June 05, 2012, 09:13:45 PM »
A green Mamba, Cobra special edition, and the Bull Whip special edition. 

The green Mamba appears to be using the asymmetrical SRC technology.  it is F74 and finished with a T pad with a low RG. 

The Cobra SE has the light bulb core with a F74 cover @ 4k abralon.  Low flaring with a strong cover.  Should b interesting.

The Bull Whip SE.  No info other than they put a F73 polished pearl coverstock.  I can only assume it will be pretty angular.

Sevenpin,

They don't get released until July. You know I can't wait! I think that green Mamba would look sweet in your hands. The cobra too. From the looks of it, the bull whip is gonna be pretty strong off the spot.

Something looks --- unusual -- with the core differential numbers for the Cobra SE.
http://www.amf300.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=174&Itemid=204
The RG differential for 16 lbs is .017"
While the differential for 13 - 15 lb. balls is .045".

Coverstock:        F74             Wt   RG      Diff    
Color:            Black         16    2.550  0.017    
Finish:           4,000 Abralon 15    2.570  0.045    
Core Type:         Symmetric     14  2.582  0.045    
Sku#    1793-02                       13  2.600  0.045    
Available Wts:    12-16 lb.        12  2.621  0.044

ADDENDUM (6/11/12): I just saw this on another web site for the differential of the Cobra SE. I think it is the true differential for 14 - 16 lb. weights:
RG:       16#-2.550, 15#-2.563, 14#-2.584
RG: Diff 16#-0.017, 15#-0.017, 14#-0.015

My guess is that someone missed the 4 on the number pad, and hit the 1. I already have a layout in mind for that cobra!

 Glad I'm not the only one who saw that. Just came to post about it, but see Jeff beat me to it (as usual).

Umm, Green Mamba is at an E pad, not a T pad. So, it's a Bank Roll with a slightly weaker cover.

Yeah. Green Mamba is going in my bag. Reminds me of my Nitro/R ... colorwise. Love the src.

Nice video.  IMHO, having Nick and Eric demonstrate this ball is good for the company.   Also nice to see the other folks in there too.  Definitely showed the versatility with the different styles.  I loved my Bank and the Green Mamba looks like it will compliment it very well.

This has to be one of the better comparison videos out, showing multiple styles.  I found it interesting that AMF is now using the SRC that first came out in the 900Global Bank/Bank Pearl/Bank Roll balls.  In either case, AMF seems to be making some good pieces as of late.

I have the double clutch pearl and 2 shred it's.  The shred it's for me is very versatile with the hybrid coverstock.  The double clutch pearl is a good med-dry ball.  When i have to shell down from my break out or the original break, the double clutch comes in very handy.

Another ball i would love to see out of AMF is another hybrid symmetrical core ball.  Somewhere in the f65 range with a 'A' finish.  I wouldn't mind  another Cobra coming out with this cover.  A light bulb core?  Hmm.....

Enough already! The other videos now! Can't wait to see the other AMF pieces, along with the look.

Btw... what does the Bull Whip weightblock look like to you?

To me.. reminds me of a Track Freakazoid! Yes please!

Also... Britton, where's the videos??? :)
