I wish I could use there equipment but all I get is cracking after a few months and its not worth wasting money.  Just so I don't get slammed for my comment, I have other manufacturers equipment stored in the same area and drilled by the same person and only issues I have is with 900 Global/AMF equipment.

TF, I understand what you're saying. I just haven't experienced it. Only time my stuff cracks is if I've plugged it and drilled right back into the plug, and then let it sit forever.

S^, this ball just bumped another 900 out of the bag. Was going to punch a Incinerate, Heat Stroke, Solar Flare, then a Protocol, Hard Drive, and Desert Hook, but I think it just moved into the Protocol's spot...

Kid, I've been telling people that AMF really stepped it up this year. Every time I see a Heat Stroke, it looks awesome, and really can't wait to (finally) get my hands on an Incinerate. Now this? Radar with an updated cover? YES. PLEASE.

No doubt they have been making great stuff for years. I have a Clutch pearl sitting in the closet waiting to be drilled. If I bowled more I would try some of their equipment out no doubt. I have a closet full of undrilled Brunswick stuff on top of what I have drilled. Bowling one day a week it is over kill lol.

I love my Clutch Pearl. Clean thru the fronts, with a big move and set up at the hole.

Recently bought the incinerate and i must say i am very impressed. Just wished they would of used the F90 cover on the pearl also. I have a feeling this is just going to be a very overpriced OMG pearl. If your going to charge top dollar for a ball put a top dollar cover on it not an upper mid performer.

I have a feeling F90 Pearl might have been too much overlap. This is very similar methodology to what they did with the Mega Friction (Hook in a box) and the Mega Recovery. F81 vs F75. The MR was much more usable on a THS than the MF. Bank Roll had a stronger cover than either of the other Banks. There is a reason they didn't use F90 pearl. Remember, F73 is still plenty strong. Most of the Breaks/Eagles had S70, Dirty Look has S73 pearl, etc. There's a reason for a gap. OMG pearl was a totally different shape than the OMG. This is the same shape, with some densities changed.

It definitely was discussed during testing and discussion of the Incinerate Pearl to pearlize the F90 Coverstock and polish it up.  Unfortunately, the F90 shell was just too strong, so even with the added length of pearl and polish it still provided a very smooth arcing motion (while still being really aggressive).  The F73 Pearl coverstock was chosen because of its notorious snappy qualities downlane, which we felt would allow our bowlers an aggressive skid/flip reaction that would not overlap with the Incinerates flat out hook.

You can expect the Incinerate Pearl to fit very nicely in between the Solar Flare and Incinerate in our current product lineup.

If anyone has any other questions regarding the new Incinerate Pearl or AMF/900 Global's current product line, feel free to email me at thomasr@900global.com.

I totally understand and respect where you're coming from in regards to designing this ball. I just wish companies what take a chance and design something different and design something outside of the box instead of just coming out with the same stuff over and over every year. I mean really how many balls can you come out with the f 70 and F 73 cover on it and truly have that big of a difference in ball motion. It would have been nice to throw something different. take for example the virtual gravity Nano and the virtual gravity nano pearl, same cover same core same numbers and they were flying off the shelves. not trying to compare companies by any means but those are the edgy qualities that really make the balls sell. once again not trying to start an argument on here or compare companies but just trying to figure out the method behind the madness.
