Nice, you stay behind the ball very well, much power and forward roll.
Swing/release looks a bit muscled, and the slide is consequently short, but it looks as if you know what you are doing

Robb,

Greetings!

Thanks!  I was using an Ebonite Total NV and took the surface down to 2000 with an Abralon Pad. Really has made the ball my go to ball as so smooth and yet still strong.

Drilled with a modified #1 Drilling. The Pin is just above the Bridge, and the MB is about 1/2 closer to the thumb and no weight hole needed.

Dizzy,

Thanks!

Working on the swing. My timing was a bit off watching the video and I got the ball moving too early in my approach.  This caused me to muscle it a bit it looks like to try and keep my timing on.  I have been getting the ball started later with a more pronounced pushaway and seems to be better. I hope to have a video of that up in a couple days.

Thanks again!

Mike

Easy,

Sorry I was away for a couple days!

Ball speed is usually 15.4 when measured on the Qubica...from what I understand add a couple miles to that and should be speed through the deck...would make me 17.5 or so.  Can adjust up or down if needed but that is my comfort zone.

Me likey.  I like the balance, release and follow through.  I was actually watching this video before but I didn't know it was someone from this site.

Fluff,

Well thanks!

Working a little on timing as started the ball moving a little early in my delivery. Let's me get to the line a touch sooner which gives me a little bit more leverage and a very solid position at the line.

Thanks again for the comments!

Mike
