VIDEO: Toxic vs. The One vs. Epic Battle 1/15/07
« on: January 15, 2007, 02:21:41 PM »
Hi Everyone,

This footage was actually shot on December 19, 2006. I was practicing that night and decided to bring these 3 balls out to compare. Lanes were AMF Synthetic with a typical medium oiled type crowned out house pattern.

Overall, the Toxic with the Label Type layout was surprisingly very strong. I mentioned this in my earlier teaser video. Must be that Hammer Max Flip Reactive coverstock eh? I am pretty impressed to the say the least. Black Widow and Hawg Zilla on the way this week and look out for a new comparison video. Thanks everyone!

Here's the text I copied from my Youtube description section...
Toxic Vs. The One Vs. Epic Battle Video

Ebonite The One - Playing around 10 at the arrows, The One was able to clear the heads and midlane easily and made its' move to the pocket.

Hammer Toxic - Playing the same line, on my first shot with the Toxic, it had a stronger midlane read in comparison to The One and went brooklyn. A move left with my feet as well as chasing the oil inside, got me back into the pocket with the Toxic.

Roto Grip Epic Battle - With the current layout, the pin next to ring finger and MB kicked out gave this ball a "Hook Set" type reaction. As you can see from the video, it isn't as continous as the Toxic or One, but it is very "Rolly" in nature. This particular Battle was polished with Ebonite Factory Polish.

Hope this comparison video helps and if you have any questions, feel free to send me a message!

HEY RAMY!

Been quite awhile dude! Hope all is well for you! I definitely agree with the statement on the Toxic. I wasn't expecting it to be that strong either but wow indeed it is! Anyway, take care of yourself buddy! Maybe one day, I'll have enough $ saved back and I can make a trip to Cali. God Bless You and have a great week! Good vids buddy!

Yo Mikey!

Yeah man, long time no talk dude. Yeah, Toxic was way stronger than expected and flares a bunch too. I was thinking of punching a hole in it to calm it down, but why? Haha. I'd rather just keep it strong and get money's worth out of it LOL. Oh yeah man, if you come down to Cali, we can throw some around and you can meet Rick too! Take care bro.

Hey Ryan!

What's up brotha? Long time no talk as well. Ah, thanks for the praise. Every once in awhile I'll take my digital camera that can take short vids. Most of these are for analyzing diff ball motion and analyzing my game. I am a long way from being smooth hehe. As far as my game goes, I need to work on eliminating quick feet at times and getting lower at the line. If you watch most of my vids, my knee bend could be better, but I'm working on it!

Hope this vid helps and if anyone else wants to add anything, please do not hesitate to do so!

Regards,
Ram

Ram great vid comparison.  It seems like Hammer fits you well.  The TOXIC is strong!  Have you ever tried the DOOM?  I think you would love that ball as well.

Nice video's..but I'm not pro, but maybe the video is just looking like it...but it looks like you're RUNNING up to the line and your arm is swinging FAST after you release..but like I said, that might just be the video undercranked making it look faster...
Other than that, nice.

Great video saw your preview of the Toxic as well. I love mine got it before the Christmas break and man it keeps getting better. Saw 2 new ones appear in my Friday late league last week. Great mid-priced ball.
Any idea when you will have the full Toxic video complete?
