I don't have any of these balls but, I have a couple of buddies who do. The original Inferno is not quite as angular as the Absolute. I bowled with a 14 year old phenom who has a lot of revs and the has the Hybrid dirty bomb and the Absolute. The Absolute goes a little longer and is not as strong as the Hybrid. So if you're looking for control and a earlier roll get the Inferno. If you're looking for a little later roll and a more angular backend get the Absolute. They are both great medium oil balls. I think the Hybrid is better but cost more.
