Title: Bionic Zone SS Extreme compared to what?
Post by: BrunsMike on September 25, 2006, 01:10:52 PM
Just what the topic askes. What ball does the Bionic Zone most resemble from the current Big B gear? Im looking at picking up 1 but if its a replica of something I already have then i wont need it. Right now I only have a Scorchin Inferno, Smokin Inferno, Vapor Zone x2, and Rampage x2.

Well what I should have said aside from Replica is, is what does this ball resemble? I dont want to buy something that I already have for overall lane look.

i would say it rolls more and is not as flippy on the back.  Im really not a brunswick guy but im sure one will chime in here.  If you have a chance to get one, i would get it, i wish i had another.  They are getting very rare, and are a good ball not many people knew about because its overseas, not to mention they look SWEET

I guess it goes between the Punisher and the Rampage, probably closer to the Punisher. It uses the same bell core, and the SS coverstock family is/was, as far as I know, a testbed for Activator versions (maybe some early form of the Advance stuff from the Smokin' I.). But that's no reliable information from my side

The SS reactive coverstock should be a modified version of Activator Advance.
Like Dizzy said it should between Rampage and Punisher. But I think it
near the Rampage more than the Punisher. My friend have one BZ 1 and he can
use it on the fresh oil, ball not skid too much than the Rampage.
