My son has liked the Red Zone for awhile....

This one? Cousin....other balls with that core?

The Vapor used the cover from the Absolute Inferno, but with asymmetric zone core (if my memory is correct). So yes, it's like the Zone Classic on steroids due to the stronger cover.

There was also an Elite ball with that core - the RS48. Looked like a ZC, it was a light oil ball and is probably a similar thing to the ZC Red Pin (maybe even the same ball - my theory is that leftover production was just labeled ZC Red Pin).

I sure remember mine. Shot my highest series( so far ) with it back in 2004. 289-289-269 for 847. Great ball, great reaction, great carry. Averaged 233 for the whole season with it.

I deffinatly think they should reuse that core in an upper mid priced line perhaps. It was so versatile for an asymmetric core, I love every ball I had with it. I still have 4 CZ and a RZ that i will never part with. They all get some league night use every year and one CZ is always in my tournament bag.

Somewhere in this post you mentioned Classic = Inferno and Vapor = Absolute. That is a great way of thinking about them. The difference the asym core makes is more angle off the spot. Classic (GP) was Activator over the asym zone core. Vapor was same core but Activator+. Both of these pieces were among my favorites. I still have both and a NIB Vapor just waiting in the wings.

Yes I agree anaconda = absolute. Notsure on rattler

« **Reply #27 on:** November 24, 2010, 07:02:07 PM »

The Rattler uses the Inferno cover with a different (but very effective) core design.

I am currently using my Wild Thing, Classic Zone, and Vapor Zone as my main choices out of the bag. The Wild Thing is the weakest of the 3 for me, probably based on drilling. I have a buddy whose Wild Thing goes crazy.

The Classic is still my midrange ball. The Vapor is a step up.

I have NIB Wild Card, Python, Anaconda that I'm hoping will have the same types of gaps between them.
