Post by: Traumatize on March 20, 2007, 02:33:01 AM: Ya that ball is money! I don't think it matter wat layout is on that ball, I think it will roll good.

On another note Nick, I am guessing you are bowling on a house pattern, and that is totally fine. I am wondering if you could get me a copy of that pattern. I love the fact that you are able to play multiple angles with ease. Our house pattern is very one angle, and it extremely unfair to guys like myself who are soft and like to get in. I would really appreciate it.

Post by: BrunsNick on March 20, 2007, 02:35:01 AM: I could try!

I'll see what the mechanics can cook up, or if they even have the capability to do that. I know we're on a Kegel Kustodian, and I think its one of their patterns, slightly modified.

Post by: Necromancer on March 20, 2007, 01:53:27 PM: Should all bowling balls be drilled with a RICO layout? How come only recently someone came up with the idea to put the pin in the center of the grip? I am confused.

Post by: neb5482 on March 20, 2007, 02:06:01 PM: That would be awesome if you could get that pattern to traumatize. They need to upgrade the house shot. I have too much hand to play up and when I get in carry disapears.

No, the layout isn't for everyone. High trackers will not benefit from this layout, nor will bowling on fried heads.

The layout has been around a while, I just made like Justin Timberlake and brought sexy back.

Nick, I just received my IO remake and was thinking about using the Rico layout. My axis is 41/2x 1/2 up,span 4 5/8. Do you think it would work for me? I bowl on wood lanes 40' heavy oil in center with dry backends. top hat I think. Thanks Great video as usual
I better get me a Inferno shirt now!
Title: Re: Rico Original Inferno *VIDEO*
Post by: BrunsNick on March 21, 2007, 01:42:23 PM: Yep! 4 1/2 PAP is safe for RICO

Rico is great when the backends are flying, let her rip!

At 5 1/2, we'd have to move the pin up in the grip to accomodate.
