Title: Smash Zone Surface
Post by: Gunny on April 14, 2009, 09:41:08 AM

Does anyone have their SZ at 4000abralon?  If so, how does it roll
compared to OOB?  4000 + Polish, how does it roll?

4000 plus polish will go VERY long. 4000 abralon is very good in my opinion.

I had mine both at 4.000 Abralon and Rough Buff. Both options made the ball much more consistent for me, even though it would read the lane considerably earlier. Rough Buff was a bit smoother than pure 4.000 Abralon, though, and the ball still kept its good length through the heads even with the sheen surface.

No idea how it would work at 4.000 plus polish - I'd assume that it would glide on any oil on the lane and become very unpredictable in the back end, but I haven't tried this with mine, just a guess from experience so far with it.

considering oob is 400 wetsand with polish, you can imagine 4000 abralon plus polish isn't gonna wrinkle. I've tried numerous different surfaces on my smash zone, including 4000 plus polish, and none gave me a reaction better than oob. 4000 no polish was similar to oob, but a little weaker on the back.
