Reviews on Red Alert Flash anyone??
« on: May 22, 2006, 12:08:41 AM »
My local ball driller is recommending Red Alert Flash as scorching inferno is out of stock... Couldn't find any specs or reviews on it thou.

My requirments? Aggressive back end action/high hook potential on medium-oily lanes.

my ball registry:

It looks and sounds more like the Strike zone because it's solid activator and has the Zone asymmetric core.

Thanks for the link! I am very happy to find the specs on it.. Guess its less of a "mystery" ball for me now!

It has exactly the same specs as Strike zone. However, I am kinda iffy about Red Alert... how's the performance? any users of Red Alerts??

It is a Strike Zone in light/dark red. Activator solid, sanded, with Zone Classic core. Try this: http://www.brunswickkorea.co.kr/ball.html

My pro shop had some on display a couple of days ago, and I wondered what ball this might have been. Looks much like a Total Shock & Awe. It's pretty.

According to Brunswick Korea, it has the same numbers as the SZ regarding hook potential, shape, and length.  Pretty much a red version of the SZ.

This ball is a SZ intl version, our pro shop operator try this
and he said it move a little bit longer than the Original SZ.
By the way, he said  it is better than the original SZ because
our bowling center not a Heavy Oil pattern.

Nope.  Just going by the specs.  I suppose I should mention that red balls hook more, huh?
