Bring Ball out of retirement??
« on: July 27, 2003, 01:05:04 AM »
I have an old 15lb Extreme Chaos.  it is probably my favorite ball ever made.  first 300 ball and had my 2 highest sets with it.  recently i bought another Extreme Chaos to replace my old one and after about 2-3 months it cracked on me.  now my old Ex Chaos is a lot weaker then the new one was.  but for some reason it seems like i can get the ball to work on almost any condition.  now should i bring this ball back out of retirement or get a different ball in place of the cracked Chaos.  look at my profile for my current arsonel and speed, revs, etc.  any advice is appreciated.

Replacement equipment should take into account what you are looking for in the ball...if the ball is working for what you need, then run with it and save the money for the time being...

I wish Columbia would bring back the AfterShock blue solid and red pearl...

Why not bring it back?
I had retired a number of old balls a couple of years ago.
After working with a coach, and changing my release considerably, I brought 'em back out - and they're like totally new balls!!
See my profile - you'll see what I mean.
