The website shows it in the mid performance category, is listed for medium heavy oil, but some reviews say it is for heavy oil. What's the deal? And why is there so little talk about it?
-
it is a solid benchmark type ball for medium-medium heavy. columbia has it in the mid performance category and no one talks about it because it doesnt have a lightning bolt on the side of it lol
-
You mean a solid ball as in well performing? I thought it was a hybrid cover :P yeah those lightning bolts are over thrown lol. Do like my roto grip outlaw though
-
yes lol. its everything i look for in a benchmark ball. heavy rolling, digs in the midlane and smooth throughout the lane. i hate balls that boomerang which i guess is the reason the only storm ball i like is the iq tour solid
-
Yes, this ball is very strong in the midlane. It does have a hybrid cover using the cover from the Vow and the cover from the Oathe. Same weight block as used in the Eruption line which has been ever so popular. I think its release was a little close to the Orang ball (Eruption Pro) so it kind of got over shadowed. But yes, this ball rolls great with a heavy roll, strong arcing motion. You can also shine it up for a little length. I have two, one with surface for heavy oil, and one shined up so I can move in a circle the lane.

LOL… So you're saying if I etched a bolt on the side, bowlers might really notice mine? :D
Good description of the Disorder. Mine reminds me of a slightly stronger version of the Rival -- the piece Chris Barnes called his 80% ball, because it could be used on almost anything but the extremes.
Anything with the Resurgence core is going to get my attention. I've owned a lot of balls, and I don't think I've experienced a better core. A two ball combination of the Eruption Pro (also has the Resurgence core) and the Disorder will cover almost any condition you'd likely see.
Columbia has come out with two absolute winners that not a lot of people know about.

its a great piece, designed to replace the outburst.
very even rolling, very predictable piece.
presently have it at 2000 + polish
pin is in middle finger
easily a benchmark piece
-
I am wondering if it will be too close to my outlaw, or if the hybrid cover will make it different enough
-
disorder is earlier and less diff.
i would say the disorder is more midlane and controllable
not really the same pieces when comparing side-side

I drilled up a disorder for PBA experience league and this ball is As great piece. Very smooth and strong averaged 206 on the Bear with it for the first three games before switching. Kept me in play, look forward to using it more.
Columbia has a silent winner here, very unknown piece.

IMO, Columbia's best piece at the moment.
Although I blew the dust off my lower pin Outburst last week on a long pattern and it reminded me why I liked the Disorder as well.
Some good stuff coming out of Hopkinsville lately

I agree. I've had a hard time not buying a disorder. Around me almost everything is storm/roto and I've been getting people's attention throwing hammer and track

The Disorder is a great piece for higher rev players looking to control the breakpoint, and for "mere mortals" with slower ball speed like me, it's one of the first balls I throw on heavier oil. It's a great choice for virtually anyone without paying a premium price.
