That would be something. There's only one answer. MORE LOFT lol. Try maybe 30-35 feet + 500 revs + heavy oil = X's on the board. Dont know if my mathematics are correct might need more loft to equal a strike

Windows Media Player or Quicktime doesn't play Ram files. So save it to your documents and then right click and go to "properties" and then go to "opens with" and then at the bottom you should see in blue font "look for the appropriate program on the web" and then click on that. Should take you to the RealPlayer link. Or you could just go to RealPlayer's website if you know it. Follow the instructions for free download and then your all set. Hope it helps. Worked for me when nothing else played the file.

Okay, after a couple of techinical difficulties I have finally watched the video. I have come to the question, "How am I going to keep this ball from rolling out?" They say that it will be a great league ball, I want to go to the house that lays down the oil for this ball. On our freshest shot my Absolute Inferno is a little too much ball. I could never imagine even using an Ultimate Inferno (or something like that) let alone this ball.

It is simply the answer to all the younger bowlers and inexperienced bowlers dreams. MORE HOOK. More burnout unless we see the oil for it. More "I cant get it too hook" complaints. Me being one of them before I knew of burning up.

Yeah, this is the exact same vid as the EPX T1 DVDs they've been giving out at all of the trade shows lately.  From what I've seen in person and have heard from the staffers is that this ball won't roll out due to too much friction, it'll simply just keep hooking off of the lane.  I'm sure that'll tell people when to put the ball down.

Well that was a pretty cool video! I really wanted see more shots of the ball though .


I, on the other hand, was lookin for more shots of Eryn Brooke.  Hell, the whole 12 minute video could have been of her and I would buy a case of those EPX-T1's.  No doubt Jeff, I'm in love too.  A really hot girl that talks about bowling and isn't 14 years old at cosmic bowling....haha.

It would have been nice to see the EPX T1 thrown side-by-side with some of the other C300 high-performance equipment, so that we could get a better idea of just *how much* different this ball really is.  That said, though, it doesn't seem to me that anyone with more than an average amount of hand could find any possible use for the EPX on a house condition.  However, if enough of the first-shift bowlers buy them, and blow a huge hole in the track with them, those of us who come in after them can look forward to bowling on an even bigger wall than usual.

The way I understand it they can increase or decrease the amount of plasticizers(sp?) in the coverstock.


*Any* manufacturer can do that with *any* coverstock.  Ever wonder how the ball companies have managed to "tweak" Super-Flex, Curelyon, PowrKoil, and other covers over the years?

I was also able to watch Chris Barnes and Del Waren throw the ball, and although it is a hook monster, it's not THAT big of a hook monster to be stupid.  The ball still needs to match up well to carry.  I think it's an excellent ball.  

The oil track of the ball also darkens as more games are put on the ball.  Temperature changes also change the colour of the coverstock, which is quite interesting.  Performance isn't affected by the colour changes though.  The ball is an oil absorbing monster!

If I remember correctly, they said the ball will not lose its reaction because it uses chemical friction or something like that? The ball wears very slow also? Anyone hear that in the vid?

They say more friction but isn't there a limit on friction (COF) and how much higher is this balls COF over any other ball? I would figure that they have already come out with a ball pretty close to the COF limit so how much higher can they go. Does anyone know where this is published.

I also have to admit that Mr. Suppers wig is one of his better looking pieces. It actually looked real.

Let me know where the tournament is. I'll find a way to make it, just don't tell my wife she might find the prize as worth it as I.
