Jon thanks for the sweet video.  Did you do anything to the cover?  I just had the chance to drill mine and it rolls very good.  I have a good feeling about this one.  Thanks again!!

The movie is in .MOV format. Shouldn't have any problem viewing it with either QuickTime or a newer version of Windows Media Player.

JJ, The video was made with no surface adjustments done to the ball. I have since tried the ball with a slight sanding of 1000 abralon.

The league shots I bowl on seem to have quite a bit of oil up front and downlane (9PM leagues) and the APOGEE needs a certain amount of backend for the ball to perform its best.

Well I also punched the Apogee, 5 x 4(mb) and our house pattern doesn't seem to be able to hold this ball for me too well.  I am going to put out a longer or taller pattern and see what happens then.  For me it revs up very well in the mids, just like the Action series and turns over pretty darn good.  The thing I think I like best about it is the color!  You can really see the ball getting into a roll, probably do to the Asymetric weight block.  Will be a good piece to sell for us.

Nice video, I think it held that inside line pretty nicely. I love that line, so maybe this ball will get a look from me for that on top of the core. I also wanted to say that myspace friend request is from me. LOL. Have fun, and once again nice vid.
