As I recall, (been awhile) the Ti Beast supposedly hit harder due to the denser core.
Even with that being said, I was shocked to find out that the OG Beast had a particle cover!....and I still have one!
Just to clarify, the original beast, then beast pearl were not particle. They were released before particle technology. They came out with a particle version later on.
Ahhhh!!! 2nd generation Beast! Got it!
Thanks.
Pet peeve of mine how confusing it can be to get the right generation of some of the gems what with numerous unofficial remakes that really aren't etc. Also praying a ball isn't TEC dead and that in the case of the old ceramic or metal inner cores hoping they haven't separated or are about to separate.
Way back when I was a free agent, That purple pearl Beast and the solid Pulse, two all time favorites.
Today, the IQ tour is closest thing I have ever seen to the Pulse shape and reaction, and IQ 30 was similar to the Beast in shape, but core Rg makes it read up earlier.
Truthfully, I think some of the oil technology has caught up to where if there were some NOS particle balls, they would probably roll much better, today. They were too far a head of their time. Just my .02. I would be happy to find a Trauma Recovery or Response, for today's oils. Would be fun to play with.
