I have a Total and should have just bought another one when they were still in production, but I didn't.  I still use the one I have, but wish there was a weaker, non-particle cover to go with that core.  I just love the roll it gives me, but I just want something to fall back on when the lanes get too dry for particle.  Surely with all the repackaging being done, this core is in a weak shell somewhere.

I bought the re-release of the Pulse thinking that it would be exactly what I wanted, but that cover is way too strong for what I want.  I was hoping to leave it in a sheen finish, but that hooked as much as my Total.  I tried polishing, but that only added length and a more flippy backend with only a couple boards less hook.
