If you're not a full roller, it will probably flare over your thumb hole.  Just like a full roller drilling, I think this will reverse the flare on the ball....

Rico is pin in the center of palm, cg at 45*. Like LR said, more of a full roller than Rico.

See THIS layout.. I've had a couple with it.  Great for me with stronger cover balls (my favorite was on a Goliath)...  but hated it on weaker/pearl equipment.  Lots of mid-lane and a smoother backend reaction.  The goliath gave me incredible carry on a heavier oil house shot.

I also drilled a ball like that. Gave me a strong hook/set reaction.

Mine also. More of a hockey stick hook set with super forward roll. Mine was polished particle, & hooked like a pearl resin.
