I have a solid and a pearl currently drilled on this pattern and they are wonderful. The pearl is stronger on the backends. Both balls have inferno cores but are overseas covers.

Rico'd my Cell Pearl, its really smooth and predictable throughout the whole lane, but you've probably figured out by now that everything is that way when its Rico'd
Yup! You're right. I have a VG, an original Inferno, and an AMF Hawk drilled rico. All three are smooth as silk, with a very predictable, hard-hitting arc on the backend. I love them on tough conditions.

I am a Dual Angle junkie... but as for the Rico/Boomer/Full-roller/Wiseman/TJ exotic drill patterns... not as familiar with the motions.

I tried it on a Storm Secret Agent... hooked on the second arrow and went straight... My ball speed matches my rev rate on CATS... Is THAT the problem? I see heavey handed people arc this drill pattern... but goes pretty straight for me. Was wondering if the assymetrical core would accentuate that or not.

Ball surface? Axis tilt? Axis rotation? Rico is no good for low axis tilt and low axis rotation players. It does exactly as you described.

Especially when it's done on a high-performance piece. You usually get great hitting power, just by the nature of the ball itself, but extremely controllable!
