flipping the ball 180 deg and using the mb as the pin etc..
« on: February 20, 2015, 07:44:34 PM »
Just for fun has anybody ever flipped the ball 180 deg before the layout and used the psa as the pin and the pin as the psa? if so what did it do or what would happen???

No idea on effectiveness of this layout...  I might try if I had something old lying around...  seems a bit "gimmicky" though...

another weird one I tried a while back and just love goes something like this.The mb is on my exact pap and the pin is at 9 oclock in my track.It was a short pin ball so the cg is just below my ring.Its the truest rolling ball I have ever seen.It wont jump at all and is so predictable.Much like a rico shape but just a touch longer and even less jumpy.The ball ended up at -1/2 side and I just left it alone.
Anytime the lanes get real wet/dry I pull it out and its blends out the cliff like no other.Im not sure how well it would work with a longer picn etc.....but its money on this particular piece.
Has anybody else tried this?is there a "name"for this layout??

p.s. the ball I used was a plugged up Brunswick Wild Ride.

Is this layout achieved using the dual angle method, and if so what are the numbers?

Or is this just a layout you put on the ball without a method? I am curious because this sounds like the reaction I would like to achieve for a friend.

Does this work better on any particular style of ball? (polished, dull, high rg, low rg, etc)

I can check the #s for dual angle when I get home in a few days but I really have no idea right off the top of my head and Im out of town at the moment.I just did it to see what kind of reaction I would get off the ball and I will have to say that I was pretty impressed.I have been using this ball pretty much every night or when its wet/dry out there.Im going to lay out another ball the same way but Im going to use a way more aggressive piece next time.
The ball is so predictable and doesn't jump when it hits friction.Its much like a rico layout in reaction but goes much longer.
