Kicking the CG out means it's been moved away from the grip center (the standard "label" drill because some ball companies used to engrave the label around the CG). Adds side weight and allows for the use of a weight hole to fine tune the reaction.
The angle is the PAP-pin-CG angle (MB instead of CG for balls with a marked mass bias). There are several systems (theories) you can use to lay out a ball; the classic is the pin-to-PAP x CG/MB-to-PAP (e.g., 4x3, 5x5,...). You can also use the PAP-pin-MB/CG angle with a specified pin-to-PAP distance, you could use pin-to-VAL/MB-to-VAL distances (kinda weird, Ebonite uses it in some of their videos), or go with the old-style MB-weak (track, left of thumb), MB-strong (right of thumb), MB-forward roll (toward VAL), all with specified pin-to-PAP distances.
All are perfectly fine systems with their strengths and weaknesses. When you start talking about strong asymmetrics with <7s spin times and mid-diffs above about 0.017", it's more important to listen to the manufacturer and how they think the balls should be laid out. For standard symmetric balls, one is really just as good as the other since the differences between all of the systems is how you place the CG/MB.
