I don't (yet) have the Energy, so I can't give you the benefit of any real-world experience. Based on their specs, I'd agree with UNObowler that the Energy should go a bit longer than the Thing, and have a more angular look to it on the backend.
I do, however, own the Crisis, and unless you throw the ball a hundred miles per hour, you're going to have to slap some polish on that baby to use it on anything close to dry lanes.
The Crisis is not a dry lanes ball. If you really bowl on the dry, you should swap it for a Barrage.
