Crankncrash, wouldn't the element be a solid reactive alternative to the thing? It has a solid version of the same soacker reactive cover and a slightly different core. Just something to think about.

There will be a soild vendetta coming out soon, probable going to be DT's Bowl Expo release. So be on the look out, at least that is what I have heard from a few staff guys in the area. Its suppose to be black from what I've heard.

thanks for all the input.. i'll be waiting for the new vendetta.. or has anybody sanded the original down to get a little earlier roll?? how does it react??

98custom: my only worry about the element is that it won't hook enough to meet what i want.. i want a ball that basicly matches what an Xfactor deuce can do.. and do it with more entry angle.. i don't really care for the arc like shape of the deuce ( great ball just not really what i like) and i don't really care to have the same ball as everyone in my house..  If i maxed an element out would it hook that much??

well i don't really need as much hook as the deuce.. i can generate that on my own.. i love to get a ball that just snaps off the face of the earth.. thats fun.. so the element will do that atleast?? or would the thing be a better option there?? i don't really know if the thing will handle the oil i want to throw it on though

Can anyone suggest a drilling for maximum flip for a Vendetta?  Mine is a strong arc, I was expecting more of a skid and hard flip reaction.
