Maybe closer to this?

  This is the first one I can remember with this shaped core in it, and it is from 2000, 6 yrs ago:

  Was thinking of getting the crisis solid.  Not much reviews.  Anybody got any constructive feedback on it?

Other guy,

  No complaints on the core here, just other examples.

  Actually, the solid crisis is one ball I have been strongly considering.  The old book in our shop ( not my shop, just the one I buy at ) shows it not released yet ( old book ) with the same core as the pearl crisis had.  I like this core better than that one and think it will work great. I am actually MORE interested than before, now that I know the core geometry for sure.

  I also agree with your notion that a core needn't be obtusely asymmetrically shaped to have great rolling characteristics.  I think people tend to take a good idea and try to improve on it to much, sometimes to the point of ruining it alltogether.

  The K.I.S.S. principle.  Thank goodness for people that agree.
