Scalien Core?
« on: October 25, 2004, 08:42:16 AM »
Well since the cat is out of the bag and the pics are up on big E's website of the new Xcel's, I would like to know what this core looks like as there are no pics of it up yet.  Ronald Hickland you sir can chime in anytime on this topic.

This sounds like a modified Werewolf core with a mass bias.  Am I along the right track?

If anybody wants pictures of the core please e-mail or PM me.

It kind of looks like a modified Matrix Conquest core where the added mass is at a 90 degree angle to the core body as opposed to at a 45 degree angle. But it could also be the top of the core it's hard to tell from the picture

To those who sent a PM and didn't receive an e-mail from me. Please try again. I deleted the messages by mistake

So it is similar to the "level 3" asymetricals designs previously released?

Hello, my baby

Hello, my ragtime gal

Send me a kiss by wire
Baby, my hearts on fire

If you refuse me
Honey, you'll lose me
Then you'll be left alone

Oh baby, telephone
And tell me I'm your own

Clem & jwsmith,

Actually, the omega line of balls had some of the highest secondary differentials ever produced in any bowling ball (stronger mass bias).

The lower mass bias effect is what will allow the scalien core to be more "adjustable" via balance holes (hence more user friendly...).
