Huh, that would be a short life for this ball, but I'd consider it probable. I'd also think that a lot of other balls from mayn manufacturers will be gone for good soon, since a lot of new balls are in store.

That's what I was thinking. Maybe a pre-Christmas release.

Wow...that was fast, maybe I should grab the one off of the wall at the shop for my own use?

I believe the new Clash has the Whirlwind core with an added flip block, and the OverTime coverstock...

That appears to be correct loose5682, according to the specs I have received for the Clash.
