I found this vibe much more aggressive than my cherry vibe.  On the house shot this ball did have the length that it was said to have but the backend is what amazed me.  I saw a huge flip on the backend similiar to the uprising's!!!
My ball is drilled stacked with pin to the right one inch and parallel to the ring finger.  I'm a lefty bowler so this should have been a weaker drilling but nooooo...
Using this ball is easy to average 220's on house conditions.  I did try it on the shorter pba patterns but didn't fair too well.  Just too much length and flip.  Maybe with different layout it would have been better.  
Hammer did a great job placing the toxic's cover on the vibe core.  They made another ball that hit's like a hammer...

Got this ball a while back. Picked it up because i liked the Vibe series when i was throwing One Handed. Layout the ball to be smooth and the check up in the midlane and have a strong flip nature in the back.

I have the chance to throw this ball on a multiple of patterns. Its a very versatile bowling ball. It tends to have a stronger flipping motion in the backend then the other Vibe's.

This ball goes down the lane smooth and rev's up very easily. Doesnt like heavy oil to much. But tends to carry very well when it has its chance to flip into the pocket.

Another awesome addition to the Vibe series. If you got the other ones, then i suggest you pick up this one as well

Rating: 8.75/10

This ball is the longest and sharpest of the Vibe line.  Excellent ball choice for the later blocks or lighter oil conditions where you can be confident getting deep, pitching to the right and watching it rip back.  Great compliment to the Onyx and Cherry.
