Differences between the Vibes?
« on: June 20, 2007, 01:08:59 AM »
What are the differences between the Cherry, Blue, and Purple Vibes (besides the colors of course)?  Are they all polished pearlized reactives?  Do they all have the same core?

I don't own any of the vibes but from what I have read the Purple vibe is longer and more snappy than the Blue Vibe.  The Blue vibe is stronger over all  and has more of an arc type reaction.  The Cherry vibes reaction is supposed to be really close to the purple vibe. The difference is with the cover on the Cherry vibe.  The cover on the Cherry is supposed to give a more consistant reaction from shot to shot compared to the Purple vibe.

I believe the core is the same in all three, but the coverstocks are all different.  I've heard the same kind of things Chitown has, and I'm considering picking up the Cherry Vibe, as I need something for later tourney games.

Mr. Lebowski, this is Bill Salnicker with the Southern Cal Bowling League, and I just got a, an informal report, that a member of your team, uh, Walter Sobchak, drew a firearm during league play. If this is true of course, it contravenes a number of the league's by-laws, and article 27 of the league...

blue vibe is more midlane then the purple ( i have the blue vibe) The blue vibe isnt as snappy as the purple. Cherry vibe is the replacment for the purple so it will go longer then the blue and have a stronger backend. Ill let u know since im drilling mine tomorrow
