I drilled mine pin up cg out a little. Changed surface from 2000 to 4000 no shine. This ball is very clean through the front part of the lane. The reason I changed the surface is more for control the backend more. The ball is very aggressive on the backend. This ball can handle everything from heavy to medium oil without a problem. When encountering lighter oil the ball for me picks up to fast. I throw about 16.5 and have above average revs. I have used on 39 and 41 ft sport shots and had no problem chasing the pattern in a getting the ball to read the pattern. You will not be disappointed.
One of the best symmetrical balls I have drilled in awhile..Very clean and predictable on the lane, reminds me of the Hy-Road when I drilled one a couple of years ago..Doesn't over react down lane. Was not a big fan of the sauce or hot sauce pearl...this was a big surprise for me utilizing that core.. Works great on league conditions and I bowled very well with it this past weekend in tournament play on Kegel's Winding Road Pattern

Urethane,
From the looks of it the Silver and Red are pearl and the Black is solid. I just emailed Jeff to double check. Will post reply when he responds.
