If the Infrared's cover is truly based on the Blue's CutThroat cover, then they may finally have something. All the rest of the XR's used more modern and very strong coverstocks that seemed to overpower the Vibe's medium strength core.

Remember the Vibe's were originally intended to handle light to medium-light oil, with the Onyx taking its abilities just barely into true medium oil.

How did the Cobalt Blue Stack up?

i love my cobalt. still to this day i cant figure out if the cover on it is of the black widow solid and the pearl look is just for aesthetics or if its the black widow pearl's cover. ive heard both answers. i keep it at 500/4000+lane shine and it gets a bunch of length and hard arc/snap depending on hand position.

i have to say how are you guys drilling the new one already?

Ive got two in 15lbs I will be selling. I think this ball will be a lot bigger hit then the Green Envy. Fireball red is always a winner.

My tracking number came today so technically I could list them since I know I got two. I have in times past. Probably will this weekend.

Im not excited that they didnt list the number available.

Mine are not going to make eBay this time. One I will keep as I have a nice little collection of Vibes, the other has already been traded to a local pro shop.

I didn't have a Cobalt. I had the original Blue Vibe.
