Title: Vibe Jet Black???
Post by: charlest on March 29, 2013, 09:31:31 AM: Anyone know anything about the Jet Black Vibe that is on the USBC Approved Ball list as of March 2013?

Could be very interesting if it has the same coverstock and finish as the Jet Black Taboo.

BUT... I've been wrong before... April/May does look to be the right time of year for a Vibe release.

The Jet Black Taboo is a solid, but I'm not going to Reno.
Shame if it's only available there.

Already looked there... didn't see anything resembling a Vibe, just a half dozen Taboo's that must have missed the boat to China...

Your source? I haven't seen it one the 3-4 overseas sites that I browse when situations like these come up.

Post by: dougb on April 06, 2013, 11:31:15 PM: I had a Cherry Vibe back in the day. Great ball, but much stronger than advertised. It seems the Vibes keep getting stronger and stronger (with exception of the Blue Hammer remake). A Jet Black sounds great, but will Hammer go in the opposite direction with the covers?
