I have a Arson High Flare and have thrown a buddies Urge to compare about a week ago (although the Urge did not fit my hand & different specs), I found that the Urge was a little earlier than the Arson High Flare. The High Flare is all about backend motion. For me this is a great house shot ball that I use in the 2nd & 3rd game when I need to open up the lane. Unfortunately I do not use this on the tougher patterns as I like to use smoother rolling pieces.

So from what I have seen him throwing the ball & from when I threw the Urge, it does get down the lane with ease, but I see a nice continuation with this ball, where the AHF might be a little too snappy in the backends.

Hope this answers your question...
