Backend comparison with regards to the Tsunami and the EU
« on: January 18, 2006, 01:25:28 AM »
Now that I have both Tsunami and EU drilled I can compare them in practice.  But last night I brought the Tsunami to league, just drilled pin under ring finger CG stacked, and the ball seemed to be gliding through the oil fairly well and just about the time I thought the ball was going too long, the ball jumped left through the nose.  Great break point read.  So moved left a couple of boards, same thing the ball shot off the break point.  So put it away until I get a chance to throw the ball in practice.

But the break point reaction of the Tsunami seemed to be more radical as compared to the EU, which I don't even bring to this house. So I couldn't compare them last night.

So is the back end reaction stronger on the Tsunami or the EU if drilled the same and with all other things consistent?  The EU is so strong that I bought the Tsunami for a little softer read, but the Tsunami has a monster back end.

Both the EU and the Tsunami are in box condition.  I'll test both in practice today.  But it seems as though ther Tsunami had a stronger reaction to the break point as compared to the EU.  My first two leagues series with the EU were 724 and 711 so I don't want to adjust the surface in the EU just yet.

Where would the H2O fit in with the Solid Uranium, EU, Tsunami and the Bullet fit in?

Thanks for the replies to the post.

My anchor bowler has a Tsumani and his is long, strong, and continous through the backends and the pindeck; may be comparing apples and oranges here though 'cuz the T is reactive and the EU is a light-load(3%)particle.
 However, I AM a FOOL !!!

Anyway, here is something that I found on their website ...

Hope this helped ...

what is box on both ?! Lane1 never gives grits do they?

You may be seeing the reaction because of the backend condition...coupled with the solid reactive and offset pucks of the Tsu ...

The EU has particle and a lower RG to pick up sooner, thus a little less at the back.....

That's my guess....

and...
Solid
EU
Tsu
H20
Bullet

Thank you for your comments.  Now I need a H2O.

Just back from practice using both the EU and the Tsunami.

Its amazing how right on you guys were with the TSU and EU comparison.

The TSU got through the heads a lot easier then the EU, the EU being earlier also.  Lie mentioned, it might have to do with the coverstocks and the weight block differences.  The EU still retained plenty for the back end but didn't quite retain the energy that the TSU had on this particular pattern.  Its easy to make a ball change with these two bowling balls.  The EU is earlier and handles a higher volume of oil (not heavy oil for me) and the TSU gets down the lane easier and has a strong move at the break point, both carrying tremendously.  As the games rolled on it was becoming more difficult to get the EU through the heads and I was forced to go deeper and deeper quicker then the TSU.  I was able to play a little lighter oil pattern and my shot held up longer with the TSU but the TSU did not like the carry down. The EU handled the carry down much better.

The Bullet didn't have a chance with this much oil except for a spare ball, but I could see its potential with drier lane conditions or lane conditions with short oil and flying back ends.

Now how does the H20 fit?

Thanks again.
