I don't have a clue, completely guessing!  It wasn't meant to be a statement.

No problem.  Anyone else?  I don't know I am actually asking a serious question.  I always thought pancake blocks had lower Diffs.


Look at the picture of the core and maybe you'll understand the effect it has because of its orientation - go to BBE or Lane #1 forum for the core picture.

Right.....it's the OG Chainsaw core, but cut in half.  And added a pancake flip block.  Like from the Hacksaw.

original diamon both ends cut off (just like original chainsaw) but then they cut the core in half vertically, then added the pancake flip block to the ball

like i said in the other post decent looking numbers on a mid priced ball

Pancake blocks do have a low diff and highest RG usually. Only not when coupled with an actual core.
