Lane 1 compared to???
« on: April 08, 2013, 04:47:38 PM »
Ive been bowling for 25 plus years on and off, never threw a Lane 1 ball and NOBODY in my area that I know of has one. I never even saw one used allthough I have heard of the company and some of their balls. I bowl on Long Island and Lane 1 is not used around here. Im using DV8 right now and like them alot but I'm looking at the Stealth Bomber pearl. How does this ball compare to the DV8 Terror or the Storm IQ Tour pearl? And also...overall how does Lane 1 balls compare to the equipment of the other larger compaines?
Thank you for your help.
PS my stats are 220 avg, right handed med speed, med revs, four 300 games

Well, let's be honest. Anyone that doesn't think that PowrKoil wasn't a good coverstock is wrong. It's up there with any other coverstock produced, period. This is coming from a guy that doesn't match up with Big B at all, but my only Saw was a Silver Diamond, and boy, was that ball awesome.

Also, I'm a huge fan of S70, and would throw a rock if it was covered in it. But, PowrKoil still rolls awesome.

PK17 and 18 were both pretty awesome.

Activator wasn't too shabby either.

+1 ....  Those two in addition to PowrKoil were some of if not the best cover stocks ever produced.

pk-18 and C/2 is legendary, and I still use mine almost every week, but to that I would also say S-70 is super nice for me as well, carry one of those and use it weekly as well. I just hate that at some point it will DIE, but I know my pk-18's will never die
