Favorite Tsunami Layout?
« on: March 09, 2006, 04:16:37 AM »
I decided that I just didn't like the reaction I was getting out of my Tsunami, so I decided to plug it up and give it another shot.  Previously I had a 5 X 2 layout, pin under and between fingers and MB on my VAL with a weight hole.  With a polished or fine grit surface, the ball didn't want to get into a roll.  With a sanded surface, the ball wouldn't get far enough down the lane.  I'm sure it would have worked on a specific condition...  I just never found it!  I just finished pouring the weight hole thing morning..so I should be ready to drill by Saturday... Any recommendations for this ball?  I was thinking possibly of a 4" stacked layout or possibly something resembling a MoRich control layout (2" pin and mb near the thumb)...  Any comments, suggestions, or experiences would be appreciated.

Thanks,
S^2

Go with the stacked layout, it is very versatile. Mine is drilled with the pin above and to the right of the ring finger and the cg stacked below and it gives me good length and a nice arc to the pocket.

Just wanted to add this to my reply i tried out the second Tsunami today and man what a difference in amount of hook with the layout on it i can swing the lane and it seems to hit alot harder shot was fresh with clean backends started out on 20 on approach and playing 15 at arrows and 8 at break point it went left at about 35 feet and took the 7 pin out next shot moved left to 40 on approach and playing 20 at arrows and 8 at break point hit left side of head pin and strike moved to 43 on approach played 20 at arrows and 8 at break point and flushed the next 8 frames i love both of the layouts I have on these two Tsunamis
