This is a "way too early" and "way too few games played" - "first impression" - micro review:

Ball:

3-4"pin drilled stacked with pin position right and above ring
MB stacked (slightly moved left a bit cause cg position and weight hole etc)

weight hole in thumb quadrant to get 7/8 side and 3/8 thumbweight - very small imho no influence on the ball's flare

I played my H2O on the following conditions:

OOB - fresh off the drill press:
THS - played - unprepared - a full day&night of open bowling on the lanes:
Ball moved strong... could play smoother with a stroker release and ball hit good and didn't cover as much boards as if
Played stronger with high tilt and more revs and the ball then almost showed a skid/flip type of reaction with a very long skid phase followed by a sharp breakpoint and great recovery on those backends thou the lanes were played on already for sure!
If there was carrydown I would dare to say I didn't recognize it with this ball

The next condition I tried the ball on was a oily 38ft THS with no walls as such but a flatter oil than usual as they had layed out that oil for a league:
same recovery... I had to move 5 boards right with feet and 3-boards with my target but overall same reaction and I was told it was oily and fresh prepared... backends were super clean and carry was marvelous
shot (with this ball):
220
183
201
(two games other ball to try and see)
201

the H2O now has 20 games on it (practice) and I will give a real review once It has really got seen more different conditions and has more games on it.

Great THS ball that I can say for now!
