G-Force/Fury
« on: January 29, 2007, 06:45:44 AM »
I have heard that Lane #1 is thinking about filing a law suit against Brunswick for their use of the Torsion Core in the Fury because it is infringing on something they were working with while at Brunswick?  Can anyone clarify this story?

I wouldn't put it past Lane1, though they have no case. That Torsion core has more R&D in it then all Lane1s cores combined.

companies reuse other companies core designs all the time (they just change something small and rename it)

Otherwise, it's just best laugh their non-sense off.

I think hammer should sue the pants off of Richie for "stealing" the bomb core design from the Hammer Spike.

You Lane #1 guys need to chill out, and get over yourselves.
Richie sucks you in with marketing.

Mav: LOL. It didn't take much to flush you out. Hammer should sue Richie if they in fact 'stole' their bomb core design. In our sue happy world, you have to figure Hammer would have nailed (no pun intended) Lane#1 if they could. Given that Hammer didn't, there is apparently much more to this than you understand. Another weak attempt on your part to discredit Lane#1.  

Nice try though.

Joe is right. How much R&D has there been? IT'S THE SAME CORE EVERYTIME.. just with little modifications along the line. It's like the Inferno core.. similar shapes everytime just different densities in place.. same thing with the Lane #1 core dude.. wether you like it or not.


Conspirator: Frankly, none of us know exactly how much R&D there has been. What seems simple and obvious to you might in fact represent considerable time and effort to get right. There are an endless number of potential cover/core combinations possible, and it's presumptuous to assume it's easy, even with so called 'little modification' to get a combination right.

Frankly, I don't care, because regardless of what you think, it works. I look at it as an advantage that Lane#1 uses the base diamond for all their balls. I can look at a picture/specs and based on modifications, have a good idea ahead of time what a new ball will and will not do.

It's a little more of a crap shoot when buying balls from other companies. In many cases, they're constantly coming out with 'new and improved' cores that may or may not work as advertised. Many companies change ball designers more often than you change your underwear, so each year brings a new adventure. Since it's a completely new design with no frame of reference, you're buying on total faith -- kind of like buying a car without a test drive. If it doesn't work, you lose!  

I'll at least give you credit for getting much of the rest of your post right.

How about, I think you're a joke, coming into the Lane #1 forum with house hack credentials, throwing around rumors and giving an overall snotty attitude to the posters that make the most sense.

Hey, works only one way with you, this time the Bomb core resembles the Spike core much more than the FURY to the Diamond. Same deal, whether you want to accept it or not.

oh really? you think so huh? Wow, I must have had you all wrong this whole time. You MUST be in every R&D department of EVERY company out there to make that statement, forget me discrediting Lane #1, you just discredited yourself.

Conspiator, how do you know Joe is right? How does Joe know he is right? How do you know you are right? How much R&D did Brunswick do to get that core? How much R&D did Lane 1 do to get the cores they have? Simply put, you and Joe don't know. Neither of you offered any facts/proof to back up your statements. All either of you did was simply shoot off at your mouth without proof/facts or knowing what you are talking about as trolls always do.

With both you and Joe being Brunswick loyalists, naturally you are going to make statements against another company that you don't like and of which you know nothing about. It is natural for trolls to do that. Until you have proof to back up your statements, you need to go back to your Brunswick Forum and troll there.

C300, why Brunswick didn't just come out with the double Pyramid..? Does the twisting really do anything or is it just a way to get around Richie's patent..?

Megamav, how do you know that the Hammer Spike isn't infringing on Lane #1's patent..? Without the flip block, what do you have left..?

Back in the day, all cores had round centers, i.e. Hammer core, light bulbs ect... The diamond core is the first that didn't. Now most of them don't. Who's copying who..? It seems to me that Richie is the smart one..!! =:^D
