Title: impressed
Post by: Matt Fortney on January 19, 2006, 12:44:40 PM

threw my first lane 1 today, the black cherry bomb. i just wanted to say that i'm pretty impressed. shot 741 with it the first day out. can't wait to throw it more. had great length with a very strong move on the back. recovery like whoa. drilled 5X5. great ball.

not to bring up price or anything, b/c i know that it's caused heated debates before, but if i wasn't so broke, i could definitely see myself spending the extra money. never thought i'd say that but wow.

as far as the hit goes, i don't know that it hit any better than anything else, no harder i don't think, but it did seem to mix the pins up more on my off-shots. lights ones were carrying like crazy. seemed like if i touched the headpin they were down.

hopefully i'll get a video up soon, compare it to my delta 1 and ssp, not that you guys care about those, but other people might like to see what they do comparably.

welcome  

lane1 balls don't make the pins fly .. hence you mentioning the good mix

the BCB is a very good ball, it is actually my benchmark ball to read the lane

my question is, because of all the usbc's new standards on differential, how long do i have with this ball before it's deemed illegal. right now it's grandfathered in correct? i'm under the impression that i can use it through the 2006-2007 season and no more after that, am i right?
