Ok, got a question for you guys.

I'm going to have almost a full arsenal of Roto-Grip within a week.

I live in the Syracuse area (actually, I could walk to the Lane #1 home base from school [I go to Le Moyne College]), so I think I might want to support the local guys.

...plus if I happen to bump into Richie at a center somewhere, I'd like to give him an opinion on his equipment.

So, here's the question for you folks:

What Lane #1 ball should I get as a trial?

Preferably, I'd like it to fit into an arsenal consisting of:

Roto Silver Streak SE
Roto Epic Battle
Roto RS-1

If you guys aren't familiar with those balls, there's plenty up about the SSSE and the Battle in the Roto forum, and the RS-1 is a pearlized reactive made for medium oil and skid/snap.

Chances are, I'll have the SSSE set up for skid/snap on heavier conditions than the RS-1, and the Battle drilled as an overall hook-monster.

I've been talking to a good buddy of mine and he and I have narrowed it to the Black Cherry Bomb, the H2O, and a solid Uranium.

Another other opinions, or am I decently on the mark?

Thanks a bunch guys.

The Black Cherry Bomb would be a good choice but if it is extremly heavy, The Super Carbide Bomb is the best selection, I have or had both and in my opinion the scb can handle more the the bcb, Retro

Based on the three you have narrowed it down to, the Solid Uranium is the most versatile over a wide variety of conditions.

From the choices you listed, I would go with the Solid Uranium, BUT, and you will notice I capitalized it for effect, MY personal choice would be to agree with the Carbide Plus.  The only thing I will warn you about is that it may surprise you and replace your heavy oil ball choice.  I would also recommend that you prepare yourself for a change in your arsenal, for once you have tried the power that is a Buzzsaw, you will be addicted.  I will not be surprised to see you post questions on which Saws would best replace your rotos.
