Title: Las Vegas Bowlling Expo and Lane 1
Post by: Nicanor on July 02, 2007, 01:34:43 AM
Did anyone go to the Bowling Expo in Las Vegas and find the Lane 1 booth or where there was updated material about Lane 1's future and new ball?

I didn't go and I think its over but no one has wrote anything that I have found about the Expo but Lane 1 especially.

Thank you.

Now Storm, they have some excellant products on the market especially the Special Agent and T-Road Pearl.
Cannot wait for the Secrent Agent and T-Road Solid coming out in the next couple weeks.


Storm's recycling a core from years ago in the T-Roads and you are applauding that?  I guess you don't mind that Ebonite is reusing core shapes from years ago either?
Brunswick - guilty
Columbia - guilty (much more so before their buy out)
Dynothane - just how old is the lightbulb core w/ flip block?
Hammer - Pure Hammer anyone?

If all you are going to do is belittle a company for whatever petty reason you have you'll never be taken seriously here.

Mezz, do you see some special high tech cores in the 2 balls you've mentioned by Storm..? I think not. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't even consider them cores.

One has a knob at the bottom of a round ball. What's that, an upside down lightbulb that's been around since the beginning of time..? The other has a small nugget in the center of a 3-piece ball. Talking about raping the bowlers who buy into the hype. You've just got taken.

At least Lane #1 has had physics studies done http://www.lane1bowling.com/tech/lane1_report.html, giving you hard data to substantiate their claims. That's more than I can see from most of the other companies.

You can say what you want, but you spend plenty of time here in the Lane #1 forum, so you must like Lane #1. If not, you're spending way too much time giving off negative energy. It's not good for your health. =:^D

What little (if any) credibility Mezz had got flushed down the toilet with his predictions of Lane#1's demise. It must be a great feeling to be associated with so many well connected people in the bowling industry.  

Storm's new innovations? LOL. Talk about rehashing old generic technology. Mezz, you're hanging out in the wrong place.

Along those line, any number of core shapes made from the same materiel can give you the same RG and Differential. So what happens if you have the same cover on two differently shaped cores that roll the same numberswise?

Why does a multifaceted core like the Rocket core or the Diamond core make a difference versus a modified orb like the V2 if RG, Diff, and cover were identical?

I'm not sure if I believe the "research".

I'm inclined to think bowler to cover and numbers matchups make or break a ball.

K-Dawg77: RG/Differential numbers don't tell the whole story. Until you've thrown a number of different Lane#1 balls and then go back and throw your old stuff, it the reality of the difference won't hit.

Not the best answer. "Proof in the pudding" does not suffice.

LOL. In fact, it's the only reasonable answer. Experience is the ultimate determining factor. Otherwise, you're driven by what you want to believe, which is even a more questionable way to proceed.

I can except that, but theoretically, I could be the one guy that doesn't match up with Lane#1. I'm not judging quality, just the belief in anyone's cores making a difference versus another's if they dictate the same roll numbers.

someone smell a pissing match??? again???

I feel like when core talk comes up on this forum, we're invading an island that cant even hold its head above the water.

Is this company(island) really worth the battle?

San Antonio?  Isn't that where Columbia was/is?

Any information about the Super Nova?

only info on the super nova is the core nicanor, I have not heard what the cover make up will be other then it is a solid reactive ball

and the super nova has two seperate densities in the core not just one, the inner half sized diamond core is the same material as the uranium series balls

from an engineering stand point, phyisics is the biggest deciding factor in ball design and construction, every ball maker utilizes physics princiables to define their end result, no pissing match needed
