Should be a successful ball...but I wouldn't anticipate a TON of sales...I know the Slate Blue started to become a hot item after it was discontinued, but you have to admit that the majority of folks aren't looking for a urethane...
Possible release date? Soon -- as in February-ish?
-
I'm on that fo sure.

Groovy.
I am all over that one!
I have been using plastic at one house to fight the bone dry outside boards. This will give me something just a bit stronger without the over-reaction of resin.

Since purchasing my first Tsunami and switching to all Lane#1 my avg has gone from 196 to 212. Works great for me.

As far as Elvis, I hope you got his autograph. You can buy a lot of ball off e-bay after cashing in.
Inverted, you know it's difficult to empirically prove a that a given line of balls helps you score better. Lane#1 does have the physics study that suggests the diamond core provides some advantages. There are several testimonies (including my own) about averages going up significantly after switching to Lane#1; I've cracked the 230 barrier two years straight using their stuff. Given that I'm old and partially crippled, I doubt that placebo effects are coming into play. Simple logic says that predictable and even rolling equipment should provide some on-going advantage if you use it properly.
Regardless, you're going to believe what you want to believe, so evidence isn't going to matter. I took you at your word when you basically said the Fury Pearl is a turd. Sometimes you have to return the trust in the other direction.

so steve, will they take me to 250 from 240? I am interested in anything that can guarantee me winning more cash.
Reg: You know that there a few guarantees in life, especially if you're already at 240. In your case, I doubt it would make any difference.
However, for bowlers in the low 200's with some solid fundamentals who need a bit more consistency in their roll characteristics, Lane#1 equipment can help.

As far as proven to increase score I don't know my average went down when I was throwing the Black Cherry Bomb but there wer other factors involved, Any company is going to have people saying ''my average went up 15 pins when I started throwing so in so company''

I believe you are presenting the question to the wrong people. Perhaps you should contact Lane #1 for your answers. Users can only post what they have experienced first hand. The company making the claim is ultimately responsible to provide the answers you seek.

Regs, even though you're at 240, who knows, you may get to 250 or even 260..!! You won't know until you try one. If Steven can go from I'm guessing 215-220 up to 230, I don't see any reason why you can't get to 250. Call Lane #1 direct to get some drilling suggestions for your game. You never know. =:^D

That is a hot logo. As fan of good logos I had to stop by and mention that. Also is that solid black? It's like a dream come true for me.

I have now about four Lane1 balls. The Hybrid Dirty Bomb, Enriched, Cobalt pearl and the xxxl. Let me first say, that they DO NOT carry any better than my other balls when in the pocket. However, I feel on worse shots and mistakes that the "core" does its magic. Lane1 has carried more offhits than anything I've ever thrown. Whether through the nose or light sweepers, pins stay low and usually keep it spareable. That's the main difference I notice.
Now scorewise, I shot a two 300's this season, one with a XXcel by Ebonite and one from the Enriched. Series wise. 760 (HDB), 763 (Enriched), 791 (Enriched), 753 (Cobalt), (716 Bigtime), 706 (Bigtime). As you can see, whether its the ball or just my confidence in Lane1 equipment, it does in fact make a difference.

If it weren't for electricity we'd all be watching television by candlelight.

this whole discussen but lane#1 one being better or not is futile!
Why? Well if you have to ask that question your out bro! 
Seriously talking: I see no big difference in my score range! I am average ~180 and here I don't think lane#1 gives me a boost. But I guess for a 220+ bowler it could be as I also think and belive that light and off hits are carried.. sometimes

There isn't a ball company out there that doesn't make the claim that thier balls hook more, hit harder and will help you score better and all sorts of stuff. Why is it that only Richie and Lane #1 are attacked?
I've converted a few people at my lanes in the youth as well as the adult leagues from Brunswick, Ebonite and Hammer to Lane #1 just by letting them try some Lane #1 balls before buying them. Some said they noticed a difference in the roll and hook, some said they didn't notice much of a difference in roll and hook, but they have all commented on how Lane #1 seems to carry better, especially on high and low hits.
Most of these people used to laugh at me and run down Lane #1 just like most of the non believer's here. Now that they've tried them and seen for themselves, they have changed their tune.
I gave a G-Force Solid to my son's friend on the youth league with a 200ish average. Him and his family are diehard Ebonite fans. His father and mother cringed when I offered it to him to try since he was struggling with his Ebo's. He started tearing it up with the Buzzsaw. He will still use his Ebo's now and then, but usually goes with the G-Force. Even if he does start out with one of his Ebo's as soon as he starts struggling he always grabs the Buzzsaw. Even his father and mother have commented on how well the Buzzsaw works for him. This caught the attention of other kids on the youth league and there are more starting to ask about them.
And by youth league I mean the Travel League and the Junior Gold League, not just the regular Saturday morning goof off youth league.
Last night I sat and listened to my team mates friend cry about how his Brunswick Fury has died on him after less than 100 games. He said he's been on the phone with a Brunswick rep and has tried everything suggested but the ball still sucks. I guess we will see what he thinks also as we talked to him about trying a Buzzsaw and he has agreed to give it a try so he can see for himself what the hype is all about and if there is any difference.
Another Lane #1 convert on the way, lol.
