Threw a few games last night w/ my buddy Joey Bag-o-donuts! Went to our mixed league house which is usually pretty damn wet, but it had broken down a bit, but still a little sloppy.........hadn't had much opportunity using my Pro Purple so I brought it along.
Started with my Fuel (use this ball there ALL the time) and got warmed up. Nice read, and was the right ball....but,.....
I pulled out the PP and moved about 3 boards right and 2 on the lane.
It was a urethane on steroids !! Never jumped, but I knew she wasn't going to give up either.....does that make sense. You could see it working !
The nice thing was, it recovered really nicely if I pushed it wide, but never 'jerked', just as smooth as glass.Getting this ball on trade was a great idea...I can definately see me using this ball for control on medium or so lanes, on sport shots, or just to straighten me out when I get squirrely!
It also makes me realize how much I like smooth equipment! I've noticed that lately, and last evenings session just solidified it! No more big snap stuff for me, ...not that I had a ton of it before, but I'm going away from that stuff all together. I can still have a longer ball that doesn't JERK out of the dry....
If the PP's reaction is the epitome of the Lane1 roll characteristic.....to quote from Terminator " IIIIIIIIIIIII LIKE IT !! "

Sounds like the purple ice to me.
I have a propurple myself. Loved it so much, I have a NIB on sitting in the closet. I got one more experiment that I am doing with my otherone with coverstock preparation, then I am going to drill up the NIB.
