I set mine up with the pin above the ring, and it gets a little more length than I originally thought it would. But the length part is OK because it compliments my earlier rolling BuzzBomb well.
The Dynamo is probably the best ball many bowlers will never try. The beloved Cell is not in the same category. The Black Widow and the Sauce can't hold a candle to it. The Dynamo really is one of those balls that comes around only every so often. It's a plain fun ball to throw.

My impressions of the ball is that its ok on the right condition. I actually was on one of the sport patterns where you could play the ditch as long as you didnt swing the ball any or it would go through the back. The Dynamo wouldnt read the lane as good as my polished Buzzbomb which was surprising. Both balls were layout out very similar also.
I have since tried it on a couple pattern with medium oil volumes and it seem to work very well. The ball is very predictable, so all in all, I would have to give it a solid 9.5 because the ball does exactly what its suppose to do which is "roll" hard...

you really have turned funny, and I mean that w/ all sincerity ( meds adjusted ..lol )
I punched yet another dynamo today, and whooped it out on the chameleon for it's maiden voyage into life, and the ball is just frikkin sick.
this ball was made for oil / tougher patterns, and makes a house shot look.......well like a house shot
never had a look on the chameleon like i did today w/ the dynamo, and it's been a while since i rolled on a pba_x shot, and all I can say is that I am glad I had my dynamo.
Incidently the guy I was crossing w/ had the ALMIGHTY VG, and it was not even close to the same ball park as my dynamo in reaction /strength / or CARRY
yes I whooped him bad, and I was having just so much fun doing it.
I had an easy 3-4 more boards to play w/ that did he, it felt like I was cheating.
normal rating on THS = 9
all else / long / heavy volume / sport / pba_x = 9.87998789878999

see thats not entirely true, i have stuff from them I like but dont like they fill a void but are as far as i am concerned not as good of an all around ball as the Dynamo. of all the lane 1 balls i have owned/thrown the dynamo is far and away the best of the bunch. is it the coverstock the new core, me, cant say but this ball is in a league of its own with the lane 1 herd, it more then holds its own agains the storms/rotos brunswicks, and ebo camp its a shame that more people will not take the chance to throw this ball, if very easily could be as popular as the cell of last year and the Black widow of the year before (hummm werent they ball of the year too?)

Didn't you read the disclaimer in the subject topic? :

If you don't have a Dynamo....two things...I'm sorry, and your opinion won't be very useful in this thread.
Is it lack of reading comprehension, or is it that you just don't respect the wished of folks who start topics? Most of the posters here are honest about their total Lane#1 experiences. I haven't loved every Lane#1 piece I've owned. I'm about to get rid of my Dirty Bombs (in great condition) because they've never really worked well for me. I have a short pin Cranberry that's exiting with them for the same reason.
You're hearing really good stuff about the Dynamo because it's a terrific piece. Nothing more, nothing less. If you ever decide to get one, please share, otherwise....

Just wondering how serious the results of this poll can be when the O.P. asks for ratings from 1 to 10 and then rates his a 12! VERRRRY unbiased. Actually there are some decent reviews in here on this ball. And there are some ludicrous ones also.
--------------------
We got a kinder, gentler machine-gun hand
My real rating is 10. I put up 12 because it is 20% more than 10....thought some of you would like that.
Here is the review I posted a while back
-------------------------
BALL SPECS
Pin Length - 3.5
Starting Top Weight - 3.5
Ball Weight - 15
DRILL PATTERN
Pin to PAP - 5
CG to PAP - 5
X Hole (if needed) - n/a
MB Location - No marked MB, but the implied MB is next to the thumb
Drill is pin over ring and cg stacked straight down
BOWLER STYLE
Rev Rate - 350
Ball Speed - 16...less sometimes when the elbow is acting up
PAP/Track - 5 1/4 by 3/8 up
PICTURE AND VIDEO LINKS
SURFACE PREPARATION
Grit - OOB 4k Abralon
Type (Matte, Polish, Sanded) - matte
LANE CONDITION - THS
Length - 37
Volume - Light
Type (Wall, Xmas Tree, Sport) - Wall that varies between dry and over blocked
BALL REACTION
Length - Moderate length, it clears the heads and reads the mids.
Back End - A very hard but controlled and confident arc that just won't stop. It continues right through the deck.
Overall Hook - MEGA hook. This thing will hook in the heaviest oil.
Midlane Read - A very good midlane read that builds to a strong smooth reaction
COMMENTS
Carry - The Dynamo carries EVERYTHING. Exceptional!
Likes - Smooth and powerful. It can smooth out an over-under shot. The ball never rolls out! You can actually play it in the med-dry and the smooth move just starts a lot earlier. You can play it in the puddle and it will still move.
Dislikes - The Dynamo is so smooth and never rolls out, so sometimes I keep it in play when I should go to something weaker.
Other - The reaction of the Dynamo and the Chainsaw are both so smooth, that I have an order in for a THS too.
I have tried the Dynamo on a drier shot using a handshake release and it went 45 feet straight out to the breakpoint and then made a hard smooth arc into the pocket and shattered the rack.
I have not messed with surface on the ball yet, but I have a friend who has his polished and it makes a BIG turn at the breakpoint. I'm keeping mine OOB for oil though. I can't wait for Richie to wrap a weaker cover on this core!

having crossed with all of those balls at one time or another, overall ability on the fresh, fairly equal, the dynamo drives harder IMHO.
on broken down shots is where the dynamo for me really comes alive, i have way more versitility then bowlers with similar averages as mine on the same lane conditions the balls you list seem to be early and labor on carry down where as the dynamo for me is far better with carry down and in deep

I love the scoffing/mocking, if that's what it was. For ME to date, the SCB IS the best heavy oil ball,and if you looked at my ball speed at the breaj point, you would see that. I have not thrown the Dynamo yet, and if it is better, I will say so. I see my SCB as a favorite because of the rg/diff, with the heavy particle cover as good, but I am hoping that the dynamo goes ahead of it. I am getting 10" of flare out of my SCB, with the oil rings starting 1" off the fingers and flaring almost to my weight hole, so u tell me.

OOB for me I would only rate it at 6 It was good don't get me wrong BUT it didn't have the backend I was expecting. That being I do have higher ball speed and have a tendancy to push the ball past the break point.
After 5 games I took the surface down and now would rate the ball at a 10. This is one of those balls that coems along once in a GREAT while. The only other ball I have that I would rate a 10 is my Teal Rhino.
First time I used it after I took the surface down was championship night on my Mon league, shot 267 170 264 = 701. The middle game we hade to move pairs to a pair that is natoriosly squirlly. I made the wrong adjustment, made the right one in the last game.
The Dynamo has a very smooth but very HARD backend reaction to it. It reminded me of my G-Force, but much harder.

No prob. I got rid of that POS. All Lane 1. Using the Black Cherry Bomb right now. I was interested in the Destruction and used it. It is great on heavy. Not sure what or how you were throwing it? But it carries nowhere near the Lane 1 line up. And isn't as smooth down the lanes either.
