So when will Lane 1 go back to using ......
« on: January 11, 2010, 12:27:01 PM »
So when will Lane 1 go back to using the Diamond core? Not a modified Diamond core where the top, bottom, sides have been cut off or a puck added but a true Diamond core. After all this is the core that made Lane 1. This is not a post to bash Lane 1. So how about it? Who wouldn't like to see the the Cherry Pearl core in let's say the Break Pearl cover? Thoughts?

Not a overly bad idea. These balls were very strong in the midlane and would  kind of backoff through the pins. I had all three of the "original" buzzsaw balls. Some of my higher scores and award scores were bowled with the black and purpleone in the middle to late 90's.

Strong definitely. That's why people bought them strong cover strong core.

My guess for the deviation from the original Diamond has been due to increased pressure from the industry to the more dynamic core designs.

Most bowlers want a ball will bounce by itself with minimal skill. Most old school Lane 1 balls are very smooth and rolly by nature...a booming backend is NOT typically one of their big assets...yes there are exceptions...Silver Diamond, Cherry C2 most notably.

Lane 1 started getting backend with the advent of the Bomb cores (Cherry Bomb, Dirty Bomb) and now the 900 Global coverstocks react much stronger to friction than the old Brunswick covers did. So we are getting more backend now due to the covers.

I would like to see the Uranium cores released again with some of the new high friction coverstocks from 900 Global.

Yes I would also like to see the Uranium core also in some of the different 900 Global covers not just the C/2 cores.

Sit tight.....I have a feeling that the C/2 core will make a re-appearance in the near future.  I obviously don't know for sure, but I can feel it....

They did the Cherry Pearl and it can only be retro if Brunswick makes them. I do like the idea of a 50/50 hybrid cover with the Diamond core.

i hate to say this but i left lane 1 shortly after brunswick and lane 1 seperated. i tried the uranium hrg and 1 other columbia cover lane 1 ball and they were not the same thing for me.

my favorite lane 1 balls of all time was the solid uranium, pearl uranium, and black cherry bomb. i had a ton of lane 1 balls back then. that used to be all i threw.

the cores with 900 global covers do not impress me much. im going to stick with hammer and roto grip. the only lane 1 ball i will have in my bag will be a solid uranium.
