Tested the new Dynamo tonight
« on: December 16, 2008, 01:48:55 PM »
My boys took care of me again and sent me the super rare Dynamo test ball with no logos just plain black on black Johhny Cash style, with a silver pin.

This is the new Lane 1 ball coming out soon, its the Dynamo. My test ball is blank black with no logos at all. I only got to throw the ball about 1 game tonight cause the condition laid out in this league is way dry, I usually have to use my Chainsaw. But I wanted to play with the new toy. Anyways I punched it up 4 3/4 x 4 no weight hole. This tester has roughly a matte finish to it. I cant wait to throw this on some oil in this out of box state.

I could swing this ball and hook it a ton and still carry or take all the hand out if it and play it somewhat in the track area, and it still carried exceptional. I am going to put a high polish on it tomorrow and try it out again and will post back with the results. If I can get this thing to get like glass I think I can put some huge numbers up with it.

I have a feeling this will have a real good chance to take ball of the year honors, with this cover and core combo.

Cant wait to see the final logos and product, in a month or so.

Sorry but why are there so other members bashing Lane#1 ? Ok maybe some of their marketing are overboard like the Buzzbomb's but I find that their balls are actually quite good....especially the Agent Orange.
In my opinion, bowlers will read through ball reviews, ask question in the net and/or check with their Pro shop to find out if a certain ball is good for his/her game. I don't think anyone will buy a ball just by reading the advertising material.
Just my 2 cents...

I agree with many posters here...if more people would try the balls instead of bashing them, they cold add a valued reaction to their arsenal.
 


Been there, done that..

Quality balls? Yes..

Miracles as claimed by Richie? No f'ing way..

Different reactions?..Nope..at least not for me.

They are just..balls..no better than anyones elses.

If you happen to match up with them, then they are truly your saviors. If not, then they are just over priced, over hyped balls.

Hi, my name is Vinnie and I bought a bustbomb that did nothing!! My aveage sank 20+ pins with this dyno-turd and I gave it away for the cost of shipping.

The ball struggled in oil and rolled out on dry..

Way to go lane one..


Vinnie: I'm honestly perplexed. You've had major difficulties with two balls in the Lane#1 line-up (Uranium, BuzzBomb) that no-one should problems with. Both balls have even rolling symmetric cores with very tuneable covers that almost defy operator error.

Neither one of these balls will automatically be a favorite, but turds??

Sorry, the experiences you describe make no sense.

Not everyone matched up well with the Buzzdud.  I have two, one drilled a couple of different ways and no luck.  It is the most unpredictable ball I owned since the EMB.  Skated trew oil but burns up on the shorter oil patterns.  I tried several coverstock preps, but the ball had no promise, unlike the Agent Orange.  the Agent Orange has a lot of promise, but still has not made it into my league/tournament bag yet.  I'll take a good look at the Dynamo when its released because I have had a lot of luck with Lane 1 bowling balls, but honestly not since they left Brunswick.

That a shame, cause the BuzzBomb has been my favorite post-B Lane#1 ball.  And since I've thrown a 300 with the Agent Orange I think it's worked out well..

i guess you didnt read the part where i havent bowled 4 two years, i used to average 200+ ,and if lane1 is marketing to the guy with a 170-180 average they must be pretty smart being that is about the norm 4 most league bowlers


And, since you've been away from bowling for some time, it seems you've failed to notice that the BuzzBomb, factory surface being 1000 grit dull, when compared to the Virtual Gravity's OOB surface, 4000, shows that the VG cannot be called a true oiler.  These are your words from another website regarding ball reviews, no?  Let me inform you that just about any solid reactive ball, when taken to 1000 grit or lower, will fare better than a ball, even the mighty Virtual Gravity, @ 4000.  Is this Lane #1 bashing?  I'd like to think not.  However, please distribute your opinions based on honest to goodness, apples to apples comparisons, that are on even ground.  FWIW, I'll take my Threshold for an oiler any day of the week and twice on Sundays.  This opinion coming from someone who's got a VG in his bag and has plenty of other pills if he wants to surf the lane or go coast to coast.

BTW, keep up the great work after your absence.  Glad to see that you've returned to the game that you enjoy.

Just saying, but an Agent Orange from Beans is 179$ drilled, Hammer The Sauce is 179$ drilled, the Cell is 169$ drilled, i'm pretty sure. I don't see much of a difference. The AO would probably outlast them, coverstock-wise, though. Just my 2 cents!

BTW, i'm no Lane #1 supporter exactly. In my bag is all Hammers (5) , 2 Lane #1 (XXXL and Chainsaw).

I believe the Twisted Fury goes for around $145-$147. I'm not saying there isn't any, but I haven't seen any for $119.

Inverted,

Alright, I see what you're talking about here! Nevermind my post then.

I'll just creep back to the Hammer side of BR.. Haha.

Can't wait to see the Dynamo in action!

Ha Ha Ha Ha. "symmetrical cores with tuneable covers that almost defy operator error" Good one. Is there a button on the ball that sets the auto pilot or is it done by a hand held remote control? Just asking.  


CRD: OK, since you are "Just asking". It appears that you've completely misintepreted my "symmetrical cores with tuneable covers that almost defy operator error" statement. The point is that even rolling and predictable equipment (i.e. Lane#1 BuzzBomb/Uranium) should never be labeled as a "turd" if your mechanics are sound and you have a decent release. The same can be said for non-Lane#1 equipment that falls in the same predictable, even rolling category -- for instance the Cell and LevRG. If you claim that you don't match up, it's time for some serious self examination.

Now, for someone like yourself who has proudly said:

 "I don't rely on a core to make the ball move and the pins dance. I use my skills and shell prep (90% of ball reaction) to get the job done"

these basic concepts might be lost on you.

However, it's a new year -- maybe a miracle will happen.

The prices the Fasttracker listed is for my out of shop customers. I do not under cut the MAP at any time. You would be looking like $200 shipped and drilled on a Dynamo..

OR....

You can wait and see me at the booth in Vegas. We will be very competetive with ALL the other booths.
