That's a risk, because those balls where hit-and-miss with a lot of people. That new Hybrid cover is amazing, so this ball might be a better cover/core match for more bowlers.

Sorry guys, I don't mean to poop in the punch bowl, but talk about a downer.
WOAHHH Another ball with a strong core wrapped in the Hybrid radio/18..
Big whoop.

<sarcasm>Gee thanks lane #1 for listening & making a weaker & more "classic" style of core. It's good to see that you haven't lost sight of what won you so many of your fans (like me) in the first place, your amazing even roll from your perfectly symmetrical core on all 3 Axis. </sarcasm>

Actually, the cover is the pearl hybrid which hasn't been used yet.And the core which hasn't been used yet. Also I might add, most people have been asking for a reintroduction of the C2 core, adn that is probaably why they did it. But is is different, and something Lane#1 has never done, as it is their first asymmetrical, so really it's nothing like any of their other stuff, so your pretty wrong.
Quote from the first ad:
"The Buzzsaw Hybrid Offset combines Lane #1's Hybrid Radioactive 18 coverstock..."
Maybe you have other information than me, but I see no where in there that it is a new pearl cover. Right there in the ad it says that it's the Hybrid Radioactive 18, the exact same nomenclature given to the cover on the hybrid dirty bomb.
Quote from Hybrid DB AD: "Lane #1 has instituted "gene technology" in the formulation of resins, creating a new HybridTM RadioActiveTM 18 reactive resin coverstock."
So to chastise me on that point is unfair. It's Lane #1's fault for not marketing it correctly if it truly is a different cover.
As far as the core goes, that is not the C/2, and those of us who've been clamoring for its reintroduction are sad to see yet another strong core, instead of what brought us to throw lane#1 in the first place. So I'm NOT "pretty wrong" as you decided to put it. I'm disappointed.
All of the trolls who have constantly come into this forum have got all of you so agitated that when someone who is a saw FAN doesn't like what he sees, you jump all over him.
Lose the attitude people. It's not very becoming.

Exactly
That makes 3 of us. As a matter of fact, this request is the only one I've consistantly seen anywhere reguarding Lane#1. I Don't remember anyone saying "Boy I really wish they would make an asymmetrical ball with a hybrid cover".
Post by: Bjaardker on April 07, 2005, 11:29:43 AM
I'm not saying the ball is going to be a hunk of junk, I would never say that about a ball that I haven't thrown. I do know from exprience that the bomb cores dont match up with my game very well.
I'm just expressing my surprise that Lane#1 would stray even farther from what won them so many fans.
I'll take your word for it on the cover, but someone should tell lane #1 that if they are going to use a different cover on a different ball... maybe they should rename the coverstock.
Post by: Steven on April 07, 2005, 11:35:00 AM
Will Lane#1 come out with a value line? Who knows. If they think they can make money doing it without devaluing the brand, they will. Otherwise they won't.

We may have to agree to disagree on this, but my experience is that aysmmetrics bring little to the table. You can produce some real interesting hook reactions depending on placement of the MB, but what you end up getting is something that works well only on very condition specific situations that may or may not last.
Lane#1 has to survive, and since there is a demand for these types of balls, they probably feel compelled to provide a product. I just don't see this as breakthrough offering that will be of interest to most existing Lane#1 enthusiasts.

1. Coverstock...it is a PEARLIZED version of teh RadioActive 18 Hybrid coverstock.
2. The Core is an IMPROVED variation of the C2 core. By offsetting the bottom diamond it has allowed them more drilling options and yet another fine tuning device for the advanced driller.
3. The combination of the core and cover will produce a ball that is replacing the Pearl Cherry Bomb, Silver DIamond, Emerald Pearl and Viper Pearl.
The ball is designed to be aggressive but on the appropriate condition...it's designed as an aggressive lighter oil ball so treat it as such.
Let's not condemn the ball or speculate on it until someone outside of the Lane 1 family has thrown one.
I personally think it is going to fill the void in Lane 1's line perfectly and is going to be a big hit.
