Title: Trying Lane#1
Post by: Canadianboy on April 22, 2008, 12:19:36 PM
I am going to get my first Lane#1 ball...have been a storm fan and have no idea which ball to pick...
I have a Cell, total inferno and a TRoad Pearl.
Which will be the best ball to fit in my arsenal?
Supernova XP?
I am a slow speed low rev rate stroker...

well what exactly are you looking for? something rolly? something skid/snappy? something smooth?  looking for something on light oil? something for a swamp shot?
or something to use as a general benchmark ball?

My cell gives me a strong backend and my total inferno gives me s smooth arc... T raod is for lighter volume of oil.. I am looking for something different that will give me another angle or line to play around with..

Sounds like maybe a stronger over all hooking ball like the BuzzBomb to me..

Will the buzzbomb be too similar to the Cell? and I was looking at a supernovaXP will that be too similar to my troad?

That or the Super Nova solid, and then I would go with the BuzzBimb Pearl, if they come out with one in the fall.

Well You say your Cell Goes long with a big backend, while it most likely doesn't have as much bite on heavy oil the XP will have similar reaction.  I think you should expect the BuzzBomb to startup earlier the the Cell, and have more of an over all angle.

I only use my XP for my 10 pin or when the lanes start to dry up.I would wait til the THS comes out if I were you.

my xp is great, both my 300's have come on 41 ft shots one in the second game one in the third game once carry down started.  big decent back end from that ball, my buzzbomb moves harder off the dry but the xp works better in deep

See how many people voted the supernova XP as one of their Best Lane 1 balls for a specific lane condition.
