Title: Black Pearl Reactive
Post by: chitown on September 17, 2007, 01:38:41 AM
My friend just bought a BP reactive.  I didn't get a chance to see hom roll the ball.  I didn't even know that they made a BP reactive.  

Has anyone had a chance to roll one of these?  If so, how do you like it?

Does it say REACTIVE underneath the black pearl?

If so, tell him to buy me one and I shall send the funds.

This company has a tendency to leak out product months early to some pro shops, i do not agree with this but after watching a local guy throwing the World Class particle pearl for 4 months i know they do this.

... guess I need to work harder and "pimp" their stuff a bit more so that I can get something early too, huh ???

I always wondered why you didn't get the stuff early?

... guess that I'm not "special" enough ...

That's OK ... gives me a chance to check out the reviews first and THEN decide what I want to add to my already oversized arsenal.

the ball he bought is a BP reactive not the particle!  It says reactive on the ball.  The pro shop guy showed me the box and it didn't say reactive or particle but the ball clearly says reactive.

I tried to convince him to buy a Hammer! No just kidding.  Lane Master makes very good equipment.  I may pick up a World Class Particle when it comes out (the red one).

Can you get me one?

The Black Pearl particle does say Traction Reactive XLP near the Legends logo.  The Traction reactive is the base that they added the particle to (XLP).  The particle ball also has silver logos and just says Black Pearl on the side of the ball.  If the ball has gold logos and says Black Pearl Reactive on the side, then it is the reactive version.  Per Galen, this ball has not been sent outside of the LM testers, not even to BTM or BJI for review.  No pro shops have received this ball yet.  Has he sent you any pics of this ball?
