Well, Tony Martin, posting on here, has, I believe, already called the Xtreme a Particle Pearl. BJI called the BA a particle Pearl. I'd go with that.
Since Tony has replaced Galen, I'd have to trust his word.

I'd ask him about the BA, if you still in doubt.

As far as I know, medium to medium+ oil, for average revs, average ball speed.

Terminator Vs Xtreme

I made the Xtreme with a more versatile cover. It will come in sheen with grey pad. The backend response with Grey pad with a medium particle load is much more significant than polished. But I also took the ball to a high polish before applying grey pad to give it the clean fronts it has. Smooth through the fronts and stronger in the back.

Terminator had the hard particles so it was a little harder to match the ball to the condition unless all you wanted was hook. The cover on the Terminator could not be manipulated like the Xtreme can.

Hope that answers the questions.
TM

It is pretty strong.  My BA goes a little longer than my Yeah Baby and moves really strong off the pattern.  Probably the biggest moving symmetrical ball I own.

For instance, I was using it first shift on a fresh house shot last night and I had to throw it pretty hard to keep it from jumping too high.  I switched to my Immortal Solid and was able to throw the same line without having to muscle it.  My Immortal Solid has a fairly strong drill and have the coverstock at 2000 abralon.  It''s a flare monster.

The fact still remains the same OLD LEGENDS PARTICLES AND RESIN FORMULATION WORKS FOR EVERY BODY. The new legends bowling balls work best for new followers. These are the people who have thrown Virtual Gravity's, Cell's, Black Widow's that won't last but 20 games etc. etc.

P.S. If these new customers would have thrown legends back in the day. They would be saying the same thing I am. PLEASE OH PLEASE MR. FRED BORDEN get better. Please take over the company that you and MR. SAM BACA BUILT together.

I believe they are making stuff the match up to a broader group of people today moreso than their older stuff. One reason in the ability to be able o adjust the cover uch easier. The older diamond particles were just to hard to cut with regular abrlon pads or sandpaper from  what I have heard. You either had a polished surface or a or a unpolished surface. That is pretty black or white.

I didnt get to roll some of the older pieces other than the Big bang which I loved, and now have a very weak drilled New standard that is money on medium to med-light patterns and shorter patterns, one I will never get rid of. I have been trying to pick up some more older pieces since they are sought after even today.

Now with what TM3 said about the Xtreme damage haveing softer particles, my only hope is are they going to have the same durability as your past releases. Maybe you can shine some light on the aspect for us.

Oh and PS, bring back a Buzz please, I am sure others will comment on this.

The idea might be to open up to a broader group of people, but i don't see it. All you have to do with there older pieces ex. The New Standard and Big Bang far as adjusting the cover is to use Sand Paper, Scotch Bright and Polish to smooth out the lines and cover. I too have a New Standard, Guaranteed. I am currently using them in my league. I would like to see LEGEND LANEMASTERS go old school. LANEMASTER balls would chase the oil line and LEGENDS would blend the patterns.

P.S. there are plenty of buzz out there. www.bowlingballmall.com has those. The Original Absolute Power, Satisfaxion and Masterpiece are excellent for medium to medium dry patterns. If they would bring those back. You wouldn't need a buzz.
