Title: Does the shell really deep in the ball?
Post by: John D Davis on December 25, 2006, 10:56:47 PM

I read a review and the guy had said that their lanemasters balls have coverstocks that go from the surface all the way to the block.... Is there any truth to this and if so, dont you guys think this is a very neat feature?

Yeah.  Visionary is pretty much the same way.  I wonder if that is why their covers seem to last longer and not die as quickly as other ball manufacturers.

L/LM also claim that their longer lasting coverstocks/reactions are due to using higher grade urethanes for their balls.  Visionary, to my knowledge, doesn't make this claim, but they certainly do have much thicker coverstocks than a lot of manufacturers out there.

Storm's Fire series and some of the Thunder line also don't use any core filler, though the Thunder's core is pretty large in comparison to the Fire's.
