Balls You Would like to See Made That Arent
« on: February 01, 2010, 11:54:42 PM »
And I''''m not talking about remaking discontinued balls. I''''m talking about taking a manufactures current cores and cover and making a new ball that they havn''''t or wont.

Personally, I''''d love to see a company put out a ball using a high diff (.50+) low Rg (2.499 or lower) core and a really weak pearl coverstock.

Something like taking 900G''''s OG bounty core and wrapping it in S30 Coverstock

Or Roto Grip using the Cell core and using Sure Grip Pearl

Or Storm''''s Dimension core and digging out the old Accutread cover

Im sure any of the Ebo brands could do the same but they change coverstock name every release so its hard to keep up with them.

So what would you like to see slapped together from the leftover parts bins?

weak cores and strong covers or strong cores and weak covers are the future of our game

This is why you have seen the Freeze so successful for Columbia and the Fast/Furious so good for Storm.

Get some of the older cores out of the closet and use the new covers on them.

Storm's Bolt Pro core + R2S coverstock = $$$$

Older Brunswick Zone cores would be great with some of their new coverstocks.

Just my 2 cents....

Zone cores were notorious for separation, which Brunswick will admit.  This is not going to happen.

Something like a Eraser core in a milder cover.  

I wish Storm would of put a Actual Core into thier BigHit series balls.  

or something like a Tour Power w/ the RX2 coverstock
