I guess we will just have to see. I know they didnt rush the idea that is coming out. They engineered it from the inside out then tweaked and tweaked till it was perfect. These guys are working very hard to get this right and when people start using them I think they will be very happy with them

It is still just a bowling ball.  Unless they come up with the next Xcaliber AND have a sugar daddy with some pretty deep pockets they have no chance.  Their first mistake was paying PBA registration before they even had balls available.

For some reason, this thread reminds me of a certain miracle bowling aid(not to be mentioned by me) that appeared on boards several years ago. All of a sudden, there were new members appearing hyping what a great product it was.

No harm in having options. I may well give them a try beat people using the usual names so they get all cranky

Hook Juice was going to change everything but then Milo ruined it saying things like $50 for a tiny bottle and is this USBC approved (actually might have been me, pee on the parade kind of guy).

...but really, it was expensive!


I can say that, since I bought out the last of the Remedy rx from Valentino.

From one manufacturer to the next there's not much difference.  Only marketing hype.  Those who throw various brands regularly can tell you as much.

So if you have a new company,  in my opinion,  image is everything.  Make something that looks great,  rolls as advertised,  and you have a good chance.  When looking at the first two releases you see nothing attention worthy,  and something easily forgettable.  That's everything you need to know about how this project will end.

Amen brother, exactly as I see it.

Saw Pontus Anderson wearing a Big Bowling hoodie yesterday at the TV shows and a few other shirts. No one really wanted to talk about the company yet, just said news soon...
