how do players like pete weber and brad angelo create such sick 'voodoo roll' where the ball has very high axis tilt and rotation? i know how to create the rotation and have always wanted better axis tilt

if you look at pete webers roll for example he has an almost perpendicular roll to the lane with lots of side roll resulting in excelent pin carry cause it goes kinda long and flips alot just naturally

Natural talent goes along way. Pete joined the tour at 17! Not many are good at anything at 17!

Pete used to have 90 degrees. Over the years he has decreased it to about 60 degrees

Not too long ago I went from almost no tilt to (as much as) 50 degrees or so. I've no idea if what I did is the "right" way, but I changed my starting hand position. I cannot get my hand in that position without a ball in it. My thumb is at about 4 o'clock and my fingers at about 9 or 10. I maintain that thru the release, ie, I get a TON of side roll. I come from behind the ball off in a path nearly parallel with the ground. I can now vary my track from almost a full roller with my old up the back release to a near spinner (about a 4" diameter or less track).
