Title: How does RG affect ball motion?

I think pancake weight blocks are underrated.

Only if you have real maple syrup.  The flavored corn syrup just isn't the same.

Pancakes are for eating, not throwing (unless they come from IHOP). 

I can't believe I bit on this one...  It's Milo's fault!

Yes, pancakes cores are under rated.

 They do not have the physical properties that allow some more “dynamic” cores to behave the way they do, but they can still be used effectively by many bowlers, under the right conditions.

 Hit a dry condition, and you might be surprised the results you can get with one.

I agree with Juggernaut in that the smaller cores can be good on drier conditions.

Absolutely, as unfortunately I've had better success utilizing these cores;  It's amazing how some of us bowler's (myself included)  can do to a bowling ball of any performance type, or surface.

It's a beautiful thing to watch.

Then you have the other extreme which is me who can barely move inside the track even with a More Cash drilled max flare.  Pancake cores sure are nice on a spare ball though for those with hand if nothing else.

i like my pancake Storm mix now but at times miss my Deep Freeze. That ball really had nice motion  with its lightbulb core.

The current Ebonite Turbo/R with its light bulb core will move very much like the Deep Freeze.

Columbia still offers the Scout/R...reactive resin with a pancake block.  Probably a great ball for the burn, or bowlers with really slow ball speed needing length and back end pop.
