Just thought I'd share this....
« on: February 11, 2004, 04:05:50 AM »
Haha. You looked.  I fooled you. Now...

I was just wondering what kind of layouts help a person who has a lot of side rotation (like 70-75 degrees). My ball will just skid, skid, skid, then try to make a move when it's too late. I bowl on a reverse block, and since I play the outside, it just doesn't work.

I've slowed it down to even 14, it just didn't help.  We'll see how my stuff works tommorrow, after the bath.  But I'm just not comfortable with slowing it down, since my stroker release is at 16.5, i have to force myself to slow down, and it screws me up.  I was just wondering if any layouts suited one with high axis rotation.

And yes, this is my first self-made post!  yay.

What type of surface preparation do you have on the equipment you use on this condition?

Well, my diesel particle is questionable, I picked it up used.  My SmasR is box like BK said, but that thing had soaked up a ton of oil....

I'm going to bowl tommorrow, so I'll see if soaking my smashr will have actually helped it....but my diesel didn't give off much oil, so I think that I should probably have a different drill, it seems pretty weak, just ask BK.

Not to interrupt the banter ( ), but you might want to try going to more surface if you're going to play the OB on a reverse block.  You'll want a texture that will start up quicker, so that it has less of a chance to squirt downlane.  I think the Diesel would be a better choice due to the particle cover.  I'd try taking it down to 600 first, and if that's not enough, I'd try 400.  And I'd hit it with a coat of Doc's Elixir, if you have it handy.

Hope this helps.

Well, with a 75º axis rotation, the ball will skid further, and hook rather hard. But obviously the outside boards are not the place to be on a reverse. You must play the inside.

You love to use a play on words, don't you?

Wait, I think you are Buffalo Bill!  AAAHHHH!  lol

Yeah, but sometimes it's hard to play inside for me, I don't create enough of an angle to the pocket, but I'll try it.
