Robb,

We should know how different the drillings and the surfaces are on some of these balls because a few of them would seem to overlap a bit:
1. SS Paricle vs Arsenal Reactive,  Animal
2. SS Solid vs Freakazoid & Animal Untamed
3. Hexplosion vs SS Pearl and SS Solid
4. Arsenal Reactive vs Animal & Animal Untamed
surfaces and different drillings can separate them a bit or a lot or make them too similar

Looks pretty good in general to me without knowing specifics. If I would add anything at all, my first choices would be a Desert-something more than the Blue Hammer, a Delta-strong reactive with something left on the backend, and even a 5.0...I don't see a particle pearl in there.

Seems like the GP2, Animal, and Untamed all have the mass bias a little under your thumb....a ball with the mass bias near your VAL may be a different look for you. I can see a Delta fitting in well, as well as an Angular/5.0 since you do not have a particle pearl.

Is there anything in particular you are looking for?
