speed, revs, and axis
« on: February 13, 2014, 01:25:22 PM »
I have two questions I'd like to ask.

A couple of weeks ago, I went to practice and the lanes were not dressed on the side I was at. I was playing the track area with my breeze pearl with a 5.75" pin up. I stayed in this area because I struggle on dry. With my very low axis tilt, less than 10* (55*axis rot) my ball(s) don't get far down enough unless I move in, throw faster, and/or go to much weaker covers down to poly.

Question
1. does increase speed also increase revrate?  I ask because I noticed the ball jumped harder off the spot as I threw faster. (ave. speed 16.5 mph up to under 18.5mph high)

2. How do you increase tilt?

Does a round object have sides? I say yes, pizza has triangles..

It's not that it increases rev rate it delays response so it appears harder off the friction or down lane
The last time we worked out you had your hand in a better place more inside thus created more tilt key in on the index finger or the inside towards your thumb

Makes sense....

I totally forgot about the hand position. Being away from the game is risky, old (bad) habits can re-surface itself. I'll work on it.

Thnx Ric....
