-I've got a question for the Track Staffers
« on: May 28, 2005, 04:35:21 AM »
Looking for a ball (What else is new?) that is earlier than the Absolute that can still provide a decent backend, but not be anywhere as strong as the Ultimate. Since my Absolute is drilled almost skid flippy, 5 inches from PAP, it wont cover medium heavy too well. And as my Ultimate is drilled leverage something(3 3/8) it is way too condition specific to heavyish oil. Burns up way too bad in my house. Something controllable would be best but a strong arc is fine by me. I was looking at the Slash or Aggressive or something like that. But what do you suggest that would be good?

Thanks in advance...

FWIW, I have an Impulse Zone in the bag to fit between my Ultimate and Absolute.

Sorry, but what does FWIW mean? I'm guessing: from what i've...
Yeah, I was wondering about the smokin and how strong it was. Thanks for your suggestions. Any more?

Sorry about that..."FWIW" is short for "for what it's worth."

How about a Slash or Aggressive? I've always wanted to try a Track ball. I believe, someone in the track staff saw an Absolute and Aggressive together. Was that you EXCALIBER? If so, how did they compare?

Hey Kingpin,

Actually it was the Xception 5.0 that a few of us compared to the Absolute.  It handles about the same amount of oil but offers a stronger backend in comparison.  Because it's polished, it doesn't roll as early as the UI either.  Hope this helps some...
