Appreciate your help answering the questions Steve. =]
Guys, as far as availability goes, we need your help in arranging that pro-shops can get stocked. So either ask your pro-shop to email us (address below), or send us their email address so we can ask them directly. That would be a great help.
As far as test staff goes, we're not really too worried at the moment. We're looking to get the balls into the hands of as many pro-shop owners as possible with a little introductory offer, and they'll be our sales people if they like the ball. The bonus is they're usually respected as the most knowledgeable people in a bowling centre. Its a lower risk than giving a lot of free equipment to players who we don't know.
That's not to say that down the line we won't be looking for players who can win tournaments with our gear. So if you can wave some shiny trophies under our noses you have a better chance. We do have a few European Tour players throwing the ball, one of whom i'll not name unless he uses the gear in competition, but we're extremely excited that he's agreed to try the Solaris!
