I thought I'd start a thread that we could answer any questions about the company and products.
As you've seen already the current ball is the Solaris. Its a low RG, medium differential core - its smooth and revvy and coupled to the strong pearl cover makes it easy to get to your breakpoint with a strong dependable move off it.
If you have questions about us in general post here. If you have questions about getting hold of a ball, email us directly on enquiries@kineticbowling.com
We're working right now on getting the website online, we'll let you know when its live.
Merry Christmas all,
Dave W.

quote:
two things. its spelled inquires, and two why did you name your company after a bowling ball thats already been made?
We did check this and either spelling is acceptable.
As for the company name, we chose it prior to the release of the ball you mentioned. We considered changing it, mainly due to search engine results you get when typing 'kinetic' and 'bowling', but decided that a year or more down the line it wouldn't be a big problem.
quote:
How much oil can the Solaris handle? Does it match up better to synthetics or wood lanes? Thanks!
Medium and heavy longer patterns.
When we designed the ball we wanted the strongest pearl available. So what you will get is a strong move off dry boards. The ball is designed with patterns over 40ft in mind, and for tight inside lines, although its all down to how you drill it. The core will give you easy continuous revs for the length of the lane (low rg, med/high diff), and we feel that matching this to the strong cover makes for a controllable but highly entertaining reaction shape!
We played a small tester competition (14 players) on a long multiple angle shot put down by a Kegel machine, and the Solaris placed 1st, 2nd and 3rd, with 2 of our test staff averaging over 230 with it on its first outing (one box finish, one lightly scuffed). We were, needless to say, ecstatic!
Obviously it'll work well on either synthetic or wood. But this particular release will roll well on those wooden lanes that sap the balls energy early.
There will be video of ball reaction on the website. =]
quote:
Is your ball a USA release or oversea's release, if you are not making your equipment who pours for you ?????
The ball is poured by Global 900 in San Antonio.
It's available worldwide. It's availability is not restricted to any particular Zone like many of those Asian only overseas releases. If you can't get your hands on one, then contact us directly or put your local pro shop in contact with us. We are currently have availability in the USA, Canada, UK and Ireland, Germany (and central Europe), with Scandinavia and Australia in negotiations.

While it might look similar, as someone pointed out, the numbers are quite different. We wanted a fast revving ball with a strong controlled breakpoint. The cover should be stronger on the Solaris too.

Its neither 2000 abralon, nor 2000 grit + polish. The '2000 grit polish' brings the ball from 325 grit to 2000 and polishes in one step. Its like a finishing compound.
quote:
Can I point out something that I have an issue with please?
In your marketting section of the new ball, you have the following 2 sentances.
"The low RG Trailblazer core generates an early roll ensuring smoothness throughout the lane. The Kinetic Solaris gives you more length and more back end than ever before. "
This does not make sense. It's early and smooth yet long with more backend?
Please clarify.
Thanks
Early roll and early hook are different things. The pearl cover isn't dull enough to hook early, and the core isn't a high differential flare monster than looks to hook soon or dominate ball reaction on the backend. It just revs fast.
With its medium flare potential won't simply flip and die, it'll be reasonably continuous but its meant to let the cover kick in late and not be overpowered by the core. Now since its a strong pearl and the ball hasn't used energy early or flared out and is still revving fast, the pearl is going to really bite into the backend.
We know that there are various was to combine core and cover to get angle, but we didn't want a lope-ing type of reaction that might be hit or miss for some players for our first release, or a big flaring ball that hooked plenty, but more evenly throughout the lane. We thought it best that our first ball makes a bit of angle. =]

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!

I have a comparison video similar to the one linked to above. I won't mention the ball here in case its taken the wrong way, although needless to say i think its a fantastic ball otherwise i wouldn't have one, but you never know.
If you'd like to see the video, its 45 seconds so its 2.8meg, PM we leaving your email address and i'll send it.
It was mentioned that we may have a ball ready for release in about a month. There must have been some crossed wires, and although we will be producing new equipment, it won't be quite that soon.
Glad to see the Solaris suits so many of you, thanks for the positive feedback! =]

This is valid question, although I have answered it to an extent earlier in this thread.
We are bowlers, we are not rich business owners moving into the bowling market, and we are starting out in a tough economic time. We simply do not have the huge amount of money needed to wade into the market trading blows with the likes of Storm and Brunswick on the R&D front. That will hopefully come in time, success permitting.
We think it's much more sensible to start by working with an established and respected company with plenty of experience, and get proven technology and a high performance ball or two out there first, to show that we know what a good ball should roll like, and to pave the way for expansion of the R&D side of the business.
As far as the core questions and the rehashing opinions go, we notice that some bowlers seem to believe that if a core shape is similar in 2 balls, they must roll similarly. You can't tell core densities from a graphic. The numbers of the balls in question are different, and the balls will roll differently. The covers of the balls are different, making another difference in reaction.
We start with an idea of what we want the ball reaction characteristics to be, and what lane conditions the ball needs to suit, then the specs of the ball are decided upon, then tested and tweaked until the ball is ready for production. It's far from the random or chance process suggested by terms such as 'mix 'n' match'.
I realize that people can be dubious about the quality and longevity of new companies, and can understand if they want to reserve judgment. So until then we must try to impress via developing strong product lines, innovating, and demonstrating our experience by helping bowlers improve their scores and enjoyment of the game. Those are the things that as bowlers, we know we must work on, not our ability to pump out enough marketing to sell a new ball every month.
In the meantime, we must rely on (and thank!) the bowlers that take a chance on us, and especially the ones that help our cause by remarking when they do have a positive experience with our equipment.
We just want to put ourselves in the position to be sitting here a few years down the line producing great product. Since we bowl too, we're not going to be making anything we wouldn't throw ourselves.
I'll not turn this into a long winded post by going on any more. =p

"Dear Bowlers,
In the few months since the release of our first ball, the Solaris, we have been overwhelmed by the response from our customers, and flattered by the compliments we have been given. It seems almost everyone who has used the Solaris already is eagerly awaiting our second ball. The reviews have been better than we could have expected.
However, with such fast growth we have become aware of a possible conflict of interests with another company’s product. As we are still in our early life as a company we have decided that it is best to address this issue now, and will be changing our name, to Seismic Bowling.
To mark this change, and to reassure our customers that we are here to stay, we are very proud to announce our second release! By popular demand, the next ball in the Solaris line will be hitting the market early April 09!
We would like to reassure you that our company ethos remains the same, every member of our staff remains the same, and all agreements and contracts with distributors, proshops and bowlers will remain. All the information from our original website, including recommended proshop listings, will be transferred to our new website, http://www.seismicbowling.com in the near future. We will be very happy to answer any queries you may have, and you can contact us at our old email address, or at our new address enquiries@seismicbowling.com.
The original Solaris bowling ball is still available for purchase, but for a limited period only! If you want to get your hands on this amazing ball, which is surely going to be a collectors item with the original logos, now is the time to order! If you have yet to try out the Solaris, please feel free to contact us and we will put you in touch with a recommended retailer.
Looking forward to a bright future,
The Seismic Bowling Team. "

We don't have any imminent plans to release the pearl Solaris under the Seismic brand. Theres a chance of a re-release if the sales of the solid are strong and there is demand for more pearl balls, but our immediate plans are the development of the solid version of the Solaris, and then on to a new line of balls developed round a new core. This should take us into late 2009 so we may make a decision closer to that time.

or are you just selling off all that's left under the kinetic name that was originally poured in San Antonio ?
also If I wanted to get this ball back to OOB condition how would you recommend I do that ?
I got one, and I'm more impressed every time I bring it out to play with.
Carry is some of the best I've seen, and it matches up very well to my game.
just a sick back end.
LMK
thanks
