When he sends a flying messenger, do his teammates point out that the ball deflected?

Nope...the frequent flying messengers just elicit big grins and high fives!

Exactly!

We were cracking up testing Keanu, giggling the whole way at these messengers.

Hopefully "Keanu" was running those shots out 3 pairs and slapping those 10's out when the messenger got them.  It's not my thing but "Keanu" would certainly be justified in doing so making shots like that.  Ha!  8)

It does beg the question:  At what point does a "messenger" become a missile?

I think when the pin hits the 10 pin before it touches the deck.

After we were done testing Perception vs Reality 3, we launched the Guru Supreme with similar specs and stoned a 9 like you wouldn't believe. I might have the video clip somewhere still.

Nick,

Out of curiosity what balls are featured in round 3!?

Edit

Nvm...that's not new. Hopefully round 4 is coming!

Some great observations on this Jackpot video by a guy in the other forums!  :o :o

Like:
"while the Radical people seem to be impressed with the messengers, watch how bad the ball deflects."
http://www.bowlingboards.com/threads/19400-HELP!-Can-t-stop-sucking!/page4

"There is so much in that video that shows the "myths" you've been taught are wrong."
http://www.bowlingboards.com/threads/19400-HELP!-Can-t-stop-sucking!?p=141290&viewfull=1#post141290


"Odds are at the specs the ball is released at, it's a pain to consistently hit the pocket, even on a walled up lane condition, with throbot.
http://forum.bowlingchat.net/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=11941

As usual everybody is an expert. LOL
We will keep doing what we do because we feel it is the best way to show comparisons and take out the human element. Plus we have fun screwing with the nay sayers.

I still like the videos Phil. Whether I'm positive about them or not, it's a good benchmark to say the least!

I could line up off of Mark Zuckercurve.  The moment I see a ball review done only by some young guy with 18mph+ ball speed and a 450 rev rate, I click off.  Well done representing a variety of styles.

 We tried to cover a wide range of styles ( speed and rev rate ) so anyone can see the ball perform on a house shot without the human element.
Plus we didn't have to buy throbot lunch or hear him complain about the lane conditions. :)

Guys I'm not trying to hijack the thread, but was there ever an issue with Radical balls cracking?  I've had about 12 in the past few years.  I've had 4 of those crack out,  those being Yeti Unleashed, Untammed, Monkey Whack, and Reax2 pearl and Solid.  I keep them in the house and throw on a regular basis too, so I'm not sure.  I'll continue to use the equipment, because I like the reaction!  Just a question?

Thanks,

Charles

We haven't heard of any issues, we do have a 1 year limited warranty which you can review on our website. If your products fall under warranty please go back to the shop that they were purchased from and have the shop operator file the claim.

I appreciate the response, but the shop they came from closed.  Also, I'm sure they were all over a year old.  I just threw them in the trash and moved on.  I like Racial Equipment and will continue to use it.  I still have a Primo and Score in the bag.

I posed a question on this thread and Newguy has made the situation right!!  Newguy and Radical didn't have to do anything, but stepped up and helped me realize why I choose to do business with them.  I appreciate the quick and timely response from newguy.
