Any word on upcoming new releases?
« on: June 04, 2018, 08:59:01 AM »
Any one have any ideas\picked up on info of what the new releases are going to be??
Bowl expo is still 13 days away. I figured by now Schlem would be dropping hints.

What are you hoping to see? Or take a guess on what we may see?

I’ll guess and say an Idol pearl.

I would also guess an Idol Pearl.

Luke breaks it down pretty well in this video. I would have to agree with most of it.

Need a Pearl in the HP4 line.  I'm guessing Pure Cell from the International side or something similar..

I'm surprised I don't see anything on the USBC Approved list for their releases at Bowl Expo.

I think they learned after the No Rules info leaked a couple years ago. They had it on the approved list then it was pulled shortly after people started talking about it. Seems like Storm/Roto Grip wants stuff put out there on their terms. Not that I blame them. Marketing hype is real.

Looks ugly but specs make it seem pretty strong. Would be interesting. Since we are pretty confident that the HP4 line is getting a pearl, I wonder how that will affect the Intense Fire sales.

I think the Crush It on Hi-SP Youtube channel might be the winner for that spot though.

Crush It hit the USBC approved list today. Kinda seals the deal that it's the HP4 Pearl. Not seeing anything else though for the other lines.

Just noticed roto cleaned house on their website. Only the Hot Cell, Fused, Idol, Danger, Show Off, Ink, HYB, POW, and plastic ball left.

Might be a pretty big announcement at bowl expo

Can’t believe the Hot Cell is still there.

Probably still plenty of people intrigued by an asym urethane that they want to atleast wait till start of the upcoming season. I mean you have it on your watch list. I think they're rolling the dice a little longer with it.

I'm expecting pearls across the board, POW is the only pearl left in the line.  Idol is stronger than anything they've had in the HP4 line anyway, so HP4 missing a solid isn't a big hole, they have their hybrids covered with the Fused, Danger, and HYB, solids are Idol, Show Off, and Ink, so HP2, 3 and 4 lines get pearls I think, and with the Exist and AOSO getting discontinued so recently, I think they fill those holes at the end of the year. 

Crush It seems to be the HP4 release like has been said, pearl Idol is a no brainer, and we haven't had a pearl Show Off yet, so I'm expecting that too.  No inside information, but knowing Schlemer, this sounds like what he'd do.
