probably the next in the EPIC line ...my  best guess........BUT...the Battle just came out w/ the Saturn...so then again maybe it's another midline ball?

I was hoping that Roger would chime
in. I actually know a little about it
thru an insider  I don't know if I
should leak it out though. Maybe he will
post on here with a little prodding.

Roger and Hank are at the USBC Tournament now and thats why you're not seeing a response right away.

I was lucky enough to throw it a few weeks past (thanks Hank) and couldn't wait to legally throw it in competition.  I'll wait and let Roger do the press release on it - but I'll restate what is probably obvious.  Jeffrevs is right, it is in the RS line and it replaces the RS-1 :-(.  I will say this is a ball motion they haven't had previously and it fills a needed gap VERY well.

If you're not on the email listing, go to www.rotogrip.com and be the first to get information on it when it's released.  Product launch is scheduled for April 14th.


P.S. - For anyone who is yet to go to the USBC tournament and is planning on giving the "out" a try, make sure to get this in your bag before then!!  All of the shots I made were on that pattern and it rolled absolutely awesome.

Pearlized reactive with a different core?  My guess anyway.

I get my Merc punched today.

To all who are interested...those of us who are friends of Roto Grip on myspace got a very interesting bulletin today. *edit* I feel much less special, there's a blog with the same information.
