Next release??? .....it's GRAND!
« on: May 16, 2008, 06:27:55 AM »
The next Roto Grip release?

Roto Grip's newest addition to the Sword Line is the all new Grand Illusion. When you are experiencing too much hook with the Cell, or too much skid with the Illusion, this ball is the answer. Matching up one of Roto Grip's strongest coverstocks, Ultimate Vision Solid Reactive with the Helios II core, produces an ideal fit betwen the Cell and the original Illusion.

Release Date: 30th July 2008
Factory Finish: 2000 Polished
Track Flare Potential: 4-5"
Colour: Cherry Red/Royal Blue
D-Scale: 75-78
RG: 16lb 2.53/15lb 2.54/14lb 2.54
Diff: 16lb .042/15lb .041/14lb .041
Weights: 14lb - 16lb

Roger, why not leave this dull as a replacement for the Horizon Solid?  Nothing against polished solid covers, but you haven't released a solid in the mid-range area since the Horizon Solid.  I love mine and was hoping the solid version of the Illusion was next.

What will this ball do compared to the original Epic?

A polished version is a better separation from the Cell.  The Illusion balls have been more geared towards our Silver Streak Line from years ago.  The RS and Horizon series balls were much stronger and earlier.  We are trying to separate the Crown Line (High) and Sword Line (Mid) a little more.  The surface can easily be adjusted to hook more like a Horizon Solid.

Thanks,

I don't know if Roger would be willing to confirm or deny the buzz going around about a Pearl Cell being released before Fall?

Thanks for the response Roger and I love the fact that you left the door open.  Golden Globe?  Is this the Polyester ball that had been mentioned?
