Wreck-It
« on: August 11, 2016, 06:09:54 PM »
My video for the Wreck-It.  This ball just hooks way more than it's supposed to, it feels more like it should be in the HP3 line.  Thanks for watching!

Is curious to see if Wreck it will have messengers.

Not as much as a tzone!

Both T Zones and the Wreck-It both personally contain messengers.
It's the same cover that's on the hustle s.a.y. It can't be that strong.
Throw one.
I'm sure it's strong for the price but it seems like people are comparing it to balls in the HP4 line. If that's the case why would people spend $170 on a ball when they can just spend $95 and get a similar reaction.
[/quote] Well in that regard, you're correct. But some people can get reactions that rival the HP3 for sure.

I'm actually bowling with both.  Bowling lefthanded on anything sport is an absolutely horrific idea, so I'm trying to rehab my right hand enough to where I can bowl tournaments and sport tournaments/leagues righty, but if it's on a house shot, I'll be able to bowl lefty.  I'm still a house baby lefty, a very very soft 215.

Luke,

I thought you converted to left handed? Or was I mistaken or have you recuperated??

Not entirely sure 59 is a typo.  This ball just absolutely hooks, that's why I say it's without a doubt the most aggressive ball on the market at its price point, and by SEVERAL boards.  It outhooks my Rocket Ship by a handful, and not just out-backends it, the boards it covers are significant.  I usually refrain from saying that a ball is a "must have," but I don't see how you can ignore this one.  Not entirely sure how they're justifying selling a ball that hooks this much at that price point, but it's good news for consumers.

Fascinating!
I wonder if it was a mistake or consumer test to see who would recognize it as such. I mean, a $90 ball providing the hook and oil handling that normally comes from $140 ball is quite a bargain, IF you can use or need that much hook.

Glad to hear your right hand is good and strong enough to handle that.
Not too many people can bowl/score that well with both hands. Congratulations!!

Lol watch the video and you'll find out, I actually compared it to the Critical.  Critical outhooks it by MAYBE a board or two and is a bit smoother overall.

BTM has the Wreck It earlier, more overall, and more off the spot than the Critical. All these reports of it being so strong really make me wonder if that was a typo or not. Hope someone can keep us updated here.

With the Wreck-It looking so strong I wonder what the Hustle S/A/Y is like since those two balls share the Psyched coverstock. Haven't read much about that or the Hustle P/R/O.

Of course I do. But it's still hard to believe BJI would put the Wreck it that high.

Additionally, BTM gave it a 55 and BTM does not give out as high hook numbers as BJI does. For instance the No Rules got a 57 from BTM; I think BJI gave it a 62. So BTM also agrees it a pretty big hooking ball.

The Wreck It is A LOT of ball in that price point!!  IMO this has to be the best ball in that price point!  Not sure what the other companies have in this price, but this ball is quite impressive.

On a regular lower volume house shot, they're so similar it's hard to tell them apart.  On a higher volume shot, I could see that.  I was playing the Wreck-It 20 at the arrows to 10 at the breakpoint and it was pulling up flush on Tokyo today if that tells anyone anything.
