Hey guys/gals!
I have been thinking about getting a Agent, but i have heard that the crack easily is that true?

Thanks

On my third Agent and haven't had a crack.

As I said in an earlier post a HUGE key is to make sure you bevel your finger holes a decent amount - really relieves the stress and prevents cracking.

No cracking issues here. But the coverstock has shown more of a beating than my other balls.

I don't own one, but I never heard complaints about cracking on this one or another Reactor cover (neither on the board nor in th real world at my club). The 1st batch Paradigms had problems, as well as the Passion, but the Agent and the rest of the lot are as far as I can tell very durable pieces.

I don't know how I would handle this if I were responsible for Storm's marketing.  This question is similar to the classic question 'when did you stop beating your wife?'.  No matter how you answer you are either admitting previous wife beating in the past or denying that you ever stopped.

As far as I know the only balls that had any kind of cracking reputation were the SFA balls and the EOX balls.  I have never heard of nor seen any cracking issues with the Reactor balls.

Haven't heard anything about them cracking...I talked to Ryan Shaffer and he said that this is a great ball for me. This is one of his favorite balls that he throws and I don't think he has had any problems either
