Heard this weekend that there was a "new" Fired Up out.
So I checked the website of our distributor and saw that there was also a power Agent.
I think these were balls for the asian market at first.They get everything first and in more editions. It says op=op, freely translated as gone=gone.
So it is an one time offer, probably because Asia has the new stuff for some time now.

Look at the balls in the top line.

Yes the European distributors Bowltech have gotten in shipments of these 2 Asian release balls.
The Fired Up 2 has been very successful from my limited exposure to it. Many people are liking it in Europe with multiple players using them to reach the finals in the Malta Open 2 weeks ago. It has been said that the Fired Up 2 is very close to the original Fired Up's (2005 production runs) and they are definitely angular.
The Power Agent is a remake of the Agent. I have not seen so much of these, but several players used them last week in the Storm Dutch Open with some success.
Both balls are exact core/cover remakes of the originals and look to be very useful. My understanding is they will not be on repeat order, so if you are interested, buy now to avoid disappointment.

The storm Dutch Open, that's where I heard about it. a friend of mine said that Osku "bought" a few new balls there and one of them was a Fired Up. I told him this was discontinued, but he said no, the Asian version is available.
Blockhater, where are you from, because you were at the malta and Dutch open?
