I got a great idea for 3 more Factors:

1)Fear factor core (triple disk) with a Urethane cover, call it the "X Factor Revolutions" (since they swiped Reloaded....)

2)FF core again cept in a Dual particle shell, call it the "X Factor V"

3)Any of the Factor cores with a plastic (or polyester) cover and call it the "No Factor". It can be a $200 spare ball.....

Whats that made of?
14 Karat Gold.
Really??? Looks like rubber!
No the ring, not the hand....

not sure bout the Master line, but the power line has 2 new balls coming soon. A replacement to the HRG and possibly something similar to a tour power?

Oh I love it....man just throw a jab at the Lane 1 product and watch the buzzheads get offended like I just shot their dog....

Who's REALLY the crybaby?  I'm on staff with Storm and if you insult them I won't lose sleep over it, Lane 1 gets insulted and 10 people instantly break their keyboards seeing how fast they can insult me.



Randy, not true I guess.........look at my post on the Lane1 board called "what if"............interesting.....

Here is an e-mail I just got from storm:                                     Hello Alex,
The X factor is one year old, and things change. We think it is a great ball, but we sales dictate us to contiunually reinvent things. I suggest you take a look at our Fear factor. We put an extra weight block inside the ball, and if you polish it, it will be an X factor with better  perfomance.

Will it ? any one tryed this?

Storm Lefty, brimar and Ubik were the only ones that answered Pat Pattersons question, it would be nice if the rest of you would take your meaningless discussion to another site you are really getting old.

Here is the response I made about the fear factor polished on a different post.
Comparing fear factor with deuce.
The fear factor starts up earlier than the deuce and does not backend as hard as a deuce. The fear factor polished gets tons of length for me almost 60 ft. The deuce gets length and flip polished. Personally, I do not care for the reaction of the fear factor. It is too over/under for me. I need friction right for the ball to roll good for me. I really do not get a good look throwing this ball. The fear factor is a major disappointment to me. The only fear factor I saw roll well was a storm staffer that had the pin above left of middle finger with the cg and rad in line underneath (stack) This ball was polished and looked good on dirt conditions. I am sure that there are a lot of people that really like this ball.

Jaborni, name the so called "hard core losers" who swear their balls are better than any thing else and write on this screen exactly what they said. I don't ever recall them saying this nor have I seen it.

im very interested in a possible tour power replacement. id like to see something in the power line with the accu-tread cover. i love the power charge pearl i have and the core power LRG was a very good ball until it cracked @ the pin.

My new flash point arrived today and i will post my initial impressions on it in a week or so.

Jaborni, this whole Topic was supposed to be about the X Factor and nothing else and you come along and throw Lane 1 into the thing trying to stir up trouble again. What's your purpose of continually trying to start up trouble?
Gosh amighty, how can you expect to be a successful business person with an attitude like that?

Ok, the last two Master lines have had 5 balls each.  So naturally I would guess that the Factor line will have 5 balls, leaving one left for them to put out.  Should be within the next month, and the new Master line should be out this spring, like a couple people have said.
