Post by: Storm269 on May 25, 2006, 02:48:37 PM

Is Paradigm a versatile ball that is suitable for most lane conditions without doing much on it coverstock surface ? Please advice....thanks

I keep my Paradigms(2) polished a little more than stock, and they handle everything well except extreme dry and extreme oil.

I have 2 Paradigms as well and I love them. I drilled the one 4x4 strong hook with a 2 inch buffer. I can use that ball on about anything except the extreme's. I love this ball I cant say enough about it

I concur will the above.  I own both of the Paradigm’s and all I can saw is they take care of almost all conditions you will face.  The Paradigm will handle everything except for the heavy oil which the Passion more than handles.  I’ve also added to my collection the Lane 1 Cobalt and between these three balls I feel confident that I can handle almost in condition except for maybe the very dry.

Age38, I love my Paradigm but dollar for dollar, I think buying an Agent or Fired Up is a better choice. Pound for pound, both of those pieces give plenty of reaction on what folks typically bowl on around town. If you like a real angular piece, get Fired Up! If you want to see something react more evenly with a backend reaction still, go with an Agent.

Would not put my Paradigm for anyone but pound for pound, the Fired Up and Agent and legit contenders. If you are a stroker, get a Paradigm for sure as the other two might seem sluggish acting to you.

I agree with the last post.  The paradigm is a great ball, but for med-heavy oil, get a Fired up or Agent, you'll save a couple bucks and you'll have a great ball.
