The Trend is a pretty big departure from the previous Belmo balls, it's basically a longer and stronger Idol Pearl that handles angle better.  I didn't even compare it to the Pro Motion because they have zero in common aside from continuation.  I'll make a comparison video in a week or two probably, but they're light years apart on the lane.

I think so.  They're pretty wildly different reactions though, or wildly different friction responses anyway.  I'm going to do a comparison/combination video for them so we'll see what happens. 

So Luke, after watching your videos, could you see the Trend,  and the Pro Motion as a 1-2? (Medium/Hvy-Medium). 

Thanks in advance.

I also was hoping for them to have different shapes on different parts of the lane, so they won’t overlap much. Much appreciated.

Thanks again Luke; It has to be challenging to bowl on both sides of the lane (But clearly a lot of fun as well. I also can throw it righty, but now NEARLY as good as you can.  That’s a extra bonus for you (Lucky butt  .
