Starting over
« on: May 11, 2009, 06:57:56 AM »
Here is my arsenal right now.

Virtual Gravity- heavy oil
HyRoad-  medium oil
X-factor- dry lanes
ebonite maxim spare ball

All are 14lbs, I am getting ready to completely start over and get either 15 or 16lbs

Here is what I am thinking about getting so far:
Storm virtual gravity or virtual energy (depends on how the energy is)-heavyoil
HyRoad-medium oil
spare ball

That is all I have decided so far, I need something to replace my x factor for dry lanes, and also something else to stick in there somewhere. Thanks to anyone that can help.

Chances are you will want to stick to the Virtual Gravity, or maybe switch it up a to the Dimension.  The VE probably be about the same level as the 2nd Dimension in terms of total hook, maybe a bit stronger.

For dry, look at the Natural.

Is the original dimension supposed to hook more than the virtual gravity or gravity shift?

I've never heard about the natural, when did they come out with it?

The Natural will be out shortly - the pics I have seen are of a Black Urethane ball, with a Turbine core as in the Hot Rod.

Virtual gravity or gravity shift -heavy oil
HyRoad
Fast
Spare ball

Since they are getting ready to discontinue the t-roads, I was thinking maybe a dimension instead of the T-road solid. Or do you think the dimension is to close to the virtual gravity?

Go with the T-Road Solid. I have both, and dimension is a early roll and set type ball, when you will get more performance out of the TR Solid. Just my two cents. Both are great balls though, I just find a little more play with the Solid than the Dimension.

    xfest, the only problem with the T-road solid, is that I probably won't be switching for a while, and since they are discontinuing it, I might not be able to find one.

    mr300, I will probably sell my 14lb equipment, but like said, it will be a while before I switch over, so not sure when I will be able to sell them.
