The T-Road Pearl is flippy enough for me  And I like the way it rolls...

I've seen several people in my PBA Experience league use the Shift, and most of them have theirs drilled for length.  The ball definately has a skid/snap reaction for them on those oil patterns!

With the current balls from Storm nothing - I mean nothing - has the potential for extreme skid/flip like the Domination.  If you can get some hand in that ball it has among the strongest move off of dry that I have ever seen.  

I actually think it is kind of fitting that Storm would end the RAD core balls with the Domination since the line was started back in 2002 with the original X-Factor had a similar goal - strong move off the spot.

And I do, we aren't talking about a high load particle, this is particle pearl. When kept in box (1500 polished) and as I stated, drilled to do so the ball is very flippy.

This is not personal but please don't throw a double in your league,average 200 and then say hey..I can open a pro shop?? You will be misleading everybody you sell a ball to..A med oil reactive such as fired up, t road pearl,thunder struck pearl..will out snap an,A- symmetric light load particle any day and on any house shot..Please get ernie, steve from storm involved in this conversation. They wont respond because they hate to get involved in stupid conversations!!!
This is why I don't post often due to the fact that 1/2 the people don't know what the f they are talking about!!

So 1 or 2 out of 10 house shots will a shift out snap the above balls!!!
Storm balls roll real good and very predictable..they have a great line of balls...

How is that comment not personal, when you quote me? At any rate, I will not feed into your ignorance.  However I would like to point out the fact that Coachlefty asked for reccomendations for a skid/snap ball.  And I made a reccomendation and you just said this:

Admitting that shifts can achieve that reaction. And I assure that the board is not losing anything from you not posting a lot. A recommendation is an opinion everyone has the right to it. Also its funny that in the STORM DVD they had Randy Pederson comparing the Shift to an Angular One...hmmm Now why would they do that?

And out of respect for your thread coach, I will not post anything else.  But check out these vids from buddies.com

The Shift:

Please also take into account that the MB placement on the shift is not in the strong position therefore it gives it a rollier look. It also has a weaker pin, I am not making excuses for the ball I don't have any preference of any, I just wanted to point out the differences in the vid if you were contemplating the shift.
