Gravity Shift
« on: December 29, 2008, 12:57:17 PM »
Just a question about the Gravity Shift...is it ball speed sensitive ? I mean if you have lower rev then do you need to reduce your ball speed in order for this ball to shine ?

I have mine set up pin over but that's also because i have a little higher revs. If you do have lower revs then yes the pin under will shine!

Me either.  I would say it's more condition sensitive than speed sensitive if any.

I found the ball to work wonders. I have atleast 500 games on mine and still rolling. Also the ball has covered everything from light to heavy oil for me. When I first got it I couldnt turn a ball to save my life. I would roll it right down the 5 and literally let the ball do all the work. I then went on and started working on turning the ball better and kept the extremely slow ball speed I had(about 12-14mph) I then went and worked on building speed and I am now up to 15-16 and sometimes get pumped and really push the speed. The ball reacts beautifully for me on the light oil(OOB finish) and by knocking the polish off I can roll it on anything from medium to heavy with ease. for example everyone was rolling straight up 15 on the shark and I was out at 20 to 25 and swinging it to 15 and carrying all night. So lastly Id say in OOB it can be pretty condition specific at times however with the polish knocked off it still gave me the length I needed but evened it out just enough. I have it drilled pin 45* from ring finger with 7/8 side.

Good point about using it on all conditions.  Mine is 5x3.  I use it on pretty much everything except flood any more b/c Santa brought me a Virtual.

Gravity Shift is one of the earliest rolling pearls I have ever used. I find it to be my most versatile ball. All around great ball.

I dont know what ball Ive ever used that is not speed sensitive!
