Equation 2
« on: December 11, 2006, 05:21:08 AM »
BowlingBallReviews.com has an Equation 2 listed now. Anyone have any info other than what they have? Hmmm, Heat Wave and Equation 2, things could be getting interesting. Hopefully someone will spill the beans on these two soon!

Creative or not, it's what was done with the original Heat series...

I'd check the USBC approved list to see if it's on there. If it is, it could be a sign of things to come!!

Track - Equation 2
Description:
Coverstock: Goo LS Reactive Core: Tri-Core Titanium Reaction: Skid/Flip

Most information gathered from Manufacturers promotional material.

Specifications:
Line Equation
Color Purple/Burgandy
Coverstock Reactive
Core 2-piece
RG 2.50
Differential 0.040
Factory finish Polished
Weights 12 thru 16lbs
Lane Conditions Light Oil

Copied from www.bowlingballreviews.com

RG is a little higher, Diff. is a little lower.
This is rated for light oil, while the Equation is rated for medium.
Could this be a skid/snap replacement for the Desert Heat?

Nothing but the Flaming T for me.


Desert Heat no sounds a little to aggressive for the Desert Heat.  Now the Heat I could see it being a replacement for.  Same core and a stronger coverstock.  I think I may have just found my next Track ball if this is true.

Monster - the name is a little more creative than that. The "2" is supposed to be superscript, so it's not Equation 2, it's Equation Squared.

You folks need to work on better names for such good balls!
Anything to make life more complicated. Most of us cannot print a power on our keyboard. So referring to this new ball on ballreviews will definitely NOT spread its reputation.

I think we need a replacement for the Solution PowerPlus Ex first.

I don't know, I like the name. We had the Nitro R squared and no one complained.  Everything has pretty much been done to death, the only names that were pretty "creative" I thought were Littleboy and Fatman...wouldn't we write this like Strapper does...Equation^2

However, I would truly love to see the Track "Legion".  The Hitmen can engrave above it "Hitman for the" and Cody can put "Official Ball Boy of the"...

If this new Equation is for lighter oil, why not this name:

Equation^1/2, meaning the square root of the the Equation!

Equation² = <alt> 0178

 1. ensure the Num Lock key is Off;
 2. while holding down the Alt key, type 4 figures on the number pad (e.g. 0178 for ²),
 3. release the Alt key to let the required character appear.

I believe you will have to copy ² from a word processor or text editor. This <code> editor that we are using, is well the .....

Or if you happen to have the Google tools search bar up (which is text)... one can go to the window and do the alt 0178 and it will magically appear, do a cut or copy and paste to this editor. Or even the <control> f = find feature will also work.
