Author Topic: The Rising, Day 2 (Read 3279 times)

FastTracker33 · « **on:** June 28, 2008, 06:23:31 AM »

Here's just an update of how I feel on my new The Rising.

First off, though, I have a question.. What exactly does "HUMID" weather do to lanes? Every time I have ever bowled when it was humid outside, the lanes barely hook at all.

Today, my Rising I thought was a piece of junk. It wouldn't hook the same way as it did Wednesday, it wouldn't hit the same, but it still revved up the same beautiful way it does. I was standing 5 boards right of the first day I threw it, but hitting the same mark on the lane. It was kind of annoying me, but towards the 6th or 7th game, it really started moving again.. although it was a different movement. It's now more early and arcy, but that's not a bad thing, because it was still a beautiful reaction + it was hitting harder.

Altogether I now have about 13 games on my Rising. About 40 more games, and i'll probably be back on Track.

Thanks for reading!
Remember to answer my question above, too!

The strength of that cleaner causes a loss of reaction. I know because of people who only use that cleaner who have stated there ebonite equipment stoped hooking after the use of that cleaner. The cleaner does not play well with ebonite covers that's what it means.

I agree with the comments that you can't get wound up about bowling on lanes in the summer time never knowing what type or how much oil is on the lanes, were they stripped before they re-oiled. I have had experience to go into lanes over the weekend while traveling and bowled both Sat and Sunday, with the humidity and oil difference you did would not have guessed you were in the same house. I find that my summertime practice sessions while frustrating help me to focus on good spareshooting.

Well, right now, I'm at the bowling alley throwing my Rising.. And.. WOW! This ball is seriously insane. I did talk to the manager and the counter person, and its fact that these lanes are oiled and stripped every day. I really think it was the humidity the other day, because that has happened to me before (humid, non-hooking lanes).

Anyways, The Rising, Day 3 review coming soon! This ball, in my opinion should be reviewed this way since I am one of the Ebonite made Track balls non-believers. This ball is making me believe

Sorry, Scoot. I understand how from what these people have said how you can reach that conclusion. However, it is not logical to think that because it cleans the balls so well, its strength, that it causes the ball to lose performance. It makes no sense. I don't think you have all the factors involved.

I'd bet it was something closer to this scenario:
These people think that Legends cleaner is so strong they never bother to do an oil extraction or use Clean and Dull, every few weeks, and then do the oil extraction every 2 - 3 months.

No this a personal watch of this happening. I watched the guy who just had his drilled days, no more then 3, clean it and he used it and he had no reaction. This is what I seen first hand. This was no a odd shot. This is my home house and I know how the shot would play.

hunh?

"had his drilled days" ?

Anyone interpret gibberish? what's going on, Scoot? Are you sober? WHat is this in English?

If he cleaned it and it had no reaction, then it was dead before cleaner touched his ball's surface.

Lets see here, I was typing an example. The thing we were talking about was a bowling ball AKA the rising. So I stated, 'I watched a guy get his drilled Days, at the most 3, clean it he used it and it had no reaction.'

Here is what this means. I watched a guy get his drilled. Days, maybe 3 at the most, clean it and when he went to use it, it had no reaction.

If you still don't understand, I will use simple words. The man who came and got ball drilled, had it for maybe 3 days, he bowled with it the day it was drilled. Cleaned it with the cleaner, put it in his bag and didn't bowl till about 3 days later. When he pulled it out to use the ball, it did nothing.

So was I sober when I wrote my statement. Yes, I may have let out a few things but it was english. It was wrote just as if we were talking. Now the cleaner in use was Legends. Do I think the cleaner is bad and shouldn't be used, no. However do I find it the best thing to use on ebonite covers, No. I find it bad for them because of how pores they are the cleaner dries to fast and affects the Plasticizers in the cover.

I doubt the ball had no reaction after 2 games. Even for people who hate ebonite because of ball death would havde to agree that, this would be a case of ball death due to cleaner. That is all I am saying about this subject.
