Morpheus Cores?
« on: August 27, 2004, 08:11:57 AM »
Are the cores in the Rule, Animal, and Animal Untamed symmetrical or asymmetrical? I’ve heard it both ways?

I don't think either statement is correct.

I thought the Morpheous is asymmetrical HOWEVER I had just read that the rule had some pieces taken off the original morpheous to make it symmetrical.

All are asymmetrical. True, that a piece was taken off the original Morpheous core, and added to the MorpheousII core, but they are STILL asymmetrical!

I stand completely corrected.  Went to the track website and saw my mistake.

This statement about a Morpheus core converted to symmetrical referred not to the  Rule but instead to the new Freakazoid!!!

Whew.  NOt completely dopey but half!

All those are asym. As I've seen all companies mark asym balls with a mass bias marking

*smart a^% mode on*

all bowling balls have cores that are assymetrical, since nothing can be made on earth by humans to be perfectly symetrical

*smart a@% mode off*

The morpheus cores are all assymetrical, and are very assymetrical. The freak a zoid core is really not morpheus, it has been used on many balls before. (see the amf triumph, although im sure someone here will say that its not exactly the same, which it isnt, but it is very similar)

The Freak-A-Zoid core is symmetrical, whereas, Del took the Morepheus core and revolved it 360 degrees. In simplier terms, if you were looking at a downward view of the core, draw a line through the center of the core. Then from the center, to the farthest vector point, connect those two point with a circle. From a side view the core would look the same no matter how you viewed it. I don't believe there is any other core that resembles the Morerpheus in its revolved state. However, it is still the Morepheus core in one of its many configurements.
