Nothing else has the exact cover of the Threat. It is wow particle pearle BUT it has so little particle that our reactive covers are almost identicle.

The Triple Threat has a stronger load of particles and they are a very slightly larger particle. The Triple is about five feet earlier at the break point and about three boards stronger. If you put a high gloss on the Triple it is very close to the original Threat.

I still throw both and I only find a big difference if I let the Triple threat get tracked pretty bad. If it gets tracked up the particle will stand up a little more and give you more hook.

Hey rb,

I agree with Thumbs here, there isn't anything currently in the line that's identical but you can either try what Thumbs suggests or maybe a Hexplosion (lite load particle) high glossed?  The reaction may be pretty close to the Threat.  Hope this helps...
