What do you want from the next release.
« on: August 06, 2008, 05:51:02 PM »
Seeing how we were given a pearl ball in the KP. The new wave of equipment will start to be tested and looked at in being made. Now what would you guys like to see come from the new track. Pick a ball for each line.

I myself know the brand signiture is skid flip, however with columbia getting away from thiers somewhat with the swing and arch rival. I would like to see something really made for heavy oil. I know the Rising can cover it, but I want something that is made for just oil. I would like to see something Particle come out. I would like to see this in the Rising line.

In the Kinetic line I would like to see maybe something with a little stronger core. With the MB strength in the .010+ area. Other then that the line is complet.

The Temper line I would like to see something that would go real long and then give the temper reaction off the back. Smooth and controled.

Rising Line- Definitely something particle and for longer, heavy oil.

Kinetic Line- Particle Pearl or Hybrid coverstock in between the Kinetic Energy and Kinetic that's more arc than skid/flip.

Temper Line- A pearl long and strong ball like the Power Machine but something more for medium to light oil with a high RG and lower differential. Symetrical core would also be nice.

And here's a few names I thought would be nice for the next ball/s:
Deep Rising
Phoenix Rising
Kinetic Force
Uproar

In the HP Line I would like to see a heavy oiler also just without particle.

In the UMP Line I would like to see an even weaker pearl with kinetic type motion maybe a bit tamer.

In the MP Line a very weak pearl with control an no Particle. THinking along the lines of a stronger tornado.

I HATE particle.
Would be cool to maybe see what happens on some of these balls if they mix/match some of these covers and cores across price points.
I would like to see the UP Gen1 cover use a pearl version and have the same core numbers as the UpRising.
It would be cool to have some core strengths somewhere inbetween the .03+ in the MegaTron and the .008 or lower that the other cores have.
Would like a Shuttle core with UMP Gen 1 cover.
But, everything that has come out has exceeded my expectations so I am sure whatever they do, I will say, "oh yeah, that was a great idea!"

I'd like to see a Particle/Pearl in the Rising line.

A light load particle solid in the Kinetic line(i.e. something similar to Ogre Particle)

Weaker Pearl ball in the Temper/Tantrum line (high RG, low Diff). I like the name from On Fire (Uproar).

Im so glad people are brainwashed to think that TRACK sucks. And its even funnier when im carrying with my TRACK ball and they're going flat ten with their BRUNSWICK ball.

Bowling balls don't need teeth. This is a debate that will go on until we are all blue in the face but I think some of the coverstocks have the characteristics on particle without the drawbacks to particle. Every particle ball I have ever owed except the Big Blue Pearl was allergic to carrydown.

I would like to see a weak core in the Tantrum cover. A really strong 1000 grit solid cover on the Temper line core (control) for oil would be cool also.

No particle for me either.

Would be cool to throw the shuttle core with the UP Gen 1 cover. (Temper core, Rising cover). I bet that combo would like oil!

I can't really see anything out of the Rising line.  Maybe a pearl, but I don't know how well that would work with such a large core.  Ooh, how about a Rising type with the midlane strength if not more than the Kinetic Energy?

Out of the Kinetic line, I wish the Pearl had a higher RG and wish the Kinetic was redone-I hate how filthy that ball gets after one roll.  As for the Kinetic Energy,  I can't ask for anything more.

The temper/tantrum line-I think they are just fine the way they are.  The only thing that is keeping me from getting either is that my Equation and Phoenix will be sticking around for a very long time.

lou, for lowwer rev players like me, i see a DISTINCT difference between reactives and particles, fact is, my RISING IS NOT AN OILER and never will be, its too clean in the front for me, the ball isn't early enough if i want to throw track for heavy oil i need a ball either like the NVD, RESURGANCE, or preferably a particle ball.

I would like to see a ball between the up rising and the kinetic energy there is a large gap there the rest of the line i think is great and fits well maybe a different core with the uprising cover would make a perfect fit.

I see 4 areas that I would like to see addressed:

Resin ball for oil.  Something in the Dimension/Cell category.  My cell was much stronger than the Rising in oil.

Particle ball for heavy oil.  Something in the LaneMasters Terminator category.  When I'm bowling on long oil or the Shark pattern, the Terminator is my ball of choice.

Resin ball for dry/broken down lanes.  Something in the Temper line that was longer and controlled in the back.

Plastic ball.  I hear one is scheduled for January.  Any info on this.  Maybe another clear ball?
