A little birdie told me.....about new balls coming!!
« on: November 13, 2008, 06:23:34 AM »

2 versions which were already stated...Solid and Pearl.

Ball should roll up about the same as the Gladiators, but with a good 3-4 more boards on the backends!!

Looks like I know what Santa needs to bring me a little early!!    Anyone else????

Can I pose a question here? If the New Gladiators are the new highend line from VBP What is going to happen to them when the New Breed comes out? Galdiators be discontinued? I would find that hard to beleive or would the Gladiators replace the first two Ogres?

It will probably be as follows in no particular order...

Gladiator Line
New Breed Line
Gryphons
Ogre Line

The Gladiators and New Breed replace the immortals and AMB centaurs in the line up cause they can no longer be produced.

mainzer,

This is the way I see it.

Gladiators replaced the Executioner line and have same basic ball motion as they did.  

New Breed will replace Immortal line and AMB Centaur. Ball for floods now is Ogre Particle.

So from most hooking to least.

New Breed
Gryphon
Gladiator
Ogre
B/G Centaur and Urethane Ogre

Ogre Urethane also on the list.  Nice!


That's GOOD news. Not that I'd need it - my SBG might last eternally - but nice to see that this amrket niche will be filled again!

I am in agreement with Scott in terms of where the New Breed falls into the current lineup.

Based on it reading the same as the Gladiators and having 3-4 boards more punch...definitely!!

Gary,

Thanks!

I believe he is saying this because they will replace both the immortals and amb line.

basically a high flare and high performance line. IMO there is a need to fill that gap for those that need/want a ball that will flare a good amount as even my gladiator doesnt flare a whole lot and its drilled to increase flare.

something along the lines of the immortal solid or amb solid/bronze would be just great.

Perfect icewall.

For my $$$ it about how the core matches up with the cover stock.

Nor Cal,

Some of the information is from prior posts and what not.  The post I made reference to is from something Jason mentioned from a couple days ago I believe.

The color scheme on the solid is absolutely hideous, yet so appropriate for a Christmas season release date.  LOL

The pictures in the links are missing now when I look. Saw them earlier then had to rock my daugther to sleep and now they are gone?

Any help?
