Same as I've said on these same-o posts for the last 5 - 6 years.  A particle pearl...but not like the Purple Ex.  More like the DT Vendetta Particle Pearl....one ball I wish I never had sold.

Low Rg, High diff, and a strong Mb. Wrapped in a neon colored hybrid or strong pearl. Maybe pink and yellow, or purple and gold. Basically I'd like the same reaction as the Break series. That or an awesome spare ball, the Ogre really interests me, but my glow amulet hooks so Im gonna guess that OU will also.

I would agree with the particle pearl. It doesn't seem to many make this combo any more. I had quite a bit of luck with those!

I'd also see some market potential for a particle piece - IMO either a particle pearl with a light to medium load, or a sold particle with a strong cover but with a light particle load to enhance traction.

Core should be a stronger one, with a medium to low RG and some good RG differential. Maybe something between the New Breeds and the Ogres - e.g. an Ogre core with lower RG and higher differential (Centaur-like).

Color-wise, I like the idea of a ball in yellow and purple, be it solid or pearl, as long as the color separation is O.K. Or light green, mid blue and purple, if a 3 color ball would be an option. Nothing murky, please!

Particle might be old school, but IMHO it (still) has its place. And since many manufacturers switch to a porous shell technology instead of gritty additives, I even see some potential.

I'd like to see another ball with the midnight scorcher coverstock, but perhaps a different/weaker core.

Seeing an interesting trend out of the answers.....particle pearl.

Wondering if the Ogre Particle would be this reaction??  I never fared well with the Midnight Scorcher......so I don't know.  I know of others that flat out loved the ball for oil though.

IMO........Ogre Particle is closer to Granite Gargoyle in cover, reaction shape and specs.  Midnight Scorcher was higher RG got more length and flared more because of core.

Hmmm...I think you may be on to something. I talked about this in another post, I just neveer thought to change the core for the reaction I desired.

Wel.......lookie lookie at what I got a peek at last night.  Someone stopped by and I was able to snap a couple pics!!  The box is incorrectly named, but I am sure the news will be out soon......at least it better be!!

I think this is going to be a huge release needless to say....and from what I've heard, it's going to be one versatile ball!!
