Nice video!  You can definitely tell the strength of that coverstock; was a favorite of mine from Visionary.

This house is not my "home" house.  I wish i could do the Vids there but the lighting is not quite right yet.  This AMF house puts out anywhere from a 38 - 40' pattern depending on the league.

They are older, higher friction Synths and you can see that on the backend in the Vid.

Thank you for the comments

Matt

Nice Video!
I can't understand why BTM rated the hook of this ball as 48.

Did they show what layout they used to test it?  I wouldn't say it's for really heavy oil but does well In med to med heavy

If they used those drillings on the crossover no wonder it didn't hook

Perhaps, they noticed about the fail after they tested the ball.
They wrote:
As much as we liked it on the sport pattern,with different layout,we think we would like it even more.

Yah.  I really doubt that the warlock will out hook the crossover, but I could be wrong

Mixed Breed Crossover
Once again, Visionary has added to the highly successful Mixed Breed line.
 
As with the Mixed Breed and Mixed Breed Pearl, the Mixed Breed Crossover uses the Z-Spin asymmetric core. This time, however Visionary has combined the best of the Mohawk and Serpentine cores with a hybrid version of our React-A-Tack coverstock. This epic combination allows the Mixed Breed Crossover to read the midlane well, while still providing good backend reaction with strong continuation.
 
Tech Specs
Color:
Blue/Yellow Pearl/Green Pearl
Factory Finish:
2000 Abralon
Hardness:
74-75
RG:
2.56"
Differential:
 Flare:
Total Differential - .045"
 Intermediate Differential - .010"

Available Weights:
13-16# (Mixed Breed core
 10-12# (light wt. core)
Lane Conditions:
Medium
Coverstock:
React-A-Tack
Core:
Mixed Breed
The React-A-Tack coverstock that surrounds the Mixed Breed core in the Crossover utilizes our, still unmatched, tacktifying agent to create more traction in the oil without sacrificing backend reaction.
 
This ball fits perfectly in the middle of the Mixed Breed line, giving bowlers a Mixed Breed ball to fit all but the most extreme conditions.
