Smaller ball companies have less market penetration...it's a simple as that.

Company is based out of St Louis, Missouri . One of the highest sets at nationals last year was with the SS. Look on videoballreviews.com for a video...

*on edit* Visionary does everything in their factory from core to the covers. They do not use another company to produce their stuff. Yes I own one...

Check out the Gladiator Solid and Pearl.  Won't find a more predictable roll on any other ball.

Visionary was the Original Hammer (faball) , they have been around for along time and make a very good product.

I echo getuaload's statment, if I couldn't throw MoRich any more it would be all VBP, and I am looking to buy more of their stuff as we speak just waiting to have more on-call time which equals more money!
