Layout: 50 X 5 X 40
Rev Rate: 375-400
Thrown on House Pattern in 2 different houses

The Respect is clean threw the heads, reads the midlane strong, with good continuous backend. The Respect will be for medium heavy patterns, the new covers from 900 Global are strong and each line fits in its proper price point. The Respect will fit in well when The Moxie starts to read the lane too earlier. You can blend out the backend with just a little surface. I would not call it skid/flip but for some this well give an easier read on a fresh pattern.

Eye catching colors should stand out on the shelf. Goes through the pins strong, keeping then low for good carry percentage. The Respect should work well for many styles, higher ball speeds may need a little surface to prevent the ball skidding to far, lower speeds may want to consider a length drill to prevent early hook.  ;D

I drilled my Respect with the pin up and cg kicked out (50 x 4 1/4 x 30). This ball is clean through the front part of the lane and angular on the backend. This ball hits very well. As long as there is enough oil, this is the first ball out of the bag and I use it as long as I can. Great ball 900 Global!

The Respect combines the successful Tetra core from the Moxie with an all new S79 Alert cover. This combo gives the Respect a clean look thru the front part of the lane and an aggressive backend motion.

For myself the Respect gives me a ball that is usable on any pattern short of heavier volume or extreme dry conditions. On our fresh house condition I am able to play straighter angles and as the pattern opens up the Respect opens up the lane with ease. I am able to use this for all 3 games of league.

If your in need of a heavy oil ball, the Respect may not fill that. The Moxie which uses the Tetra core also will be a great choice. Another ball to consider is the Dream On.
For lighter volume patterns the All Night or a Boost Purple/Cream will be much better choices as they have core/cover combos that are less aggressive than the Respect.

Drilling: Pin above middle finger, cg kicked a pinch right no hole (5 inch pin to PAP)
Surface: OOB
Oil: THS ( 3 different centers)
I drilled this ball with the intent of this being my strongest "shiny" ball in my bag. Well I can easily say I am not disappointed. Yes this ball is clean through the front part of the lane and just has some stupid back end. What I like that separates this ball from others is the core. The low rg, high diff allows this ball to not be allergic to oil. I am able to open up my angles as quick as I want and the ball never misses the spot down lane. Even if I miss left in the oil the ball still picks up and is able to get through the pins. This ball is special. EVERY BOWLER NEEDS THIS BALL. This is the ball that every one is looking for. A ball that gets through the front part of the lanes and just whips on the backend. It definitely doesn't hurt that this ball has some amazing shelf appeal!

Dislikes: None

I have my Respect drilled pin above ring finger with the CG kicked right about 30 degrees.  The pin to pap is 4.5 inches.  I have a P1 balance hole.  This ball is very clean through the heads with a strong backend motion.  It is pretty angular on the fresh.  Perfect for larger volumes of oil or after the lanes start to breakdown some.  I could move left and open up the lane with no fear that it will not make it back to the pocket.  The respect has plenty of recovery and great continuation through the pins.

Respect 1: 55 x 5 x 35
Surface OOB

WOW this ball is special. This ball is clean through the heads and is real strong on the backend. The greatest attribute to it is how versatile it is. You can use this one on multiple patterns/conditions and not sacrifice pin carry. It keeps the pins low and is very continuous.

Respect 2: 45 x 5 x 70
Surface 2000

Seeing that the first respect I drilled was a monster why not drill another. This respect revs up early in the midlane but still retains energy on the backend. I can see this one coming into play on higher volume or when the pin up respect catches a bit of carry down.

All in all this is a great ball and the color scheme really stands out. If you haven't tried any of the new global product line this is a good time to start!

The new 900 Global Respect is easily my favorite ball. Its clean through the front part of the lane but still rolls heavy. I've been able to throw my Respect on every pattern efficiently. I've been able to play any part of the lane from up the boards to hooking the whole lane, and this ball never loses pin carry. If you don't have a 900 Global Respect in your bag you're missing out.

Drilling: 4 ½ x 6 x 3
Pap: 4 3/8 x ¼ up
Finish: Box Finish
Lane Condition: 40 Foot THS
Summary:  I drilled my Respect with the pin above  the center of my bridge and the CG stacked with Factory Finish.  This provides me with a layout that is very predictable and strong down lane.  I am very impressed with the motor of this ball.  This ball has no problem getting through the front part of the lanes with ease while still maintaining a very strong angular finish on the back ends.  Compared to the pin down drilling this gets me a little more length with a lot stronger motion off the end of the pattern.  As with the pin down version,   I am able to use this ball to go straight up the boards with a strong motion off the end of the pattern as well as to be able to get in and wheel on it.  I had a hard time finding a way to make this ball not respond down lane.  This ball is a must have for all levels of bowler.

COMMENTS
If you liked the Moxie, introduce the Respect! Wow! does the Alert 79 Hybrid coverstock make a pronounced backend move. When the Moxie is a too early or isn't finishing well, put the Respect in your hand and keep on striking. This ball worked well on all fresh oil shots I bowled on. Definitely not a light or short oil ball. The ball motion is very predictable, but does have some backend kick to it. I initially had some over under reaction with the OOB finish (1,500 Grit Polished), but found a more consistent reaction by changing the surface to a NEAT "T" pad (4K) dull. Man did this liven up the ball reaction for me. It gave it a touch more midlane read and a better backend move. This ball definitely works well on oil. Go and get one and earn some Respect!

COMMENTS

Don’t let the shiny coverstock fool you!  For a polished Hybrid coverstock, this ball hooks a lot more than you would expect!  The Respect is clean through the heads, stores up its energy through the mid-lane creating a strong snap on the backends.  Unlike most angular balls, this very angular ball keeps the pins low providing a ton of carry.  I have used the Respect on multiple conditions and it never loses its snap on the backends.  Whether it is a typical house shot or a more challenging shot, this ball opens the lane up.  Recently I bowled a city tournament and did not use the Respect on the team shot.  After only going +15 on the team shot I switched to the Respect for doubles and singles and went +300 for 6 to win all events.   The Respect was able to react in the oil and not over react to the dry…it really tamed the over under condition!
All bowling styles will gain RESPECT by having one of these beauties in your arsenal.   This ball is way too versatile to not own one!

RESPECT
Coverstock: 79 Alert™ Hybrid
Finish: 1500 Grit, Polished
Color: Blue/Silver/Steel
Core: Tetra™ Symmetric
Prime Series
2.49 Radius of gyration
.052 Differential
Positive Axis Point  5 7/16 by 1/4 up
Layout  6 x 3 x 4 3/4
Perfect name for a perfect ball..... because when you throw this ball every bowler will show you RESPECT when they see this ball perform.  The pins had no chance bowling at the Open Championships this year in El Paso.  After a rough start in the Team Event (182) the RESPECT came through without missing the hole shooting 504 the last two games.  If you like a strong symmetric this is your ball.  If you like to wheel it and curve the whole lane this is your ball.  The hybrid cover creates maximum skid and unbelievable back end reaction and I have to say this is the cream of the crop in the 900 Global line.  Your friends will GIVE YOU SOME MUCH NEEDED RESPECT when they see your reaction down the lane with this ball.  No such thing as a D.O.A. reaction here with this piece.  Treat yourself right, get a RESPECT and get some performance in YOUR game.....

RESPECT
Drilling: RICO (Pin in Palm, CG 45 deg with X-hole in line 6 ¾ away)
Finish: Box Finish 1500 Grit Polished
Speed – 15.5-16.5 MPH
PAP – 5 1/4 & 7/8 up 
Looking for a Benchmark ball? Want a ball you can throw on just about anything? Don’t look any further than the Respect.  I love me a little Symmetric Core with the 79 Alert Hybrid coverstock.  The core produces a strong, heavier roll and combined with the Hybrid cover completes this ball nicely.  Surprisingly you are able to move deeper on the lane and still get this ball to backend with power.  This is usually the first ball out of my bag to read what the lanes are doing.  I am able to move right and go straighter and also able to move left and bend it.  Just a very versatile ball for most styles.

Specs:
 79 Alert Coverstock
 Tetra Symmetric Core
 15lbs RG: 2.49 Diff:.52
 71 on Durometer
Bowler:
 Left Handed
 Avg:222
 3 Leagues a week

I was completely amazed at what this ball was able to do the first time I threw it. It is very clean through the fronts, and it reads the midlane with ease. The most breath taking thing is the way the Respect can turn the corner and face up to the pocket. The Respect is extremely aggressive off the end of the pattern, and hits the pins with a ton of power that will clear the pin deck with ease. If you're looking for a ball to play a little deeper inside and still hold its own, than this is definitely the ball for you. The Respect is very versatile and its a must for every bag. I shot 752 with this ball out of the box, so be prepared to make a huge impact the minute you get it in your hands. It will definitely earn you some "Respect" on the lanes.
