The Ratchet has been revealed fully already, and I haven't seen anything of another mystery reveal yet. It's suppose to happen some time this month, as there's a fifth ball in the lineup, but no news that I've seen.

 Trip, Hammer sent out and unidentified test ball some people, but gave them no information about cover or core. The ball has no name and is USBC approved under the name of "made in the usa", I believe.

I'm hoping it's a new solid coverstock Vibe ....

It's supposed to be the 5th ball, which ieaves only the HP release.  Looks to be comparable to the Nano and Nexxus.

5th ball of what?
They just released the Ratchet. It's not a high performance ball??

If it doesn't hook the most, it's not a HP ball. Silly Charlest.

The 5th ball release for this season.  They released the Arson Pearl, Cobalt Vibe, Ratchet, and the new Nail.  The Ratchet is an upper mid-performance ball with an asymmetrical core.  The new Purple Hammer is the High Performance release...which makes it the 5th ball released for the upcoming season.

Oh, OKay.
They still need a solid Vibe, though.

When I saw the video, the ball hardly hooked at all. Seeing as how Hammer always uses virtually flooded conditions for their videos, I figured it couldn't be a high performance ball; so it had to be a Vibe. The only ball missing in their lineup is a solid Vibe.

Well, it was Shawn Lee in the video, and he's the lower end of their Rev/Speed bowlers, only above Kim. That was a pretty solid snap for the way he bowls. We shall see.
