go to the Radical Facebook page to see the latest comparison video with the Guru Supreme also we have a surface friction comparison chart and the impact of the lane surface on your ball. Its a real eye opener.

I explained a little more on the other thread.

Let's keep this one on topic about the video please.
Apologies. You're absolutely right. I think these videos have been great. Tremendously effective.  My son actually departed from his beloved Motiv to buy a Master based on the videos of this line.

....and the BTM review.  😉

I know I haven't been on here as much as I have in the past, due to some back issues I haven't been bowling as much or as well as the last couple of years, but I really appreciate what Phil, Mo, and the entire Radical Team do in producing these videos. These videos give you a chance to see the different balls going down the lane, whether you agree or not, with the information in them appreciate the work that does go into them and use the information how you see fit. If you don't agree with it, that's fine that is your right, but you don't have to attack the people who put the work into creating them.

Looks like a ton of work went into making this vid, big ups for the Radical guys in even attempting something like this. Tons of blood, sweat, time, and money go into experiments like this and if someone wants to hate on you after all your hard work you can just tell then to go jump in the lake or do their own damn test!  ;)

Being someone who just picked the game back up I had no idea how fast my balls would lose their OOB grit, that's very eye opening for someone like me. Makes me want to start looking at Spinners and getting a lesson in ball resurfacing lol.

We always invite people to build a Throbot and take the time to execute these kind of tests to find their own results. ;)

Nick - During preparation of one of these videos, if Brunswick found a ball from a different manufacturer that was stronger than the Brunswick balls, would it be included in the video?  --  JohnP

It's simple to do a surface refresh without a spinner, just take the desired abrasive in your hand, place the ball on the abrasive and rotate it with your other hand.  Be sure to cover the entire surface.  Now a complete surface refinish is a different matter.  --  JohnP

Of course. In past videos we have shown balls that hooked a lot and struck. Even so, the CATS data showed that the Guru went longer and flipped harder.

The purpose of this particular test was to show what happens as the covers start to get some wear and tear on them, because let's face it, a lot of bowlers don't address surface maintenance until they really notice a big difference in ball reaction. I'd love to do another test after 50 games, but it takes a lot of time for the tester to get the games on the balls.

I think the videos are wonderful.  I truly do, but I wanna see a hyper cell grudge match vs. The og guru.
