ReaX Gusto
« on: May 27, 2014, 11:08:20 AM »
Here is the info for the new Radical release:
Shipping to Pro Shops starting June 16

REAX GUSTO

COLOR: Black Solid/Silver Pearl
CORE: Asymmetric

RG MIN 2.536
RG DIFF 0.038
RG ASYM 0.013

FINISH 500 Siaair Micro Pad,
Royal Compound, Royal Shine

16LB 2.524 0.038 0.013
15LB 2.536 0.038 0.013
14LB 2.552 0.038 0.013

As the final piece in the REAX Top Shelf line of
asymmetric balls, the REAX Gusto delivers the most
violent backend reaction in the series. Designed to
handle medium to lighter oil lane conditions, it has
the most angular response of any Radical ball to
date. We achieved this by modifying the coverstock
with a new set of additives and manipulating
the core densities to lower the differential and
intermediate differential values. Of course, it
also features the innovative finger scoop core
technology that expands the drilling options to
achieve the desired ball motion. The REAX Gusto
provides a ball motion that will turn heads almost as
fast as it changes direction at the breakpoint.

Just saw a pic for this on Facebook-- looks pretty sweet, and the core numbers are something that Radical doesn't have in its line (until now!); I can't wait to see this puppy roll. Love my Reax (have 2) and just got a Reax Pearl on close out, along with a Yeti--I never doubt that my Reax will handle any oil pattern (have one drilled pin up and the other pin down) and lane surface that I run into.

Keep it up Phil and Mo-- I'm proud to use Radical equipment!
Reax-45x4.5x40(pin down)
Nexus (original)- 45 x 4 x 35 (pin up)
503t-45x4.5x40
Source-60 x 5.5 x 50
Nexxxus f(p+s)-70x5.5x35
Marauder-55x5x50 (2k+polish)
300t-60x5.5x50 (+polish)
Melee-75x6x40 -- Anyone want to buy this?

Our Target on this launch was just that, I feel that in the summer many leagues use a bit less oil and it only made sense to have a ball that is ideal for medium to lighter oil lanes but one that will really store and go hard down the lane. As you can see we are actively filling out the line to give our supporters the best opportunity to shoot the big scores.
Wow that's Radical!!!

In my area it isn't just limited to summer. :-)

So yes this is outstanding. I really like the practical approach to the line up. Glad I decided to throw my hat in the Radical ring last year.

This ball is a must have in your bag. This ball not only looks great it turns a lot of heads when it goes down the lane and the sound it makes when it hits the pocket is like no other ball in there line up right now. who ever gets 1 I hope they will enjoy it as much as I do when I'm throwing mine..  They needed a ball like this in there line :)  great job guys. 2 thumbs up here
If you want it, go after it and make it happen.  If you don't, you have no one to blame but yourself....or maybe your just not throwing the right equipment  :)

This ball is great. It's very clean and when it hits friction it has monster recovery. I'm not a cranker by any means. A stroker that's up the back and when I play broken down pairs I tend to struggle. This ball fixed that problem as some. I went to the lanes looking for any pair that had been beaten up a bit to really judge this piece. I was able to play anywhere from the 3rd-4th arrow with no issue at all. The main thing that I loved was how well this ball went thru the pins. This ball has no quit and is a must have in your bag for league as well as broken down pairs if you're on the late shift.

This ball is a must have in the Radical Line, it clears the heads with ease and then reacts very strongly off of the friction.  This will be a good ball for THS shots, but will also work great for most second shift leagues. I highly recommend this ball.

I've used the Gusto on 3 different sport conditions and a few different house shots.  My benchmark ball is the Reax2 Solid.  When the solid starts to get a little too early and quit on the back the Gusto clears the fronts super easy and gives me the angle I need to kick out the corner.  It looks great going down the lane and like every other Radical ball I have, continues thru the pin deck amazingly.  If you don't have this ball you are really missing out!

Well I liked my first ReaX Gusto so much I drilled up another one. It has a 90x2.25x70 layout.
This layout allows me to play straight up the track area. This layout worked great at the USBC National championship. it allowed me to stay in the track area after the track area broke down. and everyone else was chasing the oil line in deeper.
Thanks Radical bowling technologies for another great ball and for this layout suggestion.
