All has gone better than we had anticipated, from the products we launched for 900 Global and AMF to the extra products we are building for Storm and Lane #1 all have exceeded our expectations. We had a few bumps with the 3g shoe logo transition but even that has worked itself out.
Regarding our products, first off let me thank all of you for the support you have shown us, the Break was well received and the way the Break Pearl has taken off is just unbelievable. The Creature and Creature pearls are true winners and your support has proven it. We are even beginning to get some of the supporters from my pre dyno days to jump in in hopes of capturing the old thunder they once had in thier products, like the Heat, Elite etc. Welcome back.
What to expect in the near future, we have mastered the formula for a new and improved soaker coverstock and it will be on the next performance launch unveiled at Bowl Expo. S75 is the coverstock number and it has the durability you've come accustomed to from original D/T products. I know you will all love it. Nothing like getting more for your money.
The Break core is everything we could have asked for, we have found it to be versatile enough to work on multiple coverstock combos. The line will remain intact through the fall.
Lastly, we appreciate all your input and will do all we can to better your 900 Global expierence. One of my goals is to form an allegience with our supports similar to the ones I once had when I ran a former company. Waiting to hear your comments.
Thanks
Phil

Like everyone else, I can't wait to see the new Soaker. You guys haven't missed yet when it comes to matching cores and coverstocks, and I'm sure this one will be no different.

I wonder if you can come up with a solid resin ball (maybe an S60?) between the Break and the Creature (other than the AMF Heist and Code) to handle medium oil and little on either side of medium, with a symmetric core and medium to medium high RG differential (.040 - .050 or so). Kind of like the Element NE10 or the Thing Lives?
Just a thought ...

I am trying to decide how to drill it, but I am leaning towards a Rico type drilling.
Cant Wait!!!

Eric is doing a great job on customer service issues, two times you have already stepped up and took care of me in less than a year. I am liking the AMF balls as much as i am liking your equipment, The Heist and Code are fantastic bowling balls.
I am a huge supporter and believe the BR community should setup and support the little guys like your company, you are here daily and not ignoring your core supporters like our buddies from a few big brand names have chosen to do.
So how about a mafia series theme line, us Italian's gotta stick together here.

.Thanks 900 Global for all of your support the past year.

Only one suggestion from me. I like solid color bowling balls like the Extreme Orbit Sky Blue. I would probably by the Break because it is solid black. I simply find the solid colors less distracting, especially blue's, black, purple.
