Anyone else with a cracked S75
« on: November 12, 2009, 12:06:51 AM »
Hey guys,

Just checking out there to see if anyone else ever had a 900 Global ball crack.  I used my Break S75 on Monday night in league.  I came home and replaced it on my shelf in my heated/insulated garage.  Had to include those details to head off the first wave of questions...

Last night I went out there tp play around on the spinner with the cover of it, and there was a crack of significant width [1/16 to 1/8"] around half or a little more of the ball.  It''s been very mild out, even at night.  Since I work in pharmaceuticals, we use 59-86* as recommended storage conditions for our product line, so I use that as a benchmark for the temp to keep my garage at.  Granted, sometimes if it''s brutally hot out, my garage may get to 88-90, but since I have so much equipment out there, it would be nice for my wallet if I watched the temperature out there, so I do.  I''ve been known to open the door of my foyer that leads to the garage to let some of the A/C out there into the garage.  My wife loves that........

It just took me by surprise because with all the stories on BR of certain equipment cracking, I''ve NEVER had a ball crack before.

Just weird, I thought.

Anyone else out there?

I was throwing my S75 during the summer and set it in my room, which my house has A/C, and I didnt use it for a month or so because there was not enough oil in the league I was in. I picked it up to go practice for a tournament and there was a crack on the oppisite side of the ball on the serial number and circled around to the thumb and fingers. I love 900 global stuff. My bounty hunter and break pearl has been set out for a longer period of time then my S75 and no cracks.
