The core shape is a lightbulb shaped core with a flip block on it. i have gotten the paper work from 900 with the core shape on it, i will scan it when i get home and hopefully have it added to the link by monday.

Hey Billy...he originally wanted to name the ball Ego, but it has already been taken. Wouldn't that have been great! Maybe instead of 1 case, I would have got 2. Just kidding Richie Rich.

All kidding aside, this is a must have in anyones bag.

similar shape, but there is no nugget and we used different densities.

Looks very similar to a Cuda 2k core...

I wouldn't mind giving one of these a try when my Break Pearl is too much ball.

But Danny Spranza or whatever the guys name is that was doing Columbia and Track desgins is now working for 900, if he actually created the core wouldn't he have rights to use it?

Unless the core is patented would it make a difference?  If so work done while with the company is rights to the company

I can only assume there was some kind of agreement in place during the Ebonite purchase of Columbia where Phil retained the ability to use the old cores/covers but not the names.  

Regardless...I think this ball would be fantastic for me when I sub on the late squad and my Break Pearl just turns left and heads for the 7 pin.

Wow I sure would like to try and get my hands on one (or more) of these.

Cores not patented are fair game.
