Continuum Intermediate Diff?
« on: April 28, 2019, 12:08:22 PM »
I am familiar with R.g. and Diff. when it comes to most balls, what does Intermediate Differential of 0.020 in the Continuum mean?
If I purchase this ball and drill it Pin up and Mass Bias below the Thumb, how would the Intermediate Diff play a roll in the balls performance?

The Space Time Continuum has that amount of intermediate diff, the Continuum has .029. Let me know which you're considering.

In general I've found the higher the Int. Diff the more mid lane and continuation the ball will exhibit. Consider this when choosing a layout.

Not knowing your pap or what that works out to be in a dual angle measurement, the result will be a ball that reads the lane slower is and smoother on the back compared to a ball with the mass bias closer to the vertical axis line. Pin up is also a very subjective measurement because it's height and distance from the pap matters too.

Ok, I went on a bit of a tangent. The higher the number for the intermediate diff, the more midlane read and thus more forward motion through the pins. .020 will be comparable with most other strong assyms on the market.

I'm 3 3/4 over & 1 up, I have medium to higher revs, I don't have any more technical info to give other than I use a Sarge-Easter drilling. I own the Honey Badger pearl drilled pin above the middle finger and mass bias below the thumb, I like my badger for the most part but the high Rg and low.020 diff. sometimes doesn't have enough puncb.

Well, with the same layout, you'll have a bit earlier smoother reaction. I would take the polish off to give it a bit different look.

I would strongly recommend you figure out you're axis tilt. less tilt and a big int. diff don't mix well IMO. given you're PAP I suspect you have high tilt so should be a good match.

Yes, I'm higher than 45 degrees tilt.
