I have a Break S75 coming...my first 900G ball.
« on: June 05, 2009, 06:35:16 PM »
If I'm reading this right, it's a reactive pearl with the Soaker additive, correct?

How polished up does this ball come from the factory? I understand it's supposed to handle medium-heavy and up in box condition. I'm trying to make it usable from mediums up to medium heavy, using the drill and the surface in tandem. But I've never polished a Soaker coverstock before.

I'm looking forward to this given my recent experiences with 900Global-poured Lane #1 equipment.

this ball is a solid reactive, might have a touch of pearl in it, not much at all if any.

This ball OOB is somewhat polished by the compound they use on it. I never threw the ball in its oob state, I went strait to 1000 abralon before drilling. This was intended to be my heavy oil piece.

Lets just say it performed well above my expectations, strongest ball I have bought to date. And thats a big list.

I hope you like balls that hook. I have the regular Break and it hooks all that I want and more than I need.

I usually don't have problems getting stuff to hook. It's usually the opposite. Sounds like this is going to be interesting...

I thought it was a hybrid, either way its a lot of ball.

It looks like a pearl, but BTM has it listed as a solid with colors "black/white pearl." I suppose I could have just gone to the source and emailed 900G.

I suspect it will look like Columbia's Ricochet Revenge when it finally gets here. That was an overseas ball, quite a pretty thing at that, that is a solid blue with a pearlesque white-silver swirl in it.
