Title: RIP/IT
Post by: S-70BreakPearl on March 11, 2013, 11:57:30 PM
This is a much better ball then a mid performance line hands down.  I used it for the 1st time tonight and shot a 752 set with only 1 open ( a 7-10 split) 259 249 244, I throw the ball an avg. speed of 18.50  MPH and this ball has no problem making it back to the pocket ( stood 7 boards left of center and played the 10 board with it all night)  even I was a little shocked by the movement on the backend with this ball )   this is a must ball to have in your bag NOW!!!  Once again, Thanks 900 Global, you've done your home work on another great ball. ^5   


 don't 2nd guess yourself on this Rip/IT,  you wont be disappointed :)

I just used the Rip/IT for the 7Th time and once again I got over a 700 with it :)  289 out the gate with a solid 8 pin in the 11Th frame.  I only had 2 opens and they was both 7-10 splits or I might of had my 16Th 800 set in my career. this is a awesome ball and if you don't have 1 in your bag yet you need to get you 1 really soon  ;D

Got one on the way.  Man I'm so loving my Black Eagle and War Eagle.   Can't wait to try out  the Rip It.  The  pins carry from 900 G bowling balls are incredible.

 Hey Tony, You will love the Rip/IT just as much I'm sure..  I don't even use my War  hardly at all, Maybe once or twice in practice but that's it( if I even bring it along ). My pin carry is way better with all my other equipment ( mostly pearls ) then I with any of the eagle line. I know everyone different in how they throw the ball, So it may work better for some then others like myself.. Not giving up on it, just don't have the desire to throw it at this time.  Maybe its because the #s don't match up for me as well as they do for others that love the Eagle Line. Its not like I'M short on equipment thats for sure. :)

 The list of balls IM bowling with now

 Break Pearl S-70
 Rip/IT  S-55
 Dirty LOOK  S-73
 The Bank of 900 Pearl  S-70
 The Pure Hook Pearl S-77
 The Nuts pearl  S-70
 The Bullet Train  S-79 ( my spare ball ) LOL

  In the holding tank

 The war Eagle
 The Break Point
 The Favorite
 The Break Pearl, Pin down

Does this ball compare to the amf double clutch pearl?
Title: Re: RIP/IT
Post by: S-70BreakPearl on April 11, 2013, 09:27:48 PM
I think its stronger but others might think different. its a great ball and its hard not to throw it even though I have a lot of stronger balls to pick from. has been my go to ball now for several weeks and I'm sure ill finish out the winter league with it unless they come out with another new ball before then :)

If I remember correctly, it should be the Favorite/Long Shot Core.

Hello,

Which Global is best for a stroker with low revs?  I play up the 10.  Med speed.

Cav,

What kind of ball reaction are you looking for? What kind of conditions are you facing? The Global line is very well rounded, so it could go anywhere from the Hooks up to the Look series.

I wish I would have had a Rip/It on Sunday. Would have been nice to get some push then recovery with how fast we broke down the middle of the lane. I miss my Link at times like this.

Post by: tdub36tjt on April 15, 2013, 03:54:08 PM
It's not as much recovery down lane as the link for me......
Title: Re: RIP/IT
Post by: Impending Doom on April 15, 2013, 04:00:04 PM
I emailed Global to see if they had any sittingin the back lol

Post by: tdub36tjt on April 15, 2013, 04:07:03 PM
I would have liked to try the missing link. The link was a totally different reaction i get from global stuff....

They pop up on Ebay every now and then. Me too.

741 tonight with 2 opens, Both 10 pins :(  I never missed the pocked once with this ball.. once again this ball comes through time after time..  i have avg. almost 250 with this ball for the last 8 sets :)  how do you not want to keep throwing this ball.. like i said before, If you don't have 1 of these in your bag you need to go out and get 1 now..  this ball speaks for it self and then some
Title: Re: RIP/IT
Post by: S-70BreakPearl on April 16, 2013, 12:54:04 AM
the missing link was a good ball// happen to have a few still set aside :)  they are a very hard ball to come by now.. if you do get lucky and find 1 hold on to it.. they will be like gold down the road. :)

I plan on punching a Sure Thing and a Rip/It very soon. According to my source on the inside, the Rip/It is super awesome.
Title: Re: RIP/IT
Post by: S-70BreakPearl on April 16, 2013, 12:22:20 PM
your inside source? LOL Thats funny.  Ive been telling you guys this for almost a month now.  If it took your inside source this long to decide if it was a awesome ball or not, you need a better source for this infomation sooner then later LOL.   They do have pleanty of these in stock, I just ordered a few more from them for the collection set :)

What 9G/AMF ball does the Rip It resemble?? or other manufacturers products?? Since BTM & BJI have not reviewed it yet, I have nothing to compare it to (as if that is some help). My house will be among the last to physically see one. THX
Title: Re: RIP/IT
Post by: Impending Doom on April 24, 2013, 07:14:38 AM
Well, the core was used in the OMG Pearl and the Black Mamba. Weaker cover, I would say that currently, it would resemble the length of the Wisdom and the back end of the Jewel? It's a unique motion to the line up.

IMO, I will definitely say the Longshot. Great ball for the money!
Title: Re: RIP/IT
Post by: Impending Doom on April 24, 2013, 12:45:16 PM
I could see that. Forgot about the Long Shot. They should have kept the Long Shot/Favorite in the line longer.

Post by: iamone78 on April 25, 2013, 08:03:01 AM
Doom, if you're looking for a Favorite replacement, the King Cobra definitely fits the bill. I went same layout as my Favorite and have an almost identical ball reaction. I almost like the King Cobra a touch more in that it has a bit more recovery from an inside line for me. I wasn't a fan of the Sure Thing as a Favorite replacement because it was stronger earlier. With polish, it was better, but definitely not the same. King Cobra is well worth the money, played with it on numerous sport shots and gave a great look on all shots. ('13 Natl's team/dbls/sngls, WTBA Paris, Sydney, Montreal)

 OK Bowlers, it's hard for me to even think about drilling up another ball right now for myself. it's even going to be harder next month when they come out with there new release :)   I have every ball set aside and the more I throw whats in my bag now including the Rip/IT the Pure hook - Break Pearl & bank of 900 pearl, its going to be hard to pull out one of these I have in my bag now to put what ball in its place? :(  but there will come a time IM sure ill punch a few of these old balls up and let them rip just like the 1's I'm throwing now :)  time will tell

Stronger earlier isn't a bad thing for me with what I am thinking of.

The Sure Thing did not work for me as a replacement to the Favorite. I see the King Cobra as a better fit.

I changed the surface on the Rip/It, and went with 500 abralon, then 2K abralon and polish. I saw a completely more even, consistent ball reaction. It gave it a little earlier read and more backend. I wish I had done this 3 weeks ago.

Rip/It and King Cobra are a perfect 2 ball THS arsenal.

I'm for sure picking up a Rip/It. I'm also trying to just keep it 900. If I start buying AMF stuff too, I'm in trouble with the wife lol.

Tried out the Rip It yesterday for the first time.  721 series in practice at lunch time.  664 series later in league (lousy spare shooting). Love this ball especially how well it carry on light hits.  900 G are putting out some really good balls.

well once again it didn't let me down :)  had a 278 first game with the front 6 X's then a 7-10 split spare and off the sheet  8)  this was my 7Th 7-10 split conversion this season  followed it up with a lame 203 with 2 opens ( 1 was another 7-10 & the other a 4-9 ) both opens  finished with a 256 clean   this ball still surprises me each week.. this was my 10Th 700 or better in a row with this ball..  if you still don't have 1 in your bag your missing out on a great ball.. :)

I knew I was going to get one before you even mentioned it! I'm just trying to budget in a Sure Thing, Rip/It, and getting my Jewel punched, as well as getting my wife's Jewel punched.
