  I wish they would mix it up from time to time and go back to some of there older cores which worked very well back in the day  ;D  Like the Maniac core and use it with a different cover or the  Double Cross core or even there #1 seller the Break core with a much stronger cover then the S-70 or even a weaker cover :P.  as for the Grip it, its  Not a bad ball for price as well as the Rip/IT ( which I like a little better )  both are very under rated balls and IM not sure why that is. I have a buddy that loves his Sure thing and now he is going to throw thr Grip /IT next.


 Cant wait to see what they put out next week  ;)   Merry Christmas to all and be careful over the Holidays..  SANTA  (Global900) I got a new stocking which will hold at least 2 to 3  new balls.. Ho Ho Ho ;D
If you want it, go after it and make it happen.  If you don't, you have no one to blame but yourself....or maybe your just not throwing the right equipment  :)

I would love a ball with the break core and a stronger cover

I changed the surface on the Grip It prior to league last night. I hit it on 4 sideds with a T pad and put some polish on it. I was seeing it read a bit early and not retaining energy at the pins in previous league nights. As a result this was not allowing me to move deep enough as the lanes transitioned. However, after making the surface change, I had much better results. On the fresh, it worked flawlessly as it had without polish. When the lanes transitioned, that's when I really saw this ball perform. The polish gave it a little extra length and the move off the dry was as strong as it was when on fresh oil. I could easily move deeper and still have the same ball motion and more recovery room to the right. I have yet to find a ball that I could use all 3 games from start to finish, but the Grip It accomplishes that. All in all, this ball works great with multiple angles and numerous shots.
