I'm in!  I love the current AMF line.  This will have a place in my bag, definitely!  Actually, I just want the shirt

Ball looks good it probably will be a good step under a Train too bad I already drilled a 2nd Train to fill that spot. I know it doesn't really mean that I won't drill one though.....

Tdub,
 
I feel you on that one. I still haven't drilled my Train, and have a Black Eagle, OMG pearl, and now the Mamba on the way to go with my Bank and Aftermath on the high end.
 
Forget shirts, they should give away 2 ball totes lol.

2 ball totes would be niceas well, but I like having the shirts.....As for the Train, as much as I loved the first one I drilled the 2nd one with Rough Buff is even better on THS. I think I have to have like a 90-95% carry percentage with that thing. If I could figure out transition and get rid of a couple bad shots every set I would be lighting up the scoreboard with that thing. Instead it is just a few really good games and some ruined good games...

I really can't wait to put holes in mine. A buddy of mine who hooks it a whole lot was like "This cover is too early." He took it to like an A pad, and has the world.

He has lower rotation than me but looks like higher tilt. Rolled good OOB but that A surface on his looks mighty good. People who struggle with stronger equipment should watch him throw the ball. He has to be in the 30 degree rotation range and he can still throw a strong ball because he has tilt. Tilt is the most under appreciated  and least understood stat out there......
 
 
P.S. sorry for hi-jacking your thread....

Sure, that's relevant to about ......  2% of us, maybe.

That is a better looking jersey than the Train jersey. The ball looks really nice too. I love the colors. Those are the colors of champions.

I was thinking the same thing! Snazzy shirt, to go along with the snazzy ball. No one is going to mistake that ball on the rack.

Pusher!
 
That's what I call tekneek. He'll email me about something, and mention how awesome his Clutch Pearl, or Times Up, or Black Eagle, or Slant Hybrid is, and I'm like "YOU NEED TO STOP RIGHT NOW KTHX PUSHER!"
