Mega Friction Video
« on: March 06, 2009, 11:10:01 AM »
Ball is drilled 5 x 5, surface is OOB -- and yes, it deserves the warning label. It is versatile enough to see use on medium-heavy conditions after surface changes, though, and it does have surprising recovery and hitting power from deep inside angles for a particle ball.

Enjoy:

It sounds a bit like marketing hype to say that it simply "hooks more" -- but in this case, I'd generally have to agree. The ball is made to hook, and hook it does, more so than some of the other top "oil" balls currently on the market (Virtual Gravity, etc.). That fact, no doubt, is because of the Mega Friction's six percent particle load coverstock, which allows even less-handed bowlers the opportunity to create a more dynamic on-lane look even when bowling on longer/heavier patterns. AMF also did a great job with this piece matching core and cover, so that the ball doesn't die half way down the lane -- its continuation and recovery are superb, especially for a true heavy oil ball (normally, balls of this type might hit weakly from deep inside or burn up in the heads).

Just polish it up you end up with an oiler for game 1 that does not quit, I use this ball all the time last outing was a decent 225 so it is very usable.

Took it to 2k for nationals it died honestly from me playing the lanes in my comfort zone, the middles at nationals are too dry for it burns up way too fast. Pointing from the out of bounds in did work ok but would not carry well, left alot of 7 pins that way (righty).

If you are revtrex you might be able to use it there with his speed and power, otherwise my opinion is no dice.

Ball is a keeper for oil even polished it is, not getting rid of this gem.
