The video is not me.  LOL!!!!  I just happened to find these this afternoon.  As you know, I am a 2 hander.  The video is a guy with a tweener release.  I just thought he threw it good enough to really get a good idea for what these balls do.  Honestly, I wish that I could tell you what the layouts are.  Sorry about that.

its me or the backends were flying? with the way the ball rolled on the video, i was expecting washouts most of the shots

When a house bowler misses the mark, misses the break point and strike, for many ppl its called a wallshot. When a pro does that its call adjustment

When a house bowler gets his finger stuck in the ball and fall on the lanes, for many ppl its called lame bowler. When a pro does that its called the Machuga flop! ha i like this one.

Dont let this ball fool you. even thou its urathane it is very strong , In fact its a bit stronger then my Ogre pearl. If you can get your hand on one i would highly suggest it. The best thing about this ball is that you will not have to move very much. Unlike reactive ball that start to burn up the track this ball will still get threw the heads and explode opn the back.

Really???? Interesting. Is it stronger than the Blurple because of the amount of energy it holds on the same condition???? Was your Blurple burning up a bit???

I would say its as strong as the burple , just a differnt look. the slate blue is stronger on the back. the burple will cover the same amount of boards but will be a strong arc and not skid snap.
I guess the slate blue retains all its energy until it hits dry and then it turns over. Last night in league i used the Slate blue towards the end and should have switched earlier. The Burple was strating to hook too early and i switched to the SBG and played the same line and the extra 2-3 foot of length made the difference.
