Shiny, using a dull ball in this house is silly.

Haven't decided, but I am limited because of the 1" pin.

I'm thinking about just going pin down 5" from axis, CG 45* and shooting some shots with that... then add an x-hole after I get an idea of the ball. (Probably flare reducing) Then shoot some more video.

whoa Nick, what a beast you got on your hands there. . .

Its hard to play with an inferno and not get burned. Last time I threw my inferno, the opposing bowler definitely got burned.

Since I only throw Infernos, just call me the Flamethrower.

Nice ball. I assume you want it shiny so it doesn't burn up with all that hand you have?

Nicholas,

   Which Factory Finish? High Gloss or Rough Buff? I think the ball looks great polished. Should still be quite a bit of hook even shiny. I should have one on my doorstep along with my Total Inferno. Can't wait to be up to par so I can throw em'.

  Make sure you keep us updated on what you see.

I hit it with the High Gloss shine, just to make it a little more user friendly for Medium conditions I normally see!

Planning on throwing it tomorrow in league, I'm excited about the Rocket Core!

This video will be take on a little more technical aspect of the process, from laying it out, to throwing the ball, then tuning with an x-hole if needed.

Got the footage for the layout done, will film the good stuff Sunday night

Does this ball have any power when it gets to the pins?

I have a Goliath and I felt that thing was for really heavy oil.  I've noticed it's too much ball when the lanes start to dry at all.

But, Activator particle is interesting.
