What would it take to get you (BrunsNick) and Billy-O in the same video?  Don't get me wrong, the new videos are good.  But they could use some of your musical taste and humor (& you throwing the ball).  You guys could be the Brunswick dynamic duo.

Love the new Massive Damage. One of my favorite covers by far.

Be good, or be good at it.

They should be on YouTube soon... I'd imagine they want those there as well.

I'd love to do videos with Billy O, but I am only in Muskegeon a few times a year.

Apologies if this has been asked before, but what is with the funky "gutter covers" for the first 10 feet or so? Is this just in case somebody wants to loft the guttercap and this way they can set the ball down instead? Even after watching Brunswick videos over the years, I still can't get used to seeing those things.

Billy O.,

My team mates want to know if you will sub for me for the rest of my life...     

It's a pleasure watching you roll the equipment.

I believe the "funky gutter covers" are part of the "CATS" system that measures ball speed, accuracy, rev rate, etc.

Wow, I may need to pick up the Massive Damage.  Look at those differential numbers!
 
Thanks to Big-B for the comparison video.
 
I love the Damage you gave me so much, Nick, and I'm thinking that these two balls would make a great 1-2 punch for THS and leagues. Might replace my Teal and Gold Rhino 1-2 punch!

Post by: Effybowler on June 24, 2011, 06:47:59 PM
Nick, or any others that have had a chance to throw the new releases already,
 
What do you think comparing the ulti-max to the original 2.5? I see a pretty similar shape in the video to what mine does, and was wondering if anybody else thought so. If so, I may have to pick one up. 


Title: Re: New Brunswick Releases
Post by: DON DRAPER on June 24, 2011, 09:16:34 PM
In the last two years the C-System 2.5 was MONEY for me. If any of these new releases has a similar roll I'll be the first one in line !

Title: Re: New Brunswick Releases
Post by: kidlost2000 on June 24, 2011, 09:21:45 PM
I would imagine the Ulti-max is going to be very similar to the 2.5 just a little more angular on the backend.
 
I can't wait to try the Ulti-max and the Massive Damage. Wasn't sure on the Lethal till I saw that it is the solid version of the Propel X cover I love from the Wicked and the Loaded. Hated the first Revolver and thought this was going to be a similar cover from it. Should be a happy medium. Very nice job from Brunswick.


Be good, or be good at it.

I haven't had the chance to throw these yet, but maybe this week at the Mini I will get a moment. I wanted to film these this week, but just couldn't find the time. All the demo balls are in Vegas, so if you're bowling the Mini Eliminator, come by and test them out! Both I and Ryan Ciminelli will be there...

 

BTW, that funky gutter cover is for Thro-Bot's legs to stand on.

Watching the team shootout, the ulti-max sure was getting through the pins hard, except when ronnie left the 7-10

The funky gutter caps are for ThroBot.  Because of "his" width, we had to put lane surface over the first 4 feet of gutters for the wheels and supports.  All of the CATS sensors are on top of the gutter caps down the lane starting at approximately 8 ft.

  When I simply click the link to watch the video, it pops up alright, but the quality is very choppy and looks very "stop motion" like the old B horror movies.

 

 HOWEVER, when I open the video in its own window or tab, the quality is good, and the play is seamless.

I had the chance to stop by the Brunswick practice range today and kick it with BrunsNick and Ryan Ciminelli. Although I wasn't able to bowl, I did get to see the new equipment in action.  The new C*System is one of the best looking balls I've seen in a long time, but to watch Ciminelli throw the Lethal Revolver was something else.  He has so much power and revs and the ball annihilated the pin deck.  The people coming up to test it had equal success -- this one may be the sleeper of the new crop.  
 
The Massive Damage was everything I hoped it to be.  Same length and the strong continuous arc of the original Damage, plus the backend and carry.  I'm sold! 
 
Finally, the guys were cool to hang out with.

They state that the Lethal Revolver is Propel X Solid. It just says the Loaded Revolver is Propel X without the Solid being added. My question would be why would they make another Revolver with the same cover if they are the same? Doesn't that make the Lethal and Loaded the same ball? I wasn't a big fan of the Revolver and I have a Loaded that I haven't drilled yet. The reaction the pro's were getting with the Lethal on the Team Challenge was amazing. Just my $.02, Bruce

The Lethal Revolver is a solid, and the Loaded is the pearl version of Propel X. I hope this answers your question.

Wicked and Loaded should be the same cover only at different factory conditions, with different cores. I love the Wickeds a lot and can't wait to try the Lethal.
You should really like the Loaded as well.

I used my Lethal Revolver and Ulti-Max tonight in league, and both were very, very nice!  I didn't set any records but both read the lane just as I had hoped, and went through the pin deck with authority! Nice additions to the line-up would be an understatement!
