I've had mine for a few weeks now and I must say, it is a really good ball for me.
I had it in box finish for the first week, but it was WAY too much for me like that, so I took it up to 1500 ( finest grit the shop had ) and highly polished it with finesse it.
Ball retained more energy, but still had a good read of the midlanes for me on a medium shot. Has a powerful, but controlled, backend reaction and carries great. Holding the polish pretty good also, not burning off quickly like I have had other balls do. About 40-50 games on it now with no apparent loss of performance.
Overall, I would have to rate it a solid 8 on a 1-10 scale. ( Solid 8, imagine that!)
