From what it looks like, this ball is used for medium condition. Unlike the original Rival, medium to heavy.

Well, according to the abs video which compared the no rival to the original rival, the no rival was much stronger downlane and several boards further left than the original rival.  According to buddies, the no rival and the arch rival are the exact same cover/core ball, just the no rival being international.

The No Rival does not use the same core as the Arch Rival unless a few websites have the differential numbers messed up for the Arch Rival.

In 15# the Rival and No Rival have the same core with 0.046 diff.
The Arch Rival has 0.056 diff. at 15#, so it should flare about an inch more for most people.

Urbanshaft here you go...

Link to info
http://www.absbowling.co.jp/products/balls/2008/no_rival/index.html

Put your mouse pointer where it says "curve movie" a blue box pops down and then click on the first row of japanese letters..

Wait for the grey box/screen to come up, then you can choose if you wanna open or save the no.rival.wmv file...

I'd recommend that you save it since most of their videos are really big files and that means taking a long time to open..

Looks, like you mean the color combination? OK.
(just that the RB was a particle pearl)
