The Wow rolls fairly early. I'd suggest something like the first Icon for more backend. Just keep it polished, that's one ball that is very reaction dependent on the cover.

well since liked the WOW so much...

why not the WOW Pearl????

Excellent bang for the buck just like the WOW and it's surface is very easy to modify/change with polish.....

Figure long pin......highly polished.....can't go wrong.....

Was a great 1-2 punch for me.......no longer have the WOW but the WOW Pearl will always be in my bag...(have 2 others saved)

i would say that just about any of the Messengers would work well for what you want, most of them are polished.  my friend has the messenger Titanium, the one with the pink, red, and blue in it.  he also has the messenger Titanium Pearl i think.  anytime i see him roll either of these balls the skid right on thru the oil and make a nice little backend movement in the last few feet of the lane.  hope this helps.  P.S. i also think the Wow pearl might be a good ball as long as you don't hit any dry lanes.

I loved the Reaction Rev for backend on heavier, Rock On still looks great by some friends and the new Throttle looks very good too!
