Post Action, high performance releases? or are they more Mid-plus?

I think they are mid, considering the Action Max is coming out in July.

These are mid-plus.....I believe its the Ti-Boss 2 Core and some new coverstock, don't know for sure.

I'm in Indiana for Tour Trials and had my friend, who's working the shop for me, email me the pics......

Actually I think the new logo's are some of the best of any current companys balls.  How does it go different strokes for different folks.

These are new covers from Columbia the name is STS.  Stronger and more durable than superflex.  STS makes a larger footprint on the lane for added traction.  The reaction of these balls is different than other Columbia covers.

Action Max looks sweet!!

That's a pretty bold statement.  Superflex has been San Antonio's version of PK18, another tried and true coverstock.  If this is indeed the case, these two balls will be some of C300's best and most enduring products since the U-dot.

All I can say for sure is these logos are WAY better than the ones for the Jinx and HiJinx.

IMHO, those logos are pretty sweet.  However, if they're stamped on a ball with the kind of coverstock that C300 is claiming, those logos are gonna look pretty familiar in a few months.  Mid-priced or not, these might just be the next "Zones" for C300 to try and regain their lost market share from the last few seasons.

Wow, can they make the logo any bigger?  LOL

I know drillers that use vacuum presses hate big logos.

Don't ask that question.  The day will come when the logo stretches all around the ball.

If it's 2/3 as good as the ElNino Wrath...I still use mine every time I go to a local tough shot tourney!

Just saw the Wrath and Wrath xp, both look good, the Wrath is polished and the Wrath xp has some degree of surface on it they define it as fine.
