Title: LEAKING AND LEAKING
Post by: tekneek on June 14, 2006, 02:51:23 AM
I heard from a reliable source we will be seeing the return of previously discontinued piece in near future along with two others that will have tweaked cores or covers in addition to the new release coming out the first part of July, a new core with new numbers.

Any requests will be taken at this time for future conciderations. It is my understanding the R & D department is working overtime to insure this year will be D/T best year for new releases and the most complete arsenals to date. !!!!

All this new information, rumor and Tuna flying around sounds like it could create a crisis.....I better start thinking about building an arc (the boat not the ball!) to save me a couple pairs of my favorite discontiued releases.  Where is Noah's cell number...................

like Moose said, its lible to be a crisis when all the balls are released with the warehouse scrambling to fill the orders. Might have to install traffic lights to cut down on the accidents.

Will these balls all be released around the time of the Bowling Expo, or is this just a tease for their release later in the year? Can anyone shed some light on that issue?

By the way, there is currently no Barrage in the D/T inventory.

August - recent core with cover tweak

Sept - tweaked core with solid cover

October - re-release of an oldie but a goodie

If life is like a box of chocolates...... what do you do if you don't like chocolate?????? EAT SHRIMP

when you consider we lost one release last season, that makes 3 balls in 4 months, I really do not see a ball a month release. Besides they're not the same line, its an addition to existing lines. The first will be something totally new, so keep your feet on the ground. I'm sure Phil knows what he's doing, I believe his track record is proof enough. Feel free to jump in anytime "boss".

I'd kill to see the Cure come back out, or at least the EGT coverstock that was on that ball. It may be a high-load particle ball but I've thrown it on everything from flood to nearly bone-dry this year on both THC and sport conditions and scored with it. It's a perfect fit for my game.

Title: Re: LEAKING AND LEAKING
Post by: JessN16 on June 14, 2006, 10:59:19 PM
Does anyone know whether the EGT coverstock had problems, or was it just a supply/demand thing with the high-load particle?

single density asymmetrical, I told you guys this several months ago in code if you recall.. Than expect an addition to the Vendetta line. And last but not least a new Element.
No more info so please don't ask. But that should be it for the balance of the year. The first one is really impressive, it may even take a Vendetta spot in my bag. All of you know how I feel about the Vendetta so that's how good this one is. Hope USBC approves it by the 20th when I bowl nationals. Think they'ed notice if it was not approved....just kidding

High-load particles aren't usually real popular because they typically require a LOT of head oil to work and they don't have that popular hockey-stick hook.  Or even that controlled arc look.  More of a start hooking at the arrows and keep hooking through the pins.

That's why I was asking about the Cure in particular, because it doesn't perform for me like most high-load particles do. I can use the Cure in a variety of oil configurations, and can play multiple axes, speeds, rev rates and lines. Having this ball directly led me to go get my second DynoThane ball in a month (Element Au-79) recently. That's why I was wondering, in the Cure's case, whether it had more to do with the graphics package or the color of the ball or what -- or whether this thing's going to die on me in another week or two, and I just don't know it yet. Right now, it's heavenly.

If it replaces the Vendetta in your bag, then it's worth watching VERY CLOSELY!

No, you're not kidding, and, "NO!" they wouldn't notice at all. They're too busy trying to weigh balls ....

According to bowlingthismonth.com the ball's name is Threshold.

Post by: newguy on June 15, 2006, 07:20:39 PM
Practiced on the USBC Nationals pattern today at the test center, had a good look with a Black Vendetta pin 2 inch from the pap cg near palm no hole,  2000 smooth no polish,played up 3-4 straight, than moved right about 5 board with feet and 3 with eyes and had a good look with a black Vendetta over the label, box finish, than moved 3 more right and 2 more with my eyes and thru an 8 bagger with the THRESHOLD couldn't believe I had 3 boards area at the break point. Carried every hit even the off hit ( a real measure of a great ball)until the ninth when I left a solid 8-10, thru the next one and quit. Rumor has it from at least 5 guys that the Nationals played exactly the same as the test centers pattern....

Post by: tekneek on June 15, 2006, 10:36:06 PM
yep that would be the name of the ball. Ok enough with the reviews Phil, call USBC and let's get'em shipped.

I found no probs with the ZR, very special ball, I could use it on fresh house or broken down shot. Great piece for everyone arsenal, wasn't billed nor expected to be a big hooker, great length and a predictible move off the break, control ball....

The Threshold is suppose to be something "new", still waiting for mine to appear on my doorstep.

NewGen Reactive Pearl with microparticle??? Did I read that right?

Is it very low load like the Storm Paradigm?

As a big D/T fan, I am looking forward to this release. But my question is around the coverstock. I throw rather hard 18-19 mph with a good deal of revs, and have found no luck with other particle balls. They all seem to move too late down the lane for me. I never see the "this ball hooks more then anything" that others seem to have with particle. I never try to swing these much, try to start straight up as I know these don't make drastic movements. Now I see that the Threshold will be particle as well, if I am reading these posts correctly. Why would this be different then the other particle balls I've tried? Hopefully someone can give me good reason, cause I want to get this ball, but am just skeptical about the coverstock. Thanks.

According to MTM this hooks more than the CM... OOB has more surface too... Gold, Silver and Purple? This should look pretty good and play heavier patterns... I am kinda psyched...

origional release date was early to mid July. USBC has had the ball for a week, I would imagine since the vail was to be lifted at Bowl Expo Phil is holding the release up to the general population and is not having it put on the USBC site at the moment, this is purely specuation on my part. I can not believe it takes this long for "big Bro" to pass the paperwork on the ball. We are still waiting for our staff balls, so we are no better off then the rest of the Dyno nation. Patience is suppose to be a virture, but not in this case.
