New Element Zr40
« on: January 15, 2006, 08:36:49 AM »
Yo Yo yo!  It is real smooth and forgiving off the back end. I was able to play the tug area and still carry. A definite keeper compared to my other elements.

If you  play house and need to move in and control the lane but still keep a strong move to the pocket then this is for you!!!

rec the ball last week and had to let Billy know that I finally found an element that might be better than my vendettas!

40 ft House.....smooth and strong arc....38 foot house skid...Hard arc
37ft sport.....Midlane control

I usually reserve my comments on a new ball until it's got a few sets on it. Got this new beaut y'day and got it drilled up in time for league. On a shot that I've been struggling on recently because of the immediate carry down this ball shined,...237-268-248,..wow. pin over the bridge, cg kicked, no x-holes needed. This ball turns the corner better than any I 've ever seen,...KEEPER. Order 2,..they'll go quick.

I'd love to hear how it compares to the AU79 if everything is drilled the same.

I would like to hear some comparison of the new one to the gold, etc.  I probably won't see my test ball till the end of the week so it would give me some insite into what to expect.

Got mine yesterday Goof, it has made 3 trips to the concouse to be shown off by my helper, got it drilled last night, still have not had time to throw it, maybe this afternoon when I get to the shop on last night leftovers. Great looking ball, different color, has character, already have had several asking when they'll be put on the shelf.

Okay...I will say it again! it's a keeper. I am the true Dynothane Vendetta line man....The elements have been ones I have honestly had to work with.  BUTTTTTTTTT

This one still has me shaking my head. GO GO GO GO

In Comparison. This is a much better lane control then the AU. It opened the lane up further down then the original element. It still has the power to crush the pocket and carry on even those light hits. I will keep this Element in my bag.

The only thing I need now is to get one with DD on the side. So the storm guys will know I am coming.....

Petting my seed ball as I read this thread... 2 inch pin but 4.5 ozs top???

Driller dudes... 4 1/16 middle 4 1/4 ring so that should eliminate some top as I understand it as long as I stick to an over-the-label drill huh?

I already have

1) CP drilled pin above and on gripline... cg 3/4 inch negative
2) VP drilled pin below and on gripline... cg 1/4 inch negative
3) Energy drill pin below ring finger 45 degree no hole

I was considering a stacked leverage layout but would this overlap the Energy though? I recall reading that this is an "extra control" version of Soaker... to me that smacks of all midlane read... but looks all pearl. Stacked seems like the right layout for this... Ideas on this one?

I'm no driller, but I don't think that even if it had the same drill that these would overlap...according to everythin I've seen the ZR40 is a TON stronger than an Energy...have you not downloaded and looked at the vid?  The zr40 is out-hooking the CM with a tamer drill, and the reaction chart shows this thing as a medium oil left to right skid/snap ball wheresas the Energy is shown as a ball you play striaght up between the 1 arrow with a hockey stick into the pocket.

I would think a stacked would be pretty hard to keep on the lanes with any decent amount of revs.


I could be wrong tho, and I certainly haven't thrown it...please feel free to slap me if I am wrong

No slapping req'd... I saw the vid... Not sure of the condition but it looks like a house shot to me... and doesn't really tell me a whole lot as most balls come back from the dry...

Thanks!
