the clips are nothing spectacular.. but they give an idea.. you can see im further left using the infinite. (about 6 to 7 boards.)

Infinite One - drilled with pin above bridge and bomb placed 1.5-2" right of thumb (parallel). I left it at 500 abralon (OOB) but I shined it up with ebonite factory finish.

This ball has bite on the back end. I was impressed with the continuous movement. I compared it to my One, I stood 7 boards left w/ the infinite. The layouts are not similar but to be able to cover that much more area was great. This ball was very clean through the front. (Fresh 6pm house shot)

SR300 - pin above ring finger, bomb 1-1.5" right of thumb (parallel) w/ 6 inch weighthole to make side weight 0. Polished with ebonite factory finish.

This ball was very smooth up front with an arc shape on the back(by drilling design). The ball revved up nicely in the midlane and had plenty of stored energy on the back. I was able to get further right with this ball as it set up nicely in the pocket.

Hmm, ebo-brother takes the movie spotlight from bruns-brother?  Interesting...  I wonder if we can expect a sibling duel?

Paulski,

Nice shot with the SR300. Looks like it def. clears the heads easily.
What were the lanes like that day?

I didn't get to see the Infinite clip, something weird happened with Media Player, I'll try again later.


P.S. When you polished with Ebonite Factory Polish, did you put a good amount of pressure on the ball or did you just get enough on it to add to the factory finish?

Thanks!
Ram

Maybe it's just the video, but it looks like you have a very controlled armswing.  Smooth, but very controlled.
