Can anyone give a comparison of these two balls? I'm trying to decide between the two and can't make up my mind. These balls seem to have the same type of ball reactions and I just wanted some opinions. Lane conditions don't really matter, I'll find a use for either, but mainly for medium synthetic lanes with some carrydown. I just wanted to know everyone's personal preferences.
Thanks!

No one really knows that much about the kinetic yet. From what I've heard though, its supposed to be really angular. Having thrown the Raid at a demo day I can generally say that it is quite long. It gets down the lane and reacts in a strong arcing motion on the backend. It is a ball that is predictable, yet it gets down the lane conserving so much energy that it should still carry quite well. A perfect one two punch for tougher shots would be the gamebreaker and raid. Their smooth reactions combined with varying lengths should cover a wide variety of conditions.

Hey adman,
The Kinetic can handle more oil compared to the Raid. Both very nice pieces but I see the Kinetic as a stronger oil ball plus a little more angular off the friction. Hope this helps some....
