Tamer already has a review of it up on Youtube. Looks good. If it weren't for the little bit of control you get (they mention this), I may just forget about getting anything Rip'D. But I can make up for that control with a Web Tour, and bring in BWBG for a hybrid.

I'll leave it to them to post their review.

Too many choices to get lost in the confusion. What is the need for all the Hook Monsters? I get it, Chicks Dig It.

Is it just me or are these basically just a Choice and Choice Pearl?? I don't see much of a difference.

There is plenty of difference IMO
Do not have the Choice or Statement solid, but have both pearls.
The choice pearl is stronger than I thought it would be and definitely a step down from the Statement Pearl - IMO anyways

This is from a 43' - 30 ul pattern that has a few games on it (all in the 8-12 board area) at this point and its a very high friction surface

Choice Pearl   https://youtu.be/terFF6g3iKI
Statement Pearl  https://youtu.be/Nkf5U2I0dx4

I threw a ton more shots where I was able to move in deeper with the SP and it just kept on coming downlane.
The Choice pearl would skid to far to recover.
I had to stay further out and fairly soft to get the CP to read properly


Again - just my .02 worth

Man, I'd really like to see JR do more/keep doing reviews.

Statement Pearl looks mighty nice.

Whoa.

He made the pearl, especially pin up, look dirty. It's crazy what that ball can do. Definitely getting both based off this video, but I agree. I'd love to see him do more of this. JR and Tamer have to be the most in-depth and detailed reviews I have seen.
