« on: June 18, 2013, 11:18:20 AM »
Heya Gang... Here are the details of the new Hammer Amp, Absolut Curve, & Spike due to be released in the next few months - Videos on these balls will be up later today. Enjoy... Let me know your thoughts on these new products!


Here are actual pics of these new beauties....



AMP Features:
Power up your game with the new Hammer Amp! The Amp features our new PowerShot asymmetric core, designed to provide ultra-high mid-lane revolutions with a very defined breakpoint. Combine that with our new Overdrive Hybrid coverstock, and you’ve got one of the strongest rolling upper-mid price balls in the history of Hammer. The Amp is finished with Powerhouse® Clean n’ Sheen to give this ball a smooth looking matte finish.

Amp Specs (15 lbs):
RG 2.49
Differential .054
Mass Bias .013
Surface Finishing Process - 2 Stage Sanding Process
500 Abralon®, 1000 Abralon®, with Powerhouse® Clean n’ Sheen
RELEASE DATE: August 13th

Absolut Curve Features:
Tough look? Check. Aggressive Roll? Check. Devas-tating backend reaction? You bet. Absolut Curve has everything that Hammer bowlers want. With the combination of the new FatMax core shape and our H-150 Crosscover Reactive shell, the Absolut Curve gives Ham-mer bowlers the most angular mid-price ball from the Hammer line in years. Combine that with a tough looking black, orange, and yellow combination and you’ve got one unbelievable product.

Spike Features:
Hammer’s got a new way to attack the pin deck with the new Hammer Spike. The Spike uses a high RG, high Differential core system that gives Hammer bowlers a new look at conquering drier lanes. Combining this core with the Taboo Jet Black’s coverstock (GTRIII) in a hybrid version gives the Spike a long move through the front of the lane, with a controlled but aggressive down-lane move. Take control of your game on drier lanes and pound the pocket with the new Hammer Spike!

Hammer and Track have been my fav of the EBI four. Im sure the new releases are good but the logos and names seem a little off par from what Hammer has been doing the past few years.

I agree but so are marvel-s, hyroad pearl,  and totally defiant.  All of them sound over seas..
In the bag [Infinite Physix, Volatility Torque, Night Road, Phaze III, Burner Solid, Hustle AU]
*Now Testing* IQ Ruby, Renevant, another IQ Tour solid
Coming soon...???

Does anyone know if the absolut curve is a solid? Was planning on getting the columbia disruption but if this ball is a solid i will totally be getting this ball instead.
