Title: Scandal vs Alpha Crux
Post by: offthesheet on March 31, 2016, 11:58:00 AM

How do these two balls compare and what do you all think of them, would you recommend one over the other?

Obviously, core numbers are about the same, and both use solid coverstocks. However, the Crux uses an asymmetrical core vs. the symmetrical core of the Scandal. Also, the Scandal uses 500/2000 instead of Storm's straight 2000 on the Alpha Crux. My guess is that both will chew through oil fairly effectively, but I would expect the Scandal to be a touch earlier and smoother compared to the Alpha.

Does the alpha have some kind of additives in their covers ?

I'm HEARING better things about the scandal...more so than the alpha.

I'm SEEING better results with the alpha.

I'd still take a new cell over the both of em.

I'm hearing a ton of great things about both. Main difference is in motion from core types.
