The Chalk
« on: February 17, 2009, 05:22:57 AM »
Hammer is releasing a new ball called The Chalk. It is reactive resin and is all white hence the name. Thats all the info I have at this time.

a guy had this ball at league last night...it's a pretty cool-looking ball.  It's all white and charcoal color and the lettering is white/silver.  I didn't see him throw it as he threw his virtual gravity all night but he said he's pretty excited about it.  From what he was saying it will probably be in between the widows and vibes, a big hole that hammer has needed to fill for a while...it's nice to see them come out with something other than what they claim will be the most hooking ball in this galaxy.

This is, in Hammer's words, an EXTREMELY limited edition ball only for TNBA members.

TNBA members can purchase them at a TNBA tournament, or through their members only program.

Brunswick did something similar last year in Paris with a very limited edition "Étoile" ball (PK18 pearl on Scorchin' Inferno core, nothing fancy) in Paris.
