TOXIC...
« on: November 22, 2006, 12:21:29 PM »
So just to be clear before I buy one, IS IT OR IS IT NOT PARTICLE? The decriptions say it's pearl reactive, but every other thing I read on this site has people saying it's pearl particle... Which is it? I really have no need for a pearl particle with my Total Inferno being so strong, so reactive would be the ticket for me, and I would'nt be too happy if I bought it and it was in fact particle...
Thanks

key words being "new traction pearl"leads me to beleive it's a pearl particle.

I was told by Brian Graham, it is NOT particle. It is max flip reactive with a pearl additive.

I also have 2 of the Toxic's sitting right here in front of me and the box says  PEARL REACTIVE.. NO mention of particle..

On a side note, very attractive ball. Green with silver swirls. For sure different looking and I like that..

It probably has a small amount of particle in it but is so small that it can't be considered particle.  Don't quote me on this.  I'm just guessing.

If there is no particle, how(other than the core) is it different than the doom?

I have read a couple of early reviews of the ball and its sooner and seems stronger than the Doom. Its not the same core as the Doom and its not the same cover. It is reactive pearl with a pearl additive.. What exactly does that mean, not really sure..

Well, that doesn't make sense, considering to make a ball pearl..you have to give it an additive to do so. Sounds like marketing double talk. I really wish companies(not only hammer) would be more specific about the type of coverstock. Track is notorious for saying something is just reactive, finding out it is pearl w/o a mention to it.

I've read the opposite,it's longer then the pain but not the doom.I agree,I wish hammer would be more specific on their cover descriptions,how else can we make a decision.

here is one of the short reviews I read:

Toxic is clean up front, it was a bit sooner than the Doom drilled the same.
The midlane read was much better and a stronger backend. The ball fills a gap in the Raw series..
