Golumbia 300's Action

Lynda is somehow connected to C300. I drilled a Throttle UP for her during the WWC2005. She didn't throw an Epic nor did she win any gold medals in that event.

... Does anyone know what she was throwing?  I know its not the arrow, etc, but am curious to know.. I elieve she won 4 Gold Medals in the Womens World Championships throwing the Epic, so wonder is she stuck with RG for the WC too ...


She was throwing a Triple X and a Diablo.  As mention earlier, she did not win any gold in the last World Championship - 2 silver and 2 bronze.

The following is information from www.bowlingdigital.com  Unfortunately I can't get you the the exact webpage.  This is after Lynda shot a second block of 1453 (6 games).

"When you watch performances like that it's just fun", said Team USA head coach Jeri Edwards. "It was a great squad to watch. Lynda did not only score great, she also bowled beautifully today."

"I tacked the lanes differently today and used different balls (Triple X, Diablo). In the fourth game, I just didn't make my adjustments fast enough", said Lynda (pictured). "However, I don't need to peak today, there are still a lot games to go."

The answers here are very confusing...several events...several lists of balls?

Whose right?  Whose wrong?  What event?

Very unclear.

I've been throwing the Storm Action myself alot except when I throw the Columbia Diablo...in the 2001 world championship...last year!  Get it?

Here are some claims made by Columbia for this years 2005 event.

Wait till they find out they were wrong and she is using Storm stuff.

I stand corrected. She did in fact throw an Epic during the World Championships. The reason why I said she didn't use the Epic was because her and Shannon's balls were lost by the airline and they needed some replacement balls. Lynda said she had to get Columbia balls and I just assumed she was on staff since she didn't want any other brand that I actually had in the shop.

It looks like she is using different balls on different squads. Different companies also.
