New Shape/Motion missing?
« on: February 21, 2017, 10:57:39 AM »
I'm considering selling my Primal Fear. I've found little real utility for it considering what the balls above and below it cover.

My question is this..looking over my line-up does anyone see a motion or shape that i'm missing. I do not want something above the BW Red Legend Solid as that is already pushing the boundaries in strength.

BW Red Legend Solid
Code Black
Primal Fear - Possibly Out
Rocket Ship
Hy-Road Pearl
Ride
Hammer Black Urethane

I thought about a Wreck-Em between HRP and Ride and/or an Inception Pearl (pin down + touch of surface) between Code Black and BWRLS. I like having different looks to go to and the Fear just isn't quite doing it.

I think what you have can cover just about anything.

HyRoad Pearl, Rocket Ship, and Code Black will cover pretty much all medium conditions for you. Red Legend Solid for when you see more oil and then your Ride and urethane for less

I'll be honest, I have not seen a BWRLS but from what I've read on it, it reads early.  Why not a strong symmetrical solid like the Phaze II with more punch on the back end between the BWRLS and the Code Black?  I'm liking my Phaze II-Code Black-HyRoad sequencing for transitions...

I find it interesting that you have the Rocket Ship below the Code Black - what surface and layout are on both?

That's kind of where I'm at with it. If the Fear goes, I was going to take that opportunity to buy something else for the trill of a new ball lol.

Not sure on actual numbers for the layouts but Code Black is pin just a little above ring finger and MB a half inch right of thumb. Rocket Ship is pin in ring. PAP is 5" over  1/2" up. Both at OOB surfaces. I think its the recovery of that Code core that lead me to place them like that.

I'm now strongly considering the Dare Devil Trick. I wonder what layout would make sense on it though? Something to put it between the pin in ring benchmark reaction RocketShip and pin down p3 hole BWRLS.

Other than being a fairly strong symmetrical solid, I'm not 100% sure what the DDT is going to be yet as I have only seen BJ Moore's RotoGrip video for it.  The RotoGrip comparison tool shows it having a little more back end punch than the Haywire though.  Theoretically speaking, it should slot between the BWRLS and the Rocket Ship.
