Snap Lock, Vintage DZ comparison
« on: October 28, 2016, 07:41:54 PM »
For anyone who has thrown or owns both balls, how do they compare in your opinion? Is the Snap Lock a decent ball up or down from the Vintage DZ at their respective oob surfaces.

Thanks!

The Snap Lock is definitely a step up. The Danger Zone does need some friction down lane to show it's true power. I like it on fresh mediums or when there's a very pronounced backend or bounce to the right. The Snap Lock makes a hard turn off the spot on just about anything except a heavier pattern. It's great when the lanes are tighter or you're trying to create a big downlane move while standing inside. The Snap Lock is about a 6-7 boards move left off of a Danger Zone for me.

Both layouts are pin under ring no hole. MB on the Snap Lock for me is @ 55 deg.

Thanks for the clarification. I have the pin above the ring with the cg kicked out on my Danger Zone no extra hole, and have the pin above the bridge with MB just to the left of my thumb no extra hole. I'm a lefty.
