Review: Cruel C 51 L.E. (BLK/RD)
« on: April 25, 2011, 03:49:47 AM »
since the site doesn't have this ball up for review I'm posting it here in the "Motiv" forum.
 
BALL SPECS

Pin Length: 3.5"

Starting Top Weight: 3.5 oz.

Ball Weight: 16 lbs, 3 oz.
 
*Please note: my review is for the Motiv Cruel C 51 L.E. (black/red) 

 
DRILL PATTERN

Pin to PAP: 5"

MB to PAP: 4.5"

X Hole (if there is one): NONE
 
*60 x 5 x 40
 

BOWLER STYLE

Rev Rate: 350 RPM

Ball Speed: 19 MPH
 
PAP/Track: 3 3/8 over, 5/8 up

 
SURFACE PREP

Grit: 1000

Type: (Matte, Polish, Sanded): matte
 

LANE CONDITION

Length: 41 feet
 
Volume: medium to high

Type (THS, Sport Pattern etc): THS, and Kegel Middle of The Road

 
BALL REACTION

Length:  clean through the fronts w/ aggressive midlane read

Back End: strong continuous arc
 
Overall  Hook: high, covers the same amount (if not more) of boards as the TR2  which comes from the factory at 800 grit wet sand.

Midlane Read: very strong and noticeable. it's difficult to throw this ball through the breakpoint.

Breakpoint  Shape: strong arc. not a flipper, but very good continuation and allows  the bowler to play the backend of the lane more.

 
COMMENTS

Likes:  Strong core/cover combo that allows one to move deeper on the lane and  swing/belly the ball more. good for heavier/longer conditions. very  aggressive bowling ball.

Dislikes:  on anything less than medium I strongly suggest keeping this ball in  the bag. the strong core/cover combo doesn't favor shorter, drier lane  conditions.
