Funny thing about that. I actually had to quit because my whole team vanished and didn't bother telling me. So I wouldn't expect to see me.up there. :(

But next year, I already have 1 guy committed.

Bummer man, Jackal Ghost, Forge Fire, Venom Shock and Supra will give you 4 vastly different shapes for starters

Thrill

Sport patterns:

Alpha Jackal
Forge
Ripcord

Covert or Blitz

I've put together a full bag, and I think it looks pretty good.

Ghost
Scorn
Fire
Assassin
Blitz
Shock
Supra
Hydra

Might consider an og Villain too.

Honestly, I want to see how that core rolls before going Alpha

Villian is a great ball, shot couple of 300's and a 810 with it.

Both Forge balls are really, really good. They need oil obviously but that core creates a great ball-motion.

Recoil doesn't get a lot of love so far but I like it significantly more than I do my Shock.  Great comfort benchmark ball with a little more pop down lane and can handle more oil.  Heard Rogue Assassin is almost Phaze 2 good as a stronger benchmark.  Golden Jackal looks like it would be a house shot killer.

(edit:  Milo did say didn't see enough separation between Supra and Hydra to need a spot for both IIRC)

Sorry to hear this, Doom. Their Facebook page has been littered with these kinds of announcements today. Best wishes with the new gear!

Sorry Doom, it's an honor to have such a deal even if it was short lived.
Many of us will never get such an opportunity.
You repped the brand well, my dude.

so i got myself a Tank Blitz, one of my buddies here is a motiv rep.  talked me into it.

Well, the first day i had it, i got myself into this crazy funk where i was out of rhythm and i ended up going into a 3 week slump.  first 3 weeks of league with the new ball and i couldn't throw consistently so i never saw a good reaction.

Well we took a few weeks off due to our league is on a navy base and with everything in Iran, the base security increased and a lot of guest passes were revoked so we took a couple weeks off to remedy the situation.  I started off in the same funk, switched balls to get a different look, really reset myself and got back on track.  Decided that since i was throwing consistently, to switch back to the blitz and really see the reaction.  Loved it.  finished the last game throwing the last 5 strikes.  ball rolls amazing.

it doesn't seem very urethany to me, at least for a house shot.  Just seemed like a s stronger symmetrical solid
