Desperado and Epicenter
« on: June 10, 2009, 09:43:58 AM »
I've been given the task of teasing the audience by the "Master Teaser"(Ryan)
the information at this time is limited, basically he's giving me enough rope to hang myself with. The pics you are seeing are the colors of the coming releases, the core numbers are medium rg with a medium rg diff,and a med inter. diff no numbers to be released at this time, as this could change before they actually go into production. The proposed release date is still unavailable hoping for mid July, due to plant production scheduling. As you know there are several other balls coming out being made in S.A. this will effect the timing of all releases, enouf said here are the pics!!!!!

We have been tweaking the cover a little in the run up to putting it into full production, changing the chemical makup a little from standard urethane to illiminate the early friction it would otherwise have.

The Desperado has been designed for shorter patterns rather than drier patterns, however the changes we are making to the coverstock will mean it is THE ball for all shorter and drier conditions...

Took a vew videos while bowling tonight... struck 16 out of my first 19 shots.  Here are a few of them!

The condition was "medium" is best I could describe..  I threw a few shots with the Solaris during practice and a few didn't quite get back... we had no opposition tonight so fancied throwing a few of our test balls!

strong pearl, drilled similar to the Solaris I had. has more length than the Solaris with a strong hook on the back. Ball was very stable rolling, never had a squirt do to any transition, ball continued to move without fail through the entire night, just a heads up guys, the ball is better looking than the stock pics that have been posted, the dark blue the pics show is actually a med to dark purple, looks far better in person than the pic indicate !!! Only have 3 games on it will do it again this week to get a better read.

I agree on Tekneek's evaluation of the ball.

Strong pearl with much more angle then the solaris.

I will put up a video and pic as soon as possible for you guys.
