Black Widow pearl pink. I may have to check this one out.

Video is listed in the other thread below. Pros have already shot lights out with it; O'Neill in particular, going 21 in a row.

This one is definitely worth it.

BL.

Brad, brad, Brad,

You can't buy a ball based on what O'Neill does with it. He could throw 21 in a row with a freaking brick!

The battle-proven Venom line has been given an update to combat the new rules governing drillings, and its name is Recoil. MOTIV has modified the Gear core to give even more drilling versatility to it in this upcoming age where weight holes are no longer allowed. What was once symmetrical has now become asymmetric, sporting similar RG and Differential values (2.47RG, .036Diff) but adding an Intermediate Differential of .013. This tweak gives the Recoil added power at the breakpoint, giving an increased entry angle towards the pocket where the original Gear boasts a smoother transition. Pairing the Gear APG with the new Coercion MFS Reactive (4000 LSS) gives the versatility and feel of a Venom Shock while providing a bit more downlane punch for today’s conditions. I laid mine out the same as my trusty Shock (which I drilled five years ago and still throw as often as possible on demanding conditions) to give me a feel for the difference, and I must say that I am stoked for this update. The overall hook and read through the mids is almost identical through the two balls, but the difference shines in the breakpoint. Where the Shock gives me a slower, heavier roll at the breakpoint the Recoil makes a quicker turn, giving it a greater ability to recover from deeper angles. I hit my Recoil with 2000 by hand out of the box expecting to need a little extra surface to get the ball going, and I was wrong. This piece is every bit a strong as the Shock, if not more so. I easily envision myself having matching Recoils and Shocks so that I can attack the lanes and transitions seamlessly between needing pure control and quicker recovery. Versatility is also a key factor in this ball in that I can drill and prep one to attack heavier volumes and another one to go longer and respond better on the burn. The Venom Recoil should be a staple of any arsenal for the modern rules/game.

Ive already told my PSO to order a case of each Solid and Purple Pearl to stash away so when they do get disc'd he can have some.

Considering scores are popping in singles, I'm assuming guys are starting around 7-10 with a ton of surface and hopping inside around game 3. A friend of mine said he had an Awesome look like singles with Quantum Bias after throwing a Ludicrous Solid the first 2 games at 500 grit.
