Nomad Solid vs T road solid
« on: August 05, 2009, 01:13:08 AM »
Has anyone thrown both the Nomad and the T road solid and if so how do they compare? I am just looking for a general comparison to give me an idea of where the Nomad might fit into my arsenal. Thanks!

The nomad solid is clean through the fronts compared to a box finish troad solid. its just as smooth but has more energy in the backend and off the dry.

That is great news!! I had problems with weak 10s as the lanes dried up because of my rev rate the ball just burned up all its energy if the Nomad has a similar reaction and better energy retention then I will be sure to add it to my arsenal and take the surface down on my T-Road to combat the heavier oil.

I have a T Road Solid and a Nomad Solid. I have thrown both OOB.


The Nomad is much cleaner thru the fronts and retains a lot of energy on the back. It has a very angular attack and is of a skid/snap nature. I put a simple label leverage drill on it, since I knew the cover was very strong.

The T road is a bit stronger, coverstock-wise and can handle med/hvy to heavy oil. Because of the pin under drilling I have on it, it is much earlier, with a strong continuous arc. Both are great weapons.
