Who has the Roto Grip Wrecker?
« on: January 16, 2013, 08:37:46 PM »
Ordered one today...

Logically should be a step down from the crossroad right?

Who has one...and how do u like it?

I haven't thrown the Wrecker, but the Rising Star is definitely going to be earlier in the mids whereas the Wrecker is cleaner and will go longer before making the turn. 

When I had the Rising Star, I was really surprised on the fact that I could actually use that ball on many medium patterns instead of the medium-light since the cover ended up being stronger than advertised.  On medium-light, I noticed that the Rising Star would jump quickly when it hit friction, so that was a case of move left and wheel it.  That was a good cover/core combo to say the least.

I disagree.  the Wrecker has higher flare potential not to mention a stronger hybrid cover than the rising star.  Having both, the wrecker is stronger midlane and has a more defined move off the friction than the rising star.

Do should I drill my hy-road like my wrecker? I want a benchmark roll from the hy-road and my wrecker is drilled to have a high flare and backend continuation. And what should I do with my critical theory?

I think having the two drilled very similar is a great idea.  It was exaclty what I did. The wrecker gets down the lane quite a bit further with more backend..and crissroad ended up being very true and benchmark-y reaction...they compliment each other very well,  youll love it

Anyone have a comparison between the Wrecker and IQ Tour Pearl?

I asked a guy about this that has the Rising Star and IQ tour Pearl yesterday.  I'm assuming the RS and Wrecker should be pretty close.  He said the RS has more length and is a bit sharper off the corner.  I forgot to ask him if they were drilled the same though.
