A ball closer to the Virtual Gravity Nano
« on: November 03, 2016, 12:11:26 PM »
Looking for a ball to replace the Virtual Gravity Nano and having an argument over which would be closer the Lock or the Alpha Crux with a surface change. Thoughts?

Box condition lock would be closer to vg based on my recollection.  I have thrown all 3.

with similar layouts, my lock has been pretty close to my Virtual Gravity.  I left my Lock at OOB, and I think if I took it to 2000 (which was the finish grit of my VG) it would probably be even closer to the VG in terms of reaction.

The Dream Big might be a better choice, as you would be replacing a solid with a solid

Dream Big before either the Lock or Alpha in terms of the VG Nano.

I'd lean towards the Dream Big from 900 Global in all honesty.  That ball definitely seems to have more of the VG reaction which is to go a bit longer but still be a little more angular for a solid.  Other solid cover balls such as the No Rules and the Alpha Crux tend to read more in the midlane and be a bit smoother overall in the reaction.

My Alpha Crux is much cleaner thru the mids and stores energy better than the old VG Nano.  I can see why some people liked the Nano, but it definitely didn't strore energy better than the Alpha Crux unless you have a lot of ball speed.

Yea, probably could. But at $175 I make a nice profit on them. I don't want to be "The Donald" LOL
