I really hate the quality of the video. It's resolution when I edited it with my program was incredible compared to youtube's. I will be uploading it on my server, so we can get a better, clearer picture.

One shot only though, I was using an Ebonite NVS the rest of the games. Just thought I'd show some folks that this ball actually did make a move.

Thanks again. And yeah, the video is all squeezed together, and makes me look short and fat, when really I am 6'3 and 190 lbs. hahaha

I blew apart a Shark pattern earlier this week with this ball.  I was able to play nearly four games into a block before the ball got too strong and I finished up with a Mystic.  I've got a little more axis tilt on my ball so I was able to play a little more belly than what you've shown on the video.  On a THS, the ball moves nearly as much as any solid reactive/particle ball I've thrown.  It's not a hook machine.  Merely a smooth, arcing motion.  I've yet to tinker with the coverstock.  I'm inclined to believe that if I took this down to 800-1000 grit with some polish, it would really snap on the backends of a THS.

I have actually taken mine down to 500. The ball is amazing on the backends. During this video, it was carry down central, and not a whole lot of movement with the lanes. Alot of burning up was common between all the balls I threw. The Secret Agent by far gave me the best read during that time.
