Title: GP2 Vids
Post by: BackToBasics on February 23, 2005, 01:16:04 PM
I figured I'd start something new and post some videos of my GP2  The first one I had is a little conditional so I wanted something I could possibly use more often.  This one is a little cleaner through the fronts.  Great read.

NOT FAIR!!  Simply NOT FAIR!!...one single person shouldn't be allowed to have that much game...  Something's wrong, I gotta ask Del cause "MY" GP2 doesn't rev like that..lol

And THAT'S why he's Mr. Team USA gentlemen...nice vids Mr. Chapman, but I noticed you didn't "fit" yourself into the vids...

DP3:  Nah, I immediately put it in the haus machine LOL!  Believe it or not, the gutters were very tappered.  I had a hard time getting the Slash and FAZ to turn the corner.  When will I see you guys again?

Rick:  LOL!  If I were to "fit" into the video, you would have never seen the ball!  

I never was able to achieve this recovery with the Animal.  For me, the Animal just wouldn't turn the corner and I never matched up to it.  The GP2 is a different animal and has incredible recovery but excellent midlane.

As a joke, I sent those videos to my Son in Florida. He was bragging about his bowling last night, so since you can't see the person bowling (only the ball) I sent them to him with the message of...."I just got a new Track Rule GP2 last week and love it. Here are videos of me throwing the ball. What do you think?"

I can't wait for his reply....lol

Brick: That's cruel, but funny as heck.

Chappy: I can still beat you with my Freak-A-Zoid... it's a strike machine on those second shifts as you know from last Travel League Match where I carried your butt!  I think that ball is highly underrated.  I've had great success with it!!!  But I still want that GP2!  I expect to have it by the end of the week!  OR ELSE!!!

Hey, Tenpinspro... before you get people furiously looking things up on the internet... I think Linda Norry was USA Champion that year.  

I was on the PUERTO RICAN National Team for about 15 years, which is how I met Chappy.  I was National Amateur Champion several times over the years but IN PUERTO RICO... BIG DIFF!!!  But thanks for confusing me with the best in the world... felt nice.

That is not to say that I can't beat Chappy or hold him up in league!  I beat on him this week AGAIN.  I figure, if I beat my idol (wiping the tear on my face) once in a while then I am not doing too badly.

I smack him in the head every day, at least once or twice, so you're covered.

AC,
There is aboslutely nothing wrong with letting your wife win once in a while!? My wife kicks my can every once in a while aswell, I just keep telling her and myself that I let her!! "YEah Right" Then ya get to hear about it for the whole next week, hopefully only 1 week !
But its just plain cool to feel that proud of yer other half! "I guess"

ps the vid's are cool Too!

Its just a game? Yeah Right! 2nd place is the 1st loser

Post by: BackToBasics on February 26, 2005, 09:29:25 PM
I guess she's not telling the whole story.....she's bowling one extra game!!!    It's part of that remedial program for bowlers.  That's OK. I'll hear it for the next few years.  "Hey, remember that time when you had the stomach virus, and one leg was broken and you had pink eye and I beat you?"

I was going to post vids of her but then I figured you've already seen 4 revs with Rick's balls!  LOL!

Just wanted to let you all know that Chappy won't be writing today.  He will be unable to use all his facilities for a while.  He is in the hospital because I BEAT HIM UP.  He will be back soon.  Maybe.  If he recovers in time.

For those of you who don't know, hector_15 is my favorite and most handsome cousin in Puerto Rico.  He is an awesome youth bowler and he's getting better every day.  Answer all his questions or I'll beat you all up.  I mean that!

PS. Hector!  Que bueno que estas en ball reviews... te quiero mucho y me haces mucha falta.  Cualquier cosa que quieras saber me avisas!!!  Besos, Tu Prima
