Title: Legion Solid
Post by: AlonzoHarris on December 09, 2016, 11:45:32 AM

Seems like this ball is being used quite a bit at tournaments by staffers. Does this have IQ Tour Solid potential in terms of being "that" ball for Track like the IQ solid became "that" ball for Storm.

"That" = super predictable tournament Swiss Army knife.

Yes, for sure, although its stronger than that ball mentioned

I've thrown both the IQ Tour Solid and the Legion Solid, both with similar layouts.  I would say the Legion Solid definitely has that potential, but that is just my opinion.  I've found it to be a stronger earlier IQ Tour Solid.

What about in comparison to the GB2?

I think Track's intent was for the TourSic to be their version of the IQ Tour. I found the TourSic to be longer and slightly more angular downlane than the IQ Tour, which makes sense given the TourSic's higher RG. I also found it to be less forgiving of operator error. In any case, while I'm not sure that Track intended the Legion Solid to be their IQ Tour-type ball, it certainly seems to be filling that role.

I have several GB2
I have my Legion solid with same layout as 1 of my GB2
pin in middle finger which is 5" pin-pap
the Legion is longer, and very predictable, definitely stronger
Mitch Beasley recommended it before NATS last year and he did mention it again last week as a go to piece for 1 of the patterns where he made the cut
Both are solids
both are 2000 from factory
gb2 is symmetrical
Legion is asymmetrical
