Just saw the exception and slash tonight. My pro shop guy who is on the track staff got his in today. The exception has the same core as the rule but a pearl coverstock. The slash was just a dull blueish colored ball..

If they only made a ball that would carry that da_n 7 pin (and I am right handed!!)

Hey

Rule GP 2 and Arsenal are 2005 balls.
They are both Dull(Rule part, Arsenal Reac.)
The arsenal is from the Freak line.

X- ception is a reaktive pearl Rule
and the Slash is new in the "Crash" line.
Its dull reaktive with symm. core

That´s all the info he had

The artist formerly known as: Sir track a lot of denmark.

The other day, my I saw an xception in action.  It looked like it had a real hocky stick effect.  booming backend.

To clear up the questions, Slash uses Power Plus EX. It is solid (non-pearlized).  Sanded dark blue with Yellow and Red logos.  Yes, Triton Elite fans will be very happy!

Xception is indeed pearlized, but another Goo coverstock, Goo LS (long/strong).  It goes further than Goo, not as far as Power Plus.  It is whippier than Goo, not as whippy as Power Plus.  Del and the R&D team outdid themselves again!  Very strong change of direction but not spooky in the midlane like most pearlized, angular balls.  

Sorry, but I can't leak the info on the GP2 and Arsenal balls.  But both lines have coverstocks that are different from each other and different than any previous Track bowling balls.  

We will begin shipping to distributors Monday, October 25.  We are very excited about this two ball launch.  The Slash is at a value price point for the great performance.  Will be the same as Crash/Crunch Time price.  

Thanks for the inquiry.
