Is that stateside?
-
I was told no by a Track staffer.
-
Too bad. I love my Paradox, but only after taking it to 4000 and applying polish on top.

Coming after the first of the year in the U.S.
Track staffer is probably keeping it under wraps.

Said staffer was told 'NO" by his rep. I'm good friends with multiple EBI staffers (2 Track, 1 Columbia). They have all said the same thing. So I guess they are ALL being kept out of the loop. They all also have the same rep. I'm just the messenger on this.

Blockbuster Bowling seems to think there is a Paradox Pearl coming. http://www.ballreviews.com/ebonite/new-ebonite-ball-at-wsob-t309870.0.html;msg2542755;topicseen#new Post #5...."The GB2 MVP ball is one of 6 new balls coming from the Ebonite Brand along with a Paradox Pearl and a new Widow after the first of the year.
The MVP is more angular on the backend versus the GB2 Gold which was smoother and better on flatter patterns."

I'm just passing on what I'm told. I'm not at all saying that he's wrong. Just that a rep is keeping quite to my sources. He may have a rep telling him or his sources different.
-
Something will be announced a week from today
-
J. R. is using one in Reno right now.
-
Kamron Doyle was also using it along with the original Paradox

Look at how close the reaction is to the original tho? I shined my original already so can't see needing the Pearl.
Sure layouts can separate them but I'm shocked the 2 balls are so close together reaction wise.

That was one of my first thoughts also. Maybe 2 boards max.

Seems like the Crux and Crux Pearl difference.

I am guessing you won't see a large difference unless you are bowling on a pretty flat pattern or on something pretty dry upfront.

When you shined it did you change the surface? If you didn't have either ball, would you buy the solid or the pearl?
Thanks.

New listing/review for this on BTM.

I had touched it with 2000 by hand then applied a non grit polish to it. Its hard to say which 1 I'd go with given the choice because I'm not sure there's much of a difference between them and the original polished is great so I'm happy with it.

Took my original to 4000 then shined it. Looks like a pearl, acts like a pearl, and I cant imagine anything better. Carry on one house shot where I normally struggle has been phenomenal. I also had a pretty good look with it on a fresh 50 foot Don Carter pattern, but I played the transitions wrong
-
Got one in. Gonna punch it for one of my guys next week.
-
He wanted the Heat instead. Down the lane and left with a weak drilling.
