I do not see the Thrash as more angular that then Threat. Bowling on the same pair, I have a Thrash, a teammate of mine has a Threat. We bowl very similiar except I have about 2 mph more on the ball speed. My Thrash is very even rolling, devinately not a flip. His Threat is more skid snap. We have very similiar drillings, except he has his pin at 4 1/4 away from his pap, and I have mine set at just above 4. The Cgs are in identical positions.

They comment that the core gives allows the Thrash to read the lane sooner than the Threat with a smoother breakpoint.
---this is exactly what I see when we throw our's side by side. I can stay with the Thrash longer because of the more aggressive finish on it than the Threat. Also, in track's own works in their advertisements "stong arcing backend reaction"
