I emailed Betsy this morning over at Visionary, she said the Immortal Black pearl was released last Friday, so I ordered one up, should have it next week, I will let you guys know how it goes.
She gave me a little info on the ball, take particulair attention to the Flare potential:
It is a Reactive designed for Medium lanes.
Lowest RG 2.31", Differential .078", Flare Potential 6-9".
The factory finish is 1500 polish.
-
rg cannot be that low by usbc rules probably 2.51
-
I believe that this is one of the last balls that falls under the grandfather ruling of the USBC.

Yeah, it would have to be... I think the max differential is now set to 0.058? It may be worth stocking up on a few of these as I doubt we will see core dynamics to match this anytime in the near future...

He's talking about just the rg, not the rg differential. Before the whole grandfathering thing, a ball couldn't have an rg of 2.31 and be legal.

I would like to tell you the cost of the ball and I am sure it is not top secret classified information, but as a Visionary test staff member I am bound by the agreement not to disclose the cost. As a test staff member I receive balls at 50% off suggested retail. The cost test staff pay is the same as the Frankie May, if you are a test staff member and have a price list it is the same as the Frankie May which I believe is there most expensive ball. so they are pricing it a little above the other AMB balls. Sorry to be so vague
-
Yeah, that's a typo - should be lowest RG 2.51 according to the printed Visionary flyer, although the email they sent said it was 2.50
