Great video. I am also appreciating the knowledgeable, easy to understand commentary. You have the gift of explaining complicated information into concepts that even a dumbbell like me can understand.
Another awesome video Mikey! Had a rough night at league but was super pumped to see I had something to look forward to when I got home :) Keep it goin' brotha!
I will! Episode 10 has a lot of release slowmos showing my release while using different starting hand positions, and episode 9 shows the motion differences. Thanks for the suggestion! A video talking about just the release is in order...
Thanks brother! I shoot on a Sony FS5 mark ii Cinema Camera, and I use a Sony 18-105 mm constant aperture f4 G OSS lens with internal zoom. I want to get some sharper cinema glass... but havent invested anymore yet, as the 18-105 can do everything and was not cheap... lol
@@BowlingScience Whoa! Nice set up! I am an amateur photographer and appreciate high quality like you are doing. Keep it up. I know Mo is not a big fan of urethane, but there is a urethane craze right now that is not going away, would love to see an all urethane ball study by you. Purple Hammer vs. the World. ;)
I understand surface makes it less violent off the spot. I also think you need a decent rev rate for this strategy because surface burns energy. A low rev player will run out of gas and hit like a turd.
I'm a lower speed (12 at pins) bowler and probably Rev Dominant. With that said would you agree I probably need to have less surface (500, 1000)? Thank you! Note: Mostly house shot, 45 feet, medium oil.
This particular video was on the Johnny Petraglia sport pattern. Episode 11 shows surface on a house shot, if you havent seen it yet! Thank for watching!
I would like to see how a pattern breaks down differently with different grits. For example, how often would you need to move, and would you be able to use the same ball for a 3 game set? I have difficulty moving quick enough and/or not balling down fast enough when the heads go at my house, so I end up with terrible series.
How far was your pin to your pap? This is side roll or is that term only for an asymmetrical balls? I’m struggling on a 33’ pattern in league right now. I’ve been using 5” pins balls. One with surface (val @ 40 degrees) and one polished ( val @ 25 degrees). It still jumps too hard on the backend. Thinking getting another symmetrical ball with 1 1/2” pin to pap or a 6” pin to pap.
I highly recommend an asymm at 90 x 1.5 x 45, and/or a symm 90 x 1.5 x 45... that's the layout used in this video is a symmetrical... my assym is less angular even, video coming soon. Thanks for the support!
Nice video. I'm currently having issues with my polished short pin asymmetrical ball (Parallax Effect). Every time I play that line you were playing in the video, the ball seems to react a lot when it encounters friction. Would you recommend that I add surface to it? And what surface would be good for a short pin layout ball playing that line?
@@BowlingScience I would need to ask the PSO who drilled my ball for that info. What I know is that he mentioned it being a 2 inches short pin layout. I had the surface at 2000 grit during my league this past Sunday, but it was hooking a lot in the strike zone I was playing (in between first and second arrow).
I think touching it up with a gray pad before play would do that, yes. The rougher grits beyond that will give you more hook, but smoother and earlier.
I’ve learned more about bowling in 13 episodes than I have in many many years, another great presentation
Well...when your name ends in Pinel!!!! Dude probably knows more than anyone NOT named pinel!
I really enjoyed that video. Great information!
That was a high quality video! Thank you! I wasn't ready for the overlay shots. I was like 'whoa, this stuff just kicked in'.
Great video. I am also appreciating the knowledgeable, easy to understand commentary. You have the gift of explaining complicated information into concepts that even a dumbbell like me can understand.
You should add some amazon affiliate links for the pads so you can make a couple extra bucks!
Great job! Can't wait to see this on a long flat pattern.
You wont have to wait long 😉
Another awesome video Mikey! Had a rough night at league but was super pumped to see I had something to look forward to when I got home :) Keep it goin' brotha!
Great tip on surface on short patterns... can’t wait to use them pads! Liking your vlogs!
I love your praying mantis style of Finish at the line. Very pleasing to watch
Awesome info! I have family in Chesapeake (I live in Farmville 65 miles west of Richmond) and want to come see yall next time I visit them.
Definitely helped me with this one
Another amazing video Mikey Pinel, you and your dad need to collaborate on a Video.
I thought the green pads were for doing dishes..........Mo Pinel......haha
Great video.
love these episodes!!
Thanks! We are doing updates if some of these classic episodes soon!
Keep up the great work man! I love the content!
Love the videos.
Great job my friend 👌🏿
Could you use this layout to blend wet dry (cliff) with surface on the ball also?
Do you have a link for the Scotchbrite pads?
Hey Mikey! Can you do a video of how to perform the modern release and the science behind it?
I will! Episode 10 has a lot of release slowmos showing my release while using different starting hand positions, and episode 9 shows the motion differences. Thanks for the suggestion! A video talking about just the release is in order...
I love your videography and slow motion. Excellent, really helps us see what the ball is doing. What camera and lens do you use?

I would have never thought of putting anything less than 1000 on a ball for a house shot. It looks like this is something I need to look into trying.

Nice!!!!
People thought I was crazy using surface on pearl asymmetrical bowling balls on short patterns but it’s really effective than shiny balls

Bowling Science what about cover Mr Pinel? If I get a squash solid and use that layout could I sand the polish then sand the surface at 4000?
Do you recommend the ball you were using for a beginner
I usually drill a symmetrical as a first ball for beginners... Squatch Hybrid is strong, but still fits the bill.
Bowling Science thanks for the advice

We usually recommend surface on a short pin. Our lane patterns could be different as well. What’s the layout on the parallax?
I start at 1000 usually for most of my stuff

Approximately how long do you sand for?
Maybe 15-30 seconds... you want to cover the whole ball evenly. Start with moderate pressure. You can sand it harder if you need more surface.
Where do you get those bands for sanding your balls? I want to get some
I will have some next week. Hit me on FB messenger the name is Mikey Pinel
757..va beach/hampton Rhodes?? My Alma mater is ODU.
Can I do this to an idol pearl to get it to come off the spot with more snap?
I think touching it up with a gray pad before play would do that, yes. The rougher grits beyond that will give you more hook, but smoother and earlier.
Should I just throw urethane 🤔
Hi hello ~can you help me?
How can I help?
Hi ~@@BowlingScience ^~^can you give me a drilling layout ?oil track runs thru my thumb hole .i hope your the answer to my problem
