This is actionable information. These are the characteristics I look for in a versatile, durable ball. The most usable balls have slow transition from lane shine, and they maintain their general motion even after they lane shine. I have enough bowling balls, and even some like this one (Track Stealth), but this ball looks like a winner. And as I've posted before, I am particularly drawn to the balls that come OOB at 4000 (those balls that roll their best from 4000 to 5000). Maintenance on those surfaces is the easiest. Just let them lane shine, and keep them clean, with occasional surface touch-up. Motiv has about 5 from 4K to 5K sanded. Storm (SPI) has at least 3 (Absolute Power, IQ Tour solid, Xponent).
Great job on this video. The fact that you took the time to not only change the surface but explained that the surface will change for anyone that doesn’t maintain there ball and to see what you can expect. Again great job
Excellent review and the in depth of surface changes are probably the most beneficial of any review videos on the market. Keep going and bring more as this one. Thanks for the insight
Hi Ron. An off the wall Ebonite question. Do you know what the core is on an old Ebonite Riptide from the mid to late 90’s? Getting back into the game and I used a Riptide back then.
Thanks Ron. GB5 looks like $$$ 💪 Question. Do you guys sell tape for the wrists and arms? I see folks like EJ with the tape on the wrist and I wonder if that would be good to use for longer format tournaments. If a video could be made on how that tape would be used, I am sure folks would tune in.
The best one is KT tape pro, at least in terms of sticking and holding up. The stuff bowling companies sell isn't as good That being said, there's no evidence that it actually does anything. I've tried it for wrist pain and it didn't do anything
Hi Ron! When you changed surface on the GB5 from 1000 to 4500 (as demonstrated by the CTD Scanner) which CTD pad(s) did you use and for how long (or how many passes) to get that 4500 final grit surface on the GB5?

You my purple BAM pad last night it’s hands down so much better than any leather or towel I’ve ever used
Thanks for the compliment, we really like that product.
Really loved this video! Was great and useful to see the ball at 3 different surfaces! No other channel does that.
Thanks for watching

Ron, how would the polished GB5 compare to GB4 hybrid
How does this compare to the phaze 2?

2000,3000, P5000D with TruCuT Conditioner for roughly 2 passes on 4 sides on a high speed spinner.
@@Ctdbowling - what would be the equivalent on a single speed, 1/2 HP innovative products ball spinner?
@@mireally yes
Love your videos ❤
