900 Global Burner Solid Review

[Music] [Applause] [Music]

hello and thanks for joining us for another ball review this one is for the 900 global burner solid this one will feature me and the one for the pearl will feature angel my layout is four and three quarter by five by two and a half so going pin up for this one rather than the pin and ring like i've done with most of the other stuff uh low differential stuff and weaker balls period are usually kind of hit and miss for me plus i drill the last couple hustles and electrifies pin up so this will be a closer comparison to them we use turbo quad classic grips and turbo urethane thumb solids and we also like

to use reacta foam for the shiny stuff it keeps the cover clean without affecting or changing the surface the burner solid features the s62 solid cover and symmetric centroid core and the number in the cover gives you an idea of their overall strength so s62 is a cleaner low to medium strength cover like vtc on the hustles or like reactor on the electrifies and this is where the burners live too it's less an entry level ball like a like a tropical surge and more a performance ball for lighter or heavily

transition conditions the symmetric centroid core is also in the hustle electrify range it comes in at a 253 rg and an 037 differential and 15 pounds the transition the last couple years to cores with low to medium rg's and differentials creates a more stable and versatile reaction quote unquote entry-level balls in the past tended to have higher rg's with the lower differentials to both help them get down the lane and avoid being too flippy or quick but when you combine that with

weaker cover stocks what you got more often than not what was ball reaction that was overly sensitive if you got friction they'd still move but any kind of oil and they just skate so by lowering the rg you get a stronger more stable roll but still with a low to medium differential to give you enough flare to keep some ring separation to further increase the consistency but without being too much it's kind of an iq tour type idea just in a weaker package we're here once again at royal crest lanes in lawrence kansas on the house shot big thanks to them for always

taking care of us right away it's just a bit too glossy out of the box and here's the deal 95 percent of people watching this video only bowl on house shots and probably the same amount bowl with the ball the way it comes out of the box for the vast majority of people if it doesn't look good in league the way it came out of the box it's not going to last long i could have had them put out a zillion different patterns and tried all kinds of surfaces but i've got to review it on a league pattern at box surface that's just the reality i've done all kinds of videos on different conditions and several videos on surface prep and there's only so much i can stuff into a video and so much that can

actually be seen or realized in a video by sanding the surface you're going to make the ball stronger earlier and smoother which will increase control and blend out over under reactions the rougher you make the surface the more you're going to exaggerate those things i'm going to start with react to scuff it'll break the shine and give it a sheen around 3000 grit which will blend the reaction slightly without making it too much stronger or earlier and i'll have a separate video coming soon on that this one is virtually on top of the burner pearl with the shine on it again think baby zen so running the pearl shiny and the solid dull or at least not

glossy will give you a nice one-two punch that would be reminiscent of the zenons and master just obviously not as strong or if you're after just one or the other they're so close that you can pretty well just pick the one that looks the best the differences are pretty marginal with the out-of-box finish comparing it to the zen if you've watched the burner pearl review featuring angel i've got the same kind of look in comparison shiny at least i'll be back soon with the solid sanded and we'll see how it compares to the zen master but the zen is a pretty strong heavy rolling ball even polished it's got the same even controlled and rolly

shape but obviously it's a fair bit stronger and heavier rolling where the burner solid can get a little lazy with too much angle or catching too much oil you can see the zen digs through all that however at the same time once the lanes start drying up or you catch too much friction it's going to react more strongly than the burner solid will the idea with lighter oil balls is to act on light conditions or transition like heavier oil balls do on heavier conditions and once the lanes transition enough that the zen becomes too much ball the burner solid or pearl will step right in and the extra friction will be

there for it now lefties can't even spell transition but if you run into lighter conditions or generally favor this type of ball anyway you can't beat this type of reaction for the price the burner pearl and burner solid are available now and i have links both in the description and at the end of the video to buy them and anything else you're in need of at bowlersmart using any of those links will let them know i sent you they're now a major sponsor of the channel and supporting them supports me for ratings i'm giving the solid the same numbers as the pearl four for hook seven for length and seven for back in

the differences are too marginal to change anything and then it wouldn't accurately reflect the differences between it and other balls it like the pearl lives in electrify and hustle territory and with the shine it's got a very zen-like shape and we'll see in a future video if it would be a good step or two down from the zen master with some surface on it thanks for watching and may the strikes be with you [Music]
