The Chronic is the newest solid release from Motiv. I had much anticipation for this release, the original Paranoia is one of my favorite balls in the line up. I was interested to see what a solid version would do. I ordered 2 right away and drilled them both. I have one 50 X 4.75 X 35 pin up and the other 60 X 4.5 X 60 pin down. I wanted to see was how they would stack up.
The pin up ball as would be expected sees the friction and motion much more than the pin down ball. The pin down is much more controllable/predictable for myself. I was surprised to see the Chronic be as strong as it is. With this ball landing directly in the middle of the ball chart and having as much success over the years with other such balls. I feel this ball is going to make a very good benchmark ball. The ball should allow me to see the lane easy and tell me right away what direction I may need to go if that ball isn't working on the given pattern.
The overall strong motion and continuation of this ball is going to a good compliment to the original Paranoia. The Chronic is overall stronger and smoother than the Paranoia, not as strong overall as the Forza GT. I am looking forward to using this ball on a typical house pattern when I see one. I am hopeful this ball will be as amazing as the original Sigma was on house patterns. Sigma is still my all time favorite house pattern killer.
