    I finally bit the bullet and bought the 3 ball bag... It hurt to spend the money, but I think I'll be happy with the outcome!

    once you get it let us know what you think.


    I may need to get myself a 3 baller roller at some point in the near future and would be interested to hear your opinion.

    It should be in on Wednesday. I'll let you know. I'm upset there aren't very good pictures of it online anywhere. I wish they would take pictures of the inside and stuff.

    The strong selling points for me were the wheels (my current wheels are hard plastic and if I hit a bump it starts rocking pretty violently. I'm anticipating the soft rubber will help it roll smoother and absorb the shock. With the extra weight of the 3rd ball, I don't need that kind of rocking going on), and the straps that go over the bag (form the "x" and probably have a velcro handle). I think those straps will help keep a little bit of the weight off the zippers and help with the durability.

    My current bag is this one (Ebonite Grand Tour, except mine is a 2 ball roller and the one pictured is a 3 ball roller):


    Now, there IS a strap inside the ball component that holds the balls tightly against the back and protects the zippers. BUT, the shoes still weigh a little, and the top of the bag has a little bit of wear from supporting that weight. It's not too bad, and I've actually been VERY pleased with that bag (I've had it for at least 4 or 5 years), but I needed a 3 ball bag. I have an add on, extra ball attachment for my two ball roller, but it's a bit of a hassle... Plus, the 3 ball roller has a couple extra storage compartments and I feel like that would be a good thing!

    I'll let you know how it turns out, once I get it in.
