    in the text when you get to differential you can move your mouse over some words and it will clarify what it means
    Yeah, did you read it? Like rob said, diff is the track flare potential which is the indicator for the type of back end motion. Again this is before drilling and can be altered one way or the other. Listen man, i don't want to argue with you. You can look at the those numbers how ever you want as long as it works for you. Good luck with your game.

    Right on the site it says, under differential: "Differential is an indicator of a bowling balls track flare potential. Bowling balls with lower differentials are more stable, therefore generating less track flare potential. Bowling balls with higher differentials are unstable, therefore generating a much larger track flare potential." which is exactly what FTLOB said.

    lol diff does create flare did you go down and READ the RG area because it seems you did not read it properly when it says the DIFF creates length nothing about hook, only flare flare does not create hook, all flare does is move the core inside the ball.

    I will post everything it says here for everyone to read.

    The difference of the radius of gyration of a bowling balls X axis (the weight block vertical) compared to the radius of gyration of the same balls Y or Z axis (the weight block horizontal). Differential is an indicator of a bowling balls track flare( The migration of the ball track from the bowler's initial axis (the axis upon release/PAP) to the final axis (the axis at the moment of impact with the pins). Flare is a length modifier. Flare is used to expose fresh, dry ball surface to the lane surface, the entire length of the lane. The greater the Flare, the greater the amount of friction between the ball and the lane; the greater the friction, the greater the hook potential of a ball.) Bowling balls with lower differentials are more stable, therefore generating less track flare potential.(The maximum amount that the axis of a bowling ball can migrate given the construction of the ball provided that the bowler has a maximum power release. Flare potential can also be used to indicate which balls will be better suited for oily conditions (high flare balls) and which balls will be better suited for dryer lane conditions (low flare balls).). Bowling balls with higher differentials are unstable, therefore generating a much larger track flare potential. Also, differential is a guide to the internal versatility of a ball. It can indicate just how much of a length (An evaluation of how far a ball will travel before it begins to hook. Length does not include skid caused by lane conditioner, additional fine sanding, or the use of polishes) adjustment can be made through drilling. Balls with lower differential will allow only modest length adjustments whereas balls with higher differential may translate into a length window of up to 5-times that of low differential balls.


    I even put the side notes in it for you guys to read.

    Exactly the core is unstable inside and that creates flare and motion. For instance, i have a black diamond my dad bough in 1962 and when i throw it there is 1 oil line about the width of a pencil. This is because the core is stable and therefore the ball rolls fairly straight. Now, a current ball has multiple oil rings which is flare and is why we can now hook the ball the way we do.

    Just explain where in there it says diff controls length and not the part in parenthesis you added.

    ok your completely not understanding it at all. DIFF creates friction with you have a high DIFF ball it will create more friction preventing it from going down the lane to far. the RG is was changes the direction of the ball

    Radius of gyration, RG measured in inches, radius of gyration is the distance from the axis of rotation at which the total mass of a body might be concentrated without changing its moment of inertia.(Resistance to change in rotation)

    go back to the site and go back down the DIFF it has words in it that are underlines move your mouse over that word and it will come up with more text witch will clarify what it says.

    I think you are misunderstanding the part where it says something about length adjustments. Is that the part where you get the length definition?

    ok nothing I have said was about the length adjustments if you go into the side notes on that side it will explain what it means. all my information has come from storm.


    so im done here you guys think your all correct even when i asked storm and they have clarified it for me. i have also been to pro shop seminars witch they talk about this and i have also watched the video that storm released about the crux webinar and they explain it in there. 1 thing you guys don't seem to get about me is i have a very good visual memory i watch or get told something i can remember forever. i cant even watch a movie more then once because i remember what happens in it.
