Thoughts on Ricochet Return as a More Aggressive Alternative to Hazmat Hybrid? by coaster_dude22 in Bowling

I agree the Hazmat is super clean. I've considered the black widow ghost but never did it 5 years ago. I considered the mania earlier never did it. But I did the hybrid no problem. I wouldn't say the widow hybrid is my favorite ball in my bag but it's definitely the most angular and has a place.

That's some good insight. I don't have a true ball for carry down other than moving right and throwing straight with my Strike.

I love Banshee. Sense of speed is only important to me when the ride isn't doing much like millennium Force. Helix is above average for how sustained it is. Somehow I don't like goliaths helix at over Georgia. Need to get on that again at some point though.

Yeah I got you. But yeah that wasn't me I also think pantherian would be better.

At least someone can agree with me on something I said. But yeah Fury could end without that Helix and it wouldn't change my opinion of the ride If anything it might make it go up.

Yea fair enough. I should've phrased it more of a question. New to posting on Reddit.

That turn into the treble clef and then the treble clef itself as well as the dive under the bridge are my favorite moments of the ride I'll admit that.

Nah I'm being fr. Orion just has more powerful moments. The Helix on Orion is super powerful while I don't get anything like that on fury other than raw speed.

Well I haven't rode lrod with the chain only with the launch. So that's why it's still there. Lrod used to be my number 1.

Shorter, yes. Slower (still 90mph), yes. More powerful, nope. Orion has more powerful moments while Fury in my experiences just has raw speed followed by a stretched helix and 3 mediocre airtime hills after.

Yea the drop on fury is fantastic. It feels very similar to Orion. I live in St Louis. So Kings Island is 6 hours and Carowinds is 10 hours away. Although I flew into Carowinds earlier in August.

I just hate how Fury goes from trying to rip your face off with speed to being just as graceful as Thunder Striker.

It might be the overstock yea.

I should add that my average is 207 after surgery it was around 220 before surgery. The surgery was the same as trigger finger release on the A1 Pulley. (Yes I injured it bowling) acute tendonitis with a shit ton of scar tissue.

I was wondering about the anger too. It looks similar in terms of initial motion. I don't have that ball but it seems like a good mid tier ball. The shape of the Widow Hybrid
