<b>My layout:</b> 55 degrees x 4/12 inches x 65 degrees. <b>My PAP:</b> 5 7/8 inches over and 3/8 inches up. Overall I really like Modern Marvel, it gives me a different look than any other ball in my bag. This ball is especially good when keeping the ball in play is important. I don't see this as a ball that will help open up the backend or create pocket area, at least not with the layout I chose. It's great when going up the boards and when you need a predictable ball motion. I have used the Modern Marvel on the 2012 Nationals patter on a Brunswick surface, a 43' House pattern on AMF surface and a modified house pattern on AMF surface. All lane patterns were fresh. The characteristic of the ball that struck me the strongest was the lack of overreaction or at least less than I would see with high end asymmetric balls making this a ball that is very easy to trust. I can see the Modern Marvel being a go to ball early on in team event at the Nationals this year. Scott Widmer Storm Amateur Staff Member
