Re: Inverted track
Is that because it’s just used for reference? Seems a pin with an x Val angle would migrate quite differently

Re: Sport Layout Ratio Question
Hmm, interesting specs I have tried to stay away from recommending the Asymmetrical low flare for bowlers with higher tilt especially when coupled with speed dominance.

Axis rotation
Does anyone have any information on the rotation of the top pros?
