Iq tour emerald really simular to timeless and rocketship

Post by krava »

I believe the iq tour emerald has the same coverstock as the timeless or rocketship.

The emerald is a pearl while the rocketship is a solid and the timeless is a hybrid. Am I wrong in thinking that if the rocketship and the emerald are drilled the same, the emerald might go a little further downlane and have a little more backend then the rocketship but nothing really drastic?

I am setting myself up for 15lbs if I need to. The only 15lbs I have are these
Storm match pearl drilled low flare
Storm rocketship drilled control
c300 swerve fx drilled long and strong
radical conspiracy (not sure how drilled but I trust this to go as far left as I need to and come back)

My swerve fx isn't doing much of anything (haven't really gave it a chance since I have started throwing it better though, just got the hole beveled out tonight and haven't used it in a long time) and I don't have anything really in between the rocketship and the super strong ball. I was looking at the all road coming out. As for 16lbs I have everything I ever need for that.

I have 1 ball drilled the way it is suppose to be drilled and that is the super sonic which I am likeing a lot right now. (16lbs) everything else has slightly the wrong pap in it or whatever it is when you say 5 3/4 by 3/8 up. it is like 1/2 off.

Timeless 2.57/.050
Rocketshjip 2.54/.046
Emerald IQ 2.49/.029

With the same layout, these balls will have different ball motion, since the core numbers and core shapes are very different.

Not only are the cores different, !Q Tour Emerald has a Pearl cover while the other two have solid covers.

Actually the Timeless has a hybrid coverstock, not a solid.
