What is this?

Post by ReSiStAnCe »

I was just looking at the Don Johnson Eliminator (rerun) and I noticed something about Brian Kretzer's spare ball.

What is this strange tab?
Is this legal? I was told that you cannot make a ball thicker in any way, not even a sticker on the surface...

Well if I am seeing it right it is a royal crown spare ball by roto grip. Which has a little circle like thing under the cover by the pin.

That is correct, the globe has a marking around the pin and the reason it looks like that in the picture is its part of the core piece and covered in clear material which creates an illusion that it is big and on top of the ball, if you see one in person you will understand.


On Edit, heres a picture where you can see it better.
