My bad, my video repeated the same area of the video when I was watching and I thought it was a different frame. When I exit out of youtube and continue, sometimes it repeats an earlier point of the video instead of where I left off. I watched the rest of the video and it was only the first frame

This is so awesome. I love when manufacturers go out of their way to help out content creators. Question: Can you possibly put in a weight block that is a different density but still clear?

[@tmtmtlsml]

Intuitively, I suspect that any sort of material dense enough to be considered a "weight block" would be too dense to be transparent.

[@Kiryokuu]

​@@tmtmtlsml Polycarbonate is about 40% heavier than resin, so that would make for a good weight block.

[@Terminal423]

Dude that ball looks sick. Unfortunately won't be able to pick one up due to timing, but I'm super excited for you having gotten this ball made. More in the future? Having a USBC Certified 220Avg ball would be amazing.

[@decadude8968]

The ball looks amazing!!! It actually looks like one of those glass orbs that photographers use to make unique camera shots. I really hope you get enough pre orders to make it worth continually making them!

[@220avg]

Even if nobody orders it this is still my favorite video and ball of all time

[@bosoares]

You should try polishing the inside of those finger holes so they look clear too and blend better.

[@h8re]

If a lot of people buy it, i wonder if it would worth be doing it again in a year, because that ball looks so cool. Or you could also get like 5% more than preorders if enough people want one

[@220avg]

I’ll likely buy just a few extra. I think it makes it cooler making it a limited edition release

[@R91vsDriver]

Weight block idea: Have the 220AVG in a 3d printed font (different colors too) and have that be the weight block. I want to use mine in competition. Too good to be shelved or just to play around with. I've been in the hunt for a new spare ball. This might just be it except that I won't be able to use it. Needs to be 15 lbs.

[@TraumaER]

Or get his own bobble head in his likeness and stuffed into a plastic ball. That would be the world’s first bobble head bowling ball. 😂

[@TheInsaneShecklador]

Drill the finger holes right through the zeros.

[@Samuel-xs2yv]

Dude this thing is sick!! I think you should still seek to make a ball that's USBC certified though. That'd be such a cool milestone for the channel. Maybe the core could be shaped like your cat or mail truck or something lol

[@midnighttker9920]

A lighted spinning ball base would be awesome with that ball

[@IssacTovv]

Reminds me of the old Fushigi balls 😎 I’ve always wanted one as a kid

[@Mage_Nichlas_]

Of course 220 is a wizard. Out here pondering his orb in public like a madman. Also, that montage is beautiful.

[@zharfanfps7202]

gahlyyyyyyyyy the engraving on the ball is just chef kiss

[@brandonwilliams5563]

Try it out in cosmic bowling, will it be invisible?

[@tylerwhitfield995]

It would be cool if you put some mini submersible LED lights in the finger holes and watch the ball light up all sorts of different colors while bowling.

[@styx102757]

Important note if you do buy one, KEEP IT COVERD or away from any window/sunlight. Clear spheres are very good at magnifying and focusing any and all light and can cause fires.

[@decadude8968]

Yeah, see HIH's bowling video about starting a fire with a bowling ball to see it in action.

[@billcain7821]

Another OUTSTANDING video, you need to get with Forest Kritzer and have a competition to see who can throw the best series with this ball. You may need to get one for him and get it drilled to fit his one hand style of bowling just to be fair since he's really not a two-handed bowler.

[@SirJoelsuf1]

I would TOTALLY get one of these as a spare ball. Perhaps the "220Avg" can be part of the weight block?

[@220avg]

Only issue is that anything inside of the ball would ruin the beautiful visual effect :/

[@JohnnyGoodz]

If there ever was a doubt how much the weight block contributes to score, this is the video to rule them all! Great vid. Ball looks so cool.

[@ForrestKritzer]

That is the coolest bowling ball of all time😲

[@aceassn716]

Cooler than Ernie McCracken with the 🌹?!? Haha that ball should always be in the discussion

[@chandlerpeach2656]

[@matevo7745]

Sending love from Malaysia! That's an awesome ball u got there

[@220avg]

Thank you sir!

[@joepic85]

You should see if you can partner with storm or something and have them make you R&D balls.

[@Springing_Line]

Just a heads up that a clear sphere can act as a focusing lens when light hits it. Sunlight going through this could theoretically set your house on fire. You see this issue with crystal balls... You should make a cover or a cloth to keep it covered when in storage...

[@decadude8968]

Yeah HIH's video called starting a fire with a bowling ball is a demonstration of that lol

[@jamesb6505]

Wonder if you could save all the shavings from all the balls you drill and figure out a way to melt into a liquid and pour a unique ball ?

[@nordattack]

Totally cool looking ball. It needs to be played totally in the dry to work though. I am curious, since it has no puck in it, what were the final drilled static weights?

[@Ichigo1817]

The ball looks amazing 😍. I really want one. Can't afford it rn tho unfortunately 😩. Hopefully this isn't a one time thing and u do this again🤞🏾

[@mreconcepts2117]

Should see of they can make a clear ball, with Like one of those light up balls, that turn on when in motion as a core.

[@emanuelmorales2914]

Maybe just a thought , can you have them do do a mini clear ball and put that in as a core?

[@Dsco]

You could maintain the clear/refractive aspect of the ball with an interior core that has a mirror finish, maybe in some sort of aluminum? That is how those gimmicky fushigi balls are made. Could be an idea to make a legal version that still has the feeling of being clear and reflective!

[@decadude8968]

Yeah I actually think that might work. If a dense glass orb in the middle of the ball doesn't work, you could probably put something brightly polished or relfective foil wrapped in the middle to still make a cool affect. That might work.

[@TheInsaneShecklador]

I seem to remember reading years ago that metal cores are not allowed by USBC.

[@Khaosclan]

It'd be amazing to see that ball on a lane that interacts with motion

[@benroyz]

The ball looks like it's completely fake or showing some sort of a hologram when you were taking it to random place for montage. It's pretty cool to see a clear bowling ball!

[@dumattco]

Clearly, that ball would be a nine pin no tap monster! Pun Intended 🤪

[@robertjenkins2578]

Hey 220! I love the novelties. I have a suggestion for a bowling stunt you might organize somehow. How about a trip in the Way-Back Machine, a throwback to bowling as it used to be on tv. Like Championship Bowling. Wooden lanes. Oil applied by hand. Black rubber bowling balls. Don’t skimp on the bowling balls. Plug and redrill to fit properly. Old fashioned King Louie style bowling shirts. Get a “bowling expert” to narrate, comment, and do a post game summary and presentation of the cash winnings for the game. I’m sure you must have seen old time tv bowling shows on KZbin. Maybe viewers will have fun seeing how the game has changed. I think it would be fun for one video.

[@nicholas104]

Here's an idea for a video. Flex Seal bowling ball. Let it dry layer by layer.

[@aodhhanswtor7252]

They made them in the 1980s. Very few people purchased them, even when we finally put them on sale for next to nothing. As soon as finger holes are drilled in them, they look like someone stuck 3 pegs in them. Also, it takes little time for them to get scratched up and the luster dulls out.

[@decadude8968]

You should honestly sell those at market price just to have thousands of bowlers using your ball. That would be epic. 😂

This ball looks great. I'd buy one for sure if it was legal. Were you able to notice the size difference from a normal ball and do you think it had any impact on carry?

Years ago there was a study on bowling ball size and most of the participants actually favored the smaller balls. Because of that I'm guessing it wouldn't be much worse than normal.
