What if I told you we could make the Evil Eye even better? Radical is excited to announce a new addition to the Top-Shelf line, the Vexed. The Vexed is an asymmetrical version of the Evil Eye. We used the same technology that made the Evil Eye one of the hottest balls on the market and made tweaks to create an asymmetrical complement.
The Vexed has an Rg of 2.49, an intermediate differential of .012, and a total differential of .036, resulting in a differential ratio of 3 to 1. This is the sweet spot for differential ratios. The Vexed's drilling numbers pick up where The Evil Eye's left off. The Evil Eye's intermediate differential ranged from a low of .007 to a high of 023, while the Vexed ranges from a low of .008 to a high of .029.
The drilling instructions for the Vexed are based on the same concept as the Evel Eye, taking into account where the thumb hole is placed. Both balls use drilling into the core protrusion to dictate performance; the difference being that the Vexed core allows for more motion down lane, making it the perfect complement to the Evil Eye. When our testers compared Vexed to the Evil Eye, they found an increase in overall hook and a sharper backend motion due to the stronger core and upgraded HK22C+ cover. They all agreed that the Vexed and the Evil Eye are a perfect one-two punch. To assist our customers, we have kept the drilling categories very similar, offering four asymmetrical drillings and two symmetrical drillings. We believe sales of the Vexed will rival those of the Evil Eye.
