Learning Curve

**Houdini** · 23-10-2007, 17:39

A mate of mine has been powerballing in earnest for all of - oooh - 3 days after quite a lay off.

His new personal best is 1 5 9 3 4

That's world number two.

More info to follow.

I find that to be incredibly unlikely. It is more likely he has a faulty counter. Get a video of him getting a 15K+ score and post it up. Then it can be analysed and confirem if he really is going to be the next Akis or just a counter error.

I'm 99% confident it is a counter error though, but you never know.

Counter error unless you got a video of it so we can compare the sound on a Powerballyzer to check the pitch....

what sort of scores was he getting before this 15,900+ score ?

If he can get a score close to it again then it might be believeable

This is a bouldering forum. Bouldering is the most powerful form of rock climbing.

I am houdini's mate. Video being uploaded onto youtube now. Called powerball 15433, sound is quiet but I hope you can hear the pitch - i have a smooth action which stops it screaming so much.
