Pinlocity Rating (PR)

How hard this pattern plays, 1 (a walled house shot) to 10 (long, flat, and heavy). Sport. Computed from the sheet numbers and the load tables; no opinions involved.

PR5.2
  • Ratio 45%3.8Flatter patterns score higher. 10:1 walls score 1, dead flat scores 10.
  • Distance 25%9.839 to 41 ft is the playable band; longer and shorter both climb.
  • Outside oil 20%3.5Oil on boards 3 to 7 takes away the miss room, measured from the load tables.
  • Volume 10%3.320 to 26 mL is typical; heavier or lighter both add difficulty.

Notes

Designed for FLEX | GREAT WALL OF CHINA - 5448 | Long associated with a blocked lane condition, the Great Wall of China pattern is the wall of all walls. At 48' in length, the best way to attack this pattern is up against the wall of oil instead of jumping to the drier part of the lane. Once lined up properly on the Great Wall of China, it will be almost impossible to cross over to the other side! Kegel Pattern Library: Kegel Patterns / Landmark Patterns.
