Thanks! Maybe if I pick up more Stratas, I'll get one of the D2's to compare side by side.

I figure by the end of this year, the D2's will be dirt cheap and the Strata's will be harder to find. I have always usually stood by 3 piece balls, but the Slazengers I have are O.K., but it is the first set of 3 piece balls that I have run across that I really see no big difference. They were great for $10, but I would have gladly paid $15 for the Stratas. I may start using them as my water balls, and my water balls as regular to get rid of them faster. I see no real difference in play between them and a good 2 piece. For whatever reason, most of the Maxfli 3 piece have not been on sale for a while. Still hoping they come out with a new one and lower the Black Max, which is down to $24
