He flipped right as the ball approached it, and while the timing wasn't good enough for a perfect live catch it still managed to eat some of the ball's momentum. If he had just held it up well before the ball reached it, chances are he would have lost control of it.I really wish we could get a video of someone just holding the flipper up on a real Fish Tales with fresh rubbers and launching the ball over and over again so we can all look at the same thing and come to an agreement on how the rubbers should react in that situation (I tried going out and testing similar stuff myself but unfortunately none of the games at the location I visited had unblocked orbits or plungers powerful enough to make it all the way around...). All I know is that if you can catch the ball consistently by simply holding the flipper up when you plunge, there's a problem. Only Gottlieb games should behave that way since the flippers on those swing so high.</blockquote>
