Belmo Almost Ends His Career!! PBA Doubles Day 1 

😄💯

he was using a dexter heel

There will always be defective items in the world.

LOLL IT WASNT THE SHOESSS HAHAH IT WAS THE LANE THE LANE WAS STICKY HAHAHA

@@gabbypanetta4557no it was the heel sticking like it should have to stop his slide and his velcro on the bottom giving out

@@Cars0n01 no sir you at incorrect

I'm amazed at how his eyes are still on the lane and the ball after falling down. That's a professional bowler right there.

@@Jeon1958able that’s what it is about I’m two handed and fell many times like this before and did the same thing everytime lol gotta keep your eyes on the ball no matter what lmao

literally the exact same thing happened to me the other week too

@@joespagnola9253 ah ok, that makes more sense. Probably a good thing this didn't happen on TV either way.

I've never seen this happen. I have had sole come off tons of times (I even put screws in it to keep it in place before when I was desperate), but not the heel. It seems like kind of a freak thing. I guess he swaps out his heel a lot; I personally don't.

RIGHT! I literally told my partner i have a new nightmare to fear.

I’ve done it. It sucks lol

ive never took mine off got the shoes in 2012 ish .... im guessing it wouldnt come off even if i tried haha.

yeah probably since your an 85 year old geezer

The only time I've fallen in bowling, is when I forgot to put on my bowling shoes. Just a classic case of street shoes gripping the floor, causing me to lose balance over the foul line.

Bowling alley was awesome!!!

@@TheHouseBowling Did you guys roll a game or just give it a look?

@Robert Spence I haven’t been there in years so it’s best to give them a call.

Thanks for your service to the community, Derrick!

@@AcessDBpro my pleasure.

Especially when the heel of your shoe pops out, has happened to me before and it's not pleasant

It was just shit luck for the heel to malfunction

It has happened to me 3 different times 🙃 not a fun feeling lol

30 years of bowling and I can't recall ever seeing that. Looked scary.

He was on Luke Rosdahl's live stream today. He said because it was a test shoe, he was using Dexter heels on 3g shoes. He's been bowling 3 tournaments and won 1 with the same heel. For whatever reason, the two "hook and loop" surfaces decided they didn't want to work together anymore.

Shoe sole Velcro wore out!!

You can see the soul of shoe came off!

Nah, if Belmo was really as good as they say he is, he would have still struck while falling on his ass. :)

@@nordattack why you hating

Belmo is not #1 at all. All you 2 hand fan boys can suck it. He has so far to get to the GOAT WRWJR.

@@ChevyRedneckGFX Not hating. Just kidding. Belmo is my favorite Modern Bowler.

Have you thrown a few artifacts from those days that only have the middle and thumb holes? I have some orbs that are much older than I but they all have three holes ( :

@@coopergates9680 Believe it or not, when I was younger, you could still find the odd house ball with a two finger grip, usually a Brunswick or Manhattan Rubber. They were left behind by other bowlers, and wound up as house balls. I tried one once. I managed to drop the thing on the first attempt. LOL Second attempt I did a modified two hand delivery to make sure I didn't drop it again. My father had no problem with it. When he was younger, the two finger grip was not common, but it was out there so he bowled with it for a while.

@@gwencrawford737 A black beauty? Were there any crown jewels with two holes? Ed Lubanski inspired your father? Or he found a number of balls with the grip? It felt like putting too much load on the middle finger when I tried it. I could try again and simply release it gently

You should watch “Two hands on the future” it’s a great video that is almost like a documentary on 2 handed bowling, and actually talks about how there actually was a guy that paved the way for Osku and Jason back in the 90’s if I remember right. But either way, as long as you have have a ball, pins and 60 feet that’s what matters.

Doubles tournaments don't draw the fans like the single tournaments do...Holman Roth nostalgia is the only reason PBA still does it.

PBA should have more tournaments.

@@Krranski no money in it...

@@jayvallandingham2406 I know. It was more of a rhetorical statement. The PBA, and other competitive bowling events, should have more public interest and thus more commercial funding. Times are lean for bowling and it sucks that the bowling season is so short, with relatively few tournaments and competitors.

Likewise, I have a new pair of THE 9s and I have to pull as hard as I can to get the sole or heel off.

One of the ladies in our league forgot to take her shoe covers off and she ended up fracturing her shoulder from the fall she took. Had to put a metal plate in the shoulder. Fortunately for her, it was the opposite arm.

That’s awesome!!!
