The 505C² is the first release to use the same numbers and letters as a previous ball. The 505C² uses a very slightly modified Shuttle core from the 505C and Kinetic lines and combines it with an updated cover in the Gen MC reactive coverstock.

The result is the power and predictability from the original 505C. We had our best look on our medium test pattern. All three testers were able to start closer to the track area on this pattern. The ball easily got through the front and provided us with a controlled arc once it made its move
