900 Global Bank Pearl

03 Feb

Get more bang for your buck with the 900 Global Bank Pearl.Purchase a Bank Pearl and win your shot at a World Series of Poker Main Event Seat!

900 Global has already taken you to the BANK, but now it's time to earn your money on the BACKEND with the new Bank Pearl!

The Bank Pearl is the first ball in the 900 Global lineup to feature the S74 shell, the S74 shell combines with the SRC core to create a strong controllable skid-flip motion down the lane.

The Bank Pearl features the Self Righting Core (SRC). The SRC is both homogeneous in nature and also mono-monostatic. The unique core shape contains only one stable point. Unlike all other cores in the industry the SRC core will always move and twist to its stable position regardless of how or where it is placed. It will right it self!

Our testing indicated that when in rotation the core shape easily moves without resistance or hesitation in seeking the stable spot helping give the Bank and Bank Pearl greater ease in transitioning through the phases of ball motion. Other cores on the market that have multiple stable, or flat spots, must expend additional energy to move off of that position and thus not efficiently and effectively optimize energy transfer to yield maximum ball reaction. The SRC, once in motion, does not need to expend additional energy to seek its sole stable position and therefore creates optimum ball reaction for the bowler.

An additional benefit of the SRC is the value of the Moment Arm. The moment arm measures the likelihood of a force to rotate an object about any given axis. The larger the moment arm the greater amount of loping and imbalance forces the core will have during rotation. This effect leads to increased energy retention. The SRC has the greatest moment arm available. The combination of having the greatest moment arm and only one stable point creating the least resistance gives The Bank a unique and powerful motion.

The 900 Global Bank Pearl is currently selling for $159.99 and rates a 216.7 on the bowlingball.com Perfect Scale®.

 

Brunswick Loaded Revolver

03 Feb

Another great bowling ball from Brunswick.Now you've definitely got bullets in the chamber with the Brunswick Loaded Revolver!
Black and white sometimes combine on this ball to create a pink swirl

Propel X Coverstock
The Loaded Revolver maximizes its performance by using Propel X reactive coverstock technology. Propel X features an enhanced pore structure to provide Xtra consistency from shot to shot and Xtra workability on a wider variety of lane conditions

Jack Core
The Jack core was designed as a low RG symmetric core with a high differential. The low RG engages in the mid-lane assisting in ball motion, and the high differential increases track flare potential giving the ball more opportunity to grip the back-end while using standard layouts and interchangeable thumb sleeves.

Ball Motion
With its Rough Buff finish, the Loaded Revolver unites the proven Propel X coverstock and the Jack low RG core to produce a ball motion that clears the front with ease and is aggressive in the mid-lane with a quick, continuous response to friction on the backend.

Reaction Setup
The Loaded Revolver can be drilled using the standard drilling techniques developed for symmetric bowling balls.

Lightweight Engineering
The unique core shape of each Brunswick ball is used for weights from 14 to 16 pounds. This approach to lightweight ball engineering provides bowlers with consistent ball reaction characteristics across this weight range. The same drilling instructions can be used for 12- and 13-pound balls. This is because Brunswick uses a generic core shape with an RG differential that is close enough to the 14-16 pound shape.

The Brunswick Loaded Revolver is currently selling for $79.99 and rates a 204.8 on the bowlingball.com Perfect Scale®

 

The Brunswick C-System Alpha-Max Specs

06 Jan

Another great bowling ball for heavy oil lanes.CFT ALPHA-MAX Coverstock

CFT alpha-max is our newest breakthrough in Chemical Friction Technology. The CFT alpha-max coverstock uses a higher concentration of the CFT additive in order to maximize the chemical system. The CFT alpha-max coverstock is the highest friction factor of any Brunswick ball to date. The secret is in the technology which creates more traction with chemical friction instead of mechanical friction. Being able to use less mechanical friction for hook, allows the ball to skid easier through the front part of the lane saving axis rotation for more energy on the backend.

I-Block Asymmetric Core

The proven Asymmetric I-Block core enhances the CFT alpha-max coverstock to create maximum forgiveness, strong entry angles along with versatile drilling layouts

Ball Motion

This ball is off the chart! The C(System) alpha-max is so strong we had to add a column to the Ball Comparison chart and increase our Hook Potential scale to describe the ball motion. With its 4000-grit Siaair micro pad finish, the C(System) alpha-max offers the highest hook potential of any Brunswick ball to date. The C(System) alpha-max skids effortlessly through the front, saving axis rotation in the mid-lane to grab the backend for strong response to friction and cuts easily through the pins.

Reaction Setup

The C(System) alpha-max can be drilled using the standard drilling techniques developed for asymmetric bowling balls.

Lightweight Engineering

The unique core shape of each Brunswick ball is used for weights from 14 to 16 pounds. This approach to lightweight ball engineering provides bowlers with consistent ball reaction characteristics across this weight range. The same drilling instructions can be used for 12- and 13-pound balls. This is because Brunswick uses a generic core shape with an RG differential that is close enough to the 14-16 pound shape.

Storm Victory Road

14 Dec

Looks line another winner from Storm.We were looking for a versatile piece with a strong motion down lane. As we designed the new Victory Road, we first considered the core and then the coverstock.

The success of the original Hy-Road was due in part to the core shape that created a roll pattern with ample flare that just seemed to always get the job done. And while it can be challenging to improve upon perfection, the inverted Fe3 technology in the new Victory Road does just that.

Wrapping the re-engineered Fe3 weight block with the proper shell material is essential to realizing the benefits of both! So we chose the reliable and proven R2S material for its ability to handle a wide variety of lane conditions. With the Victory Road's straight pearl mixture, you'll go deep in the pocket while reaching shallow into your pockets!

The Storm Victory Road is currently selling for $123.95 and rates a 185.5 on the bowlingball.com Perfect Scale®.

 

Storm Marvel

14 Dec

In order for the new Marvel to live up to its name, we used the reputable R2Xcoverstock, a strong solid reactive blend made famous on the original Virtual Gravity. With the chosen 2000-grit Abralon finish, R2X manages the midlane like a champ, and if you listen to Norm Duke's interviews you will hear him talk about transition and break point. These key points are DIRECTLY related to the surface of the ball, the most critical part as it actually touches the lane!


Looking inside the new Marvel, the Centripetal core's unique shape has several advantages for both ball driller and bowler. Pro shops love the fact that this core produces similar motion with a variety of layouts. At the same time, bowlers love the fast-revving, low RG design that creates more total ball motion.


If you liked the prodigy you will really like this one.
