900 Global Bank

Bank

The release date is 07/23/2010 this is the ball that could get you in the World Series Poker Main Event.
Purchase a Bank and win your shot at a World Series of Poker Main Event Seat!

900 Global has designed a ball that will take your game to the next level... and you can take that to the BANK!

The Bank features our newest core design 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 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. (For a greater detailed explanation view the entire technical article location on our website).

Bank Review from Walter Ray Williams Jr.

"The Bank is a great complement to the other balls in the line this year, a good aggressive ball that handles oil. The core and coverstockare a perfect match and transition well off the breakpoint in a firm predictable manner even on wetter conditions. The Bank allows me the flexibility to play multiple angles and maintain excellent carry from even the deeper parts of the lane. What I found very appealing was the way the Bank retained its energy, this upped my carry percentage."

Profit

900 Global Profit will be a great ball when you need more control in the front and a strong move in the backend.
It's time to turn talent and technology into Profit! The Profit is designed specifically to be clean through the front and rip down the lane. The new 900 Global Profit!

The Profit builds on the success of the S70 coverstock made popular by the Break and Break Out bowling balls. The Profit Pearl coverstock combines the S70 with a totally new core design from 900 Global which promotes a ball motion which starts up midlane and retains energy through the pins. This midlane motion and ease at which the Profit gets through the heads provides bowlers with a strong reactive ball which promotes flexibility to ones arsenal on a variety of lane conditions.

The 900 Global Profit is currently selling for $128.99 and rates a 207.6 on the bowlingball.com Perfect Scale™.

Brunswick C(System) 4.5

mike — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 21:19:22 +0000

C (System)4.5

This Brunswick C (System)4.5 will give you length through the heads and control in the backends.
CFT v4.5 Coverstock

CFT v4.5 is the next progression in Chemical Friction Technology. The CFT v4.5 coverstock has a lower friction factor than CFT 3.5 which improves length through the heads and mid-lane without
sacrificing the quick response and improved traction on the back-end.

I-Block Symmetric Core

The new I-Block Symmetric core was created by modifying the original asymmetric I-Block core (which has a symmetric base and an asymmetric flip block) to have an asymmetric base. By creating an asymmetric base with an asymmetric flip block on perpendicular axes the two asymmetries cancel each other out making the core shape symmetric. The core shape was also thinned and stretched to increase the RG min while maintaining the overall differential.

Ball Motion

With its Rough Buff finish, the C(System) v4.5 will offer a lower friction factor with similar response time to friction alternative to the C(System) 3.5. The new C(System) v4.5 is best used on medium to oily lane conditions when you need to use a breakpoint further down the lane with a quick response motion to increase pin carry.

Reaction Setup

The C(System) v4.5 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 C (System)4.5 is currently selling for $103.99 and rates a 211.8 on the bowlingball.com Perfect Scale™.

Storm New Release Prodigy 06/30/2010

Prodigy

With the R2X Pearl coverstock and Symmetric weight block this will give you length with a strong move in the backend.
prod-i-gy (n) - something wonderful or marvelous a wonder. The Prodigy is the new cornerstone of Storm's Master Line with a Centripetal core featuring a lower center of gravity to create stronger ball motion.

Our first enterprise was to build the new weight block from the ground up. Showcasing the Master Line, the Prodigy features an all-new Centripetal core design that would make even the most demanding engineer proud.

The shape of the new Centripetal core allows for consistency of dynamic design after drilling. What this means is that you can drill the Prodigy with a variety of layouts and guarantee consistent, predictable results from break point to pocket.

As for the cover, we encased the new core shape with a multitude of options and found the aggressive and reliable R2X Pearl material with E.T.M. (Enhanced Traction Mica) gave us the desired results. Having proven itself with the Second Dimension as Rhino Page will testify, the R2X Pearl with E.T.M. increased the surface profile as verified with the laboratory-quality profilo-meter.

And with a 4000-grit Abralon finish, you are sure to get a clean glide through the heads without sacrificing control of the midlane. You've got the best of both worlds!

In conclusion, Storm continues to develop innovative technology combined with fine workmanship. That's why we are The Bowler's Company.

Manufacturer description of the new Storm Invasion:

The Storm Invasion features the next generation of advancement in core and coverstock technology. Our first goal was to develop a strong asymmetrical design different than any other. The concept was to create contours along the RG planes to ensure a stronger preferred spin axis. We did this by developing intersecting contoured bands from the X-axis along the Y and Z axes. These bands are developed at specific arcs to maximize RG and differential values along the planes. In turn, this translates into a quicker revving core with a more defined moment of inertia or breakpoint unlike any prior design found on the market.

The all new Origin™ core boasts a 2.48 RG value with .057 total differential and a .017 intermediate differential. Using C.A.T.S., we tested the Origin™ core up against the Shape Lock™-HD core with same coverstock to see the differences, and we were amazed by the results. The Origin™ core started into the “hook” phase about 3 feet sooner and created a stronger entry angle to the pocket. Usually when we get the ball started into the “hook” phase sooner we see less entry angle to the pocket, but this core with the contoured bands along the RG planes definitely showed us something different.

The finishing touch to the Invasion™ is the R3X™ coverstock. This third generation of Reactor™ series coverstock has the highest Ra values ever produced by Storm products. Based on the USBC Ball Motion Study we know that higher Ra values produce more ball motion in the oil, and this coverstock is no exception. We saw a 9% increase in friction values in the oil and an increase of 5% down the lane over its predecessor R2X™ utilizing C.A.T.S. testing.
