THE NEW EBONITE & HAMMER BALLS
There is plenty to be attracted to when talking about the new Ebonite Allure. The Allure features the new symmetric Allure core shape with great numbers for strong mid-lane and continuation along with DynamiCore. Allure is a shiny pearl that uses a new version of the proven Traxion cover. Allure was a favorite among all testers and will make its way into lots of bags this season.

Omni is the newest addition to the Ebonite line up. All our testers loved the Omni for its versatility. It reminded everyone of the famous V2, not only because of the familiar black and blue colors, but the usability it provides on so many conditions for many styles. The Omni core is a new asymmetric shape for the Ebonite line, and the outer core has the proven DynamiCore technology for more power at impact. Ebonite fans will love that the Omni uses characteristics of the popular GSV 2.0 cover.

The Hammer Redemption Solid bowling ball screams Hammer with bold orange, black, and white colors and extremely aggressive ball motion. The Redemption Solid flat out hooks and needs a lot of oil as the cover and finish are as strong as the Hammer line has ever seen. The new Redemption core also has strong numbers for more overall hook. If that doesn’t excite you enough, the Redemption core also has DOT, which, of course, allows you to drill anywhere and makes these tough balls even tougher. Along with DOT is an orange inner core and the outer core is infused with carbon fiber.

The Redemption Pearl goes long and finishes strong! The Aggression NE Pearl cover makes its way through the heads easily and has a sharp breakpoint. Hammerheads will love the Redemption Pearl when the Redemption Solid has burned up the lane and you need a high-end ball to get down there and deliver big backend motion and devastating hitting power.
