The Track Paradox Trilogy is the third ball in the Paradox line of bowling balls. This ball offers a "long and strong" reaction. This reaction is achieved by pairing the QR-10 Hybrid coverstock with the i-Core 2.0 core. The coverstock provides more length as well as a quick and angular down lane motion. The proven i-Core 2.0 weight block helps create a unique ball motion by generating increased flare potential. The 500/1000 Abralon finish that is polished with Powerhouse Factory Finish Polish will help this ball dominate medium to heavy oil conditions.

Type (THS, Sport Pattern etc): THS


COMMENTS Strongest of the paradox line.  Great to have a shiny ball that hooks this much.  The I core goes thru the pins better than any other core available.  Great three ball punch with the paradox line.

Likes: Shiny hook.  Great color.

Dislikes: Might be a bit strong for most THS's.

The Paradox trilogy is actually what I was expecting from the Paradox Pearl.  For me it is cleanest through the front part of the lane out of the Paradox line.  I had mine drilled with the pin under the bridge and I still had a lot of angular downlane motion.  This is my favorite of the three.

Paradox Trilogy (Box surface) – Pin up about an inch and to the right of the ring finger CG swung out but not pass my PAP no x-hole.  Positive axis point is 4 3/8 right 1/2 up. 

I was able to use the Paradox Trilogy on a 39ft challenge pattern as well as various house shots.  The read I got was different then the other Paradoxes this one gets more length.  I believe the Trilogy needs the friction a little sooner and it has no problem getting to the pocket as long as the volume is not high and there is a good amount of oil in the front part of the lane.  It is not that wow ball as far as hook and strength however, it is that smooth arcing reaction that is easily readable.  The finishing power of the Paradox that is still something I will always love.  On the house shot it is hard for me to put the Paradox trilogy down, it allows me to play a little more right but not straight up the boards, when it’s reading early I know it is time for me to move.  With the Paradox Trilogy cover and box finish I haven’t made a huge move left because I still want the Paradox Trilogy to dig in and finish when it gets to the pins.  Playing various angles from game one-three I can see the finish is very good no matter how much or how little lane is covered.
