Break Down
Drilling: Pin under middle finger CG in palm
Surface: OOB
Lane condition: 41ft THS
Description: The Break Down brings back the historic technology of the Break series from several years ago, but it has a tweak to the ball dynamics to make the ball very suitable for tougher/flatter/broken down lane conditions. This will be THE tournament ball of choice for me. I haven't seen a ball with the mix of an asymmetric core and so call "weak" RG and diff numbers before, but it provides a very unique roll and very controllable motion. This ball does the one thing that I look for when picking out a ball for tougher lane conditions; it seems to "hug" the lane as it goes toward the pins. Nothing every too dramatic, very predictable, strong motion through the pins, keeps pins low. Hard to argue with the success of this ball line in the past, and if you want to find a ball that will be great on tougher lanes and broken down shots, this is definitely one to consider.
