Description: Take your bowling game to a state of Ultimate Nirvana! The Brunswick Ultimate Nirvana bowling ball features the Nirvana Ultra Low RG core and surrounds it with the ECS (Enhanced Composite Segmentation) Hybrid coverstock. The ECS Hybrid coverstock technology allows this ball to produce a powerful down lane motion and a wider sweet spot to eliminates the need for a lot of adjustments. This technology also produces a quicker refresh rate and an extended performance life for the coverstock. The core is a single density rounded elliptical inner core that is uniquely created to optimize ball motion and allow various drilling options to gain pin action and higher scores. This ball is finished with a 4000 grit Siaair Micro Pad that gives it added length through the front of the lane with exceptional backend continuation on medium to oily lane conditions.

The new ECS Hybrid coverstock is Brunswick’s latest advancement in performance enhancing technology. ECS expands the soft segments of the polymer chain producing improved friction and wider sweet spot resulting in fewer adjustments. ECS technology generates a faster refresh rate and a longer performance life for the coverstock. Paired with the Nirvana Ultra Low RG core, the Ultimate Nirvana provides effortless length through the heads with extraordinary backend continuation on medium oily to oily lane conditions..
COMMENTS
This hybrid asymmetrical ball is very clean through the heads with a continuous strong motion on the backend. This ball has a very strong backend motion and is very predictable. I really like this ball and it has quickly become the first ball out of my bag.

The Ultimate Nirvana is a one of a kind. This ball is amazing and very versatile. The ultimate nirvana is cleaner than the original nirvana but more continuous on the backend. My layout is used on medium to heavy volume and is clean and picks up the midlane a lil quicker and continues through the backend. The Ultimate Nirvana is a great benchmark ball that can be used on a variety of lane conditions.

Reaction: The Ultimate Nirvana is made with the new ECS (Enhanced Composite Segmentation) Hybrid Coverstock which is used for added length and pop on the backend. For me this ball allows me to open my angles a lot more than the original Nirvana. This ball is perfect for when the original Nirvana starts to hook early and you need more angle on the back part of the lane. This is yet another ball from Brunswick that does not quit when it enters the pocket. This ball goes through the front part of the lane very smoothly and reads the mid lane very well. Once the ball makes the turn towards the pocket there is no quit in it. It will continue to drive through the pins leaving no chance of any of them to stand. Compared to the original Nirvana on a typical 41 foot 10:1 house shot this ball hooks about 2-3 boards more. With the original Nirvana I have to play a little straighter so the ball doesn’t lose energy when entering the pocket. With the new Ultimate Nirvana I can move left and let the ball go right and not worry about it losing any energy once it makes the move towards the pocket.
Overall: This is a must have ball from Brunswick. This is a benchmark ball to start every night with. This will give you more overall pop than the original Nirvana and won’t quit on you at all. This ball works best on medium to oily lanes but will still allow you to open the lane up even with the heavier oil. Along with the new Vintage Danger Zone this is a great 1-2 combination to have in your bag.

It is amazing how clean ball gets threw the heads. The back end is phenomenal. No loss of power on the back end. Ball was exiting the deck in the 9 pin position. My Nirvana is drilled the same way my ultimate Nirvana is. When my Nirvana starts to check up early. I can go to my Ultimate playing the same line with no fear of overreaction or not recovering. The ball is a beast. First day i threw this ball was in a Tournament this last weekend. I shot 2195 Scratch for 9 games. Including winning the doubles Championship. This ball is a must for anybodies arsenal. Brunswick has yet another winner.

The Ultimate Nirvana for me is longer and more angular on the back than the original Nirvana. I can play them from the same mark on the lane just with different reactions. The original Nirvana reads the midlane a lot quicker and has a strong move to the pocket where as the Ultimate Nirvana seems to get a few feet farther down the lane with a more angular move to the pocket. Once my Nirvana starts to hook early or lose energy I can go right to the Ultimate Nirvana. I can use my Ultimate Nirvana on a wider variety of lane conditions than my original Nirvana. Both are excellent balls.

The Brunswick Ultimate Nirvana bowling ball features the Nirvana Ultra Low RG core and surrounds it with the E.C.S. (Enhanced Composite Segmentation) Hybrid coverstock.
For this layout, I decided to go 45 x 5 x 30 with a WH on the P.A.P. This layout has worked well for me with other hybrid balls (MM Genius, ReaxGusto) so I felt comfortable using it with this piece.
The reaction was smooth thru the fronts and rolled of the spot with authority and power. The color combination is definitely eye catching and I have gotten lots of compliments. The first series out was really good and even with 3 opens I bowled a respectable 714 series. I you have never taken a look at the Brunswick brand you really should take a look. You would be cheating yourself if you did not.

Brunswick Ultimate Nirvana
Bowler Stats:
Speed: 18-19mph
Rev Rate: 400-450mph
Axis Tilt: 7degrees
Axis Rotation: 30-60 degrees
Layout: 45 degrees by 5†by 50 degrees (small hole 1†down VAL)
Intent: My original Nirvana was a little strong in the earlier part of the lane than what’s usable for me on medium or medium-heavy patterns. I didn’t want to change the surface to keep for the really heavy stuff. The Ultimate Nirvana’s new hybrid cover is what I’m looking for in terms of a little more downlane push but similar shape.
On the lanes: The Ultimate Nirvana has shown to be a great compliment to the original with the similar shape I expected, but without the early read that the original could generate at times. With similar layout, I have my Ultimate being about 1-2 boards less than the original with that being due to the delayed read. With this extra length comes extra versatility.
Final Thoughts: The original Nirvana had tons of success from its strength throughout the whole lane. Bowlers will love the Ultimate Nirvana as a great compliment that will allow them to stay with a bigger ball for slightly longer, either to start out with or as a step down from the original Nirvana. I’d place this as a medium-heavy ball that can sneak its way into the heavy or medium ranges.

I laid out my Ultimate Nirvana with a 50X4.75X35 layout. This put the pin just above the inside of my ring finger and the mass bias a few inches left of my thumb with a small P3 hole. I am not usually a fan of this many colors swirled into a bowling ball as it reminds me of how I am old and how weak my release has become, but this one phases together nicely. The major like I have with this ball compared to its predecessor is how much more defined the break point seems to be on this ball. I love to see the ball stand up (again, showing my age). For me this ball is really only a little cleaner than the original (both with box finish), but I get a good four boards stronger at the break point which really helps my carry when I play more towards the middle of the lane. I will primarily use this ball to compliment my Mastermind Brainiac when it doesn’t quite hook enough, or when the original Nirvana doesn’t get the 10 out.

COMMENTS
Layout with pin 4.5" from PAP and just below the fingers, X-hole at P4 position. My initial impression was that I was surprised how easy the ball projected through the front half of lane. This ball gets nearly the same length as most pearl reactives, but the difference is once it finds friction. I find that it's a bit more forgiving if I miss outside (and the Ultimate somehow gets back to the pocket).
It's reaction is longer than the Nirvana and more angular, without being snappy late. It's very easy to add surface to this one without losing that aggressive move off the friction. I'm about 2 boards closer to friction with my feet vs. the Nirvana but handles more volume than the Brainiac, as an example. This could easily be the first ball out of the bag on most house shots. Very little deflection through the pin deck, so I leave more 9 pins than 10s, which can be a lifesaver when my spare game is on vacation for the night. Thanks Brunswick!!

Likes: Very clean through the front with strong backend motion
Dislikes: None
The Ultimate Nirvana is cleaner through the front part of the lane with a stronger motion down lane compared to the Nirvana. With the 4000 box surface, it still has enough surface to create traction in the oil because of the stronger ESC Hybrid coverstock. With the addition of the Hybrid coverstock to the lower RG Nirvana core, it will create more length through the fronts and more continuation downlane. I have used this ball on a house shot and it allowed me to play 15 to 5 to start, and I kept chasing it left as the lanes broke down (I had 265-228-290=783 in a 2nd shift league a week ago). I have also used it on sport shots which allows me to open up the lane and get a stronger motion down lane. With the pin under layout that I used, it allows me to have a smoother arcing type of motion with retention of energy to drive through the pins. If you are looking for a good ball to transition to when the Nirvana is starting to hook too much, the Ultimate Nirvana will do the job.
Here is a video of me throwing it:
-
I loved the original Nirvana so much that its always in my bag for every tournament. But there were limitations I felt I had with the ball. When I had to get in and open my angles up, I felt like I was only able to get so far in before the Original Nirvana began to struggle to get around the corner. In comes the Ultimate Nirvana. That problem is now solved. This ball comes in great when my Nirvana begins to get tired. This ball is more cleaner and more angular than the original nirvana. I have yet to find its limitations with this ball on a burn block!

Ultimate Nirvana
I drilled this ball 70 x 4 1/2 x 40 putting the pin above the fingers. The hybrid cover stock paired with the Nirvana Ultra Low RG core makes this ball get through the front easily, storing its energy for great continuation and consistency down lane. Drilling it with a pin up the ball still rolls on a very hard, smooth arc to the pocket, and drives through the pin deck. Adjustments with this ball are easier then most because of the predictability of its ball motion down lane. I absolutely love this ball and feel it matches up really well on almost all lane conditions.

Drilled my Ultimate Nirvana 55x5x45 (pin over bridge) as an option to give me the shape of my Nirvana but on normal volumes of oil.
The first thing that I noticed was how heavy it rolls in the midlane - like a true Brunswick ball, yet continues down the lane and keeps on rolling through the pins. The Ultimate Nirvana has a very strong cover that can handle med/heavy oil, yet gives me decent length with an average move off the back of the pattern. So far I have used it on 37' Broadway, a couple of THS but my best look has been on fresh lanes on 45' Route 66 where I had 300 my second game out crossing just left of 4 arrow out to 12.
In terms of strength the Ultimate is a couple of boards weaker than my Nirvana and Grudge, but by not being super dull out of box allows me to use this ball on a wider range of conditions. Against my symmetrics (Divas, Ridiculous), the Ultimate Nirvana allows me to move in an average 4 boards by being both stronger in cover strength and the core revving up a lot harder. The Ultimate Nirvana usually has me about 2 boards left of my Brainiac, Vandal or Melee Hook as it begins to roll up sooner.
The Ultimate Nirvana has the traction and hook to deal with all of my oil needs at the league and local level. Its heavy midlane roll and continuation down the lane allow me to take advantage of the friction as it develops, yet corner enough to chase the oil in for a couple of games. I prefer to be proactive by staying ahead of transition, so by the third game I typically want to start shelling down to my Pearl Asyms (Vandal) or my mid range symmetrics (Divas, Ridiculous) to continue to read the lane correctly.

I was really anticipating this release. After throwing the original I was looking for a stronger ball that was a bit cleaner. The Ultimate serves this purpose but still needs decent volume and length to be used the best.
I drilled mine 50x5x30. This gave me a little more length but the cover is so strong that I needed to add polish. Once I added polish I was able to use this more on the house condition. This ball does fit nicely in between the original Nirvana and the Brainiac. I look forward to using this more on a longer and heavier pattern to use this ball to its full ability
-
The Ultimate Nirvana is the new piece in the Hook Line. The new hybrid ECS composite coverstock is wrapping around the Nirvana core. That creates a more angular motion down lane and a lot of drive through the pin.
The reason why I chose the Ultimate Nirvana is because I want a strong asymmetrical ball with more control. That’s why I drilled it 60x5x70. Seriously, I never seen a ball that has so much drive through the pins like that ball. That’s kinda fascinating me. I adjust the surface 3 times to bowl on THS twice, Montreal 41’ once, the Sunset Strip once and the cover response very well to those changes.
If you think the original Nirvana was a great bowling ball, I dare you to try the new Ultimate Nirvana and you will not be disappointed.

The Composite Coverstock technology train continues! The Ultimate Nirvana is a longer and stronger version of the original Nirvana. The Nirvana is a great ball for oilier conditions but can be a bit early for our house shot. The Ultimate Nirvana is the answer for this situation. It recovers very well when missing right of target on the house shot and creates quite a bit of room. It excels as the games go on as you have to move further and further into the slickest part of the lane. The Ultimate Nirvana is about 2 and 1 stronger than the original and several feet longer. It has been a pleasure to throw and thus far it has shown to be every bit as durable as other Composite Cover balls. For a ball that hooks fairly soon it has quite a bit of down lane energy and really carries the pins well. League night is a lot of fun standing left and throwing right with this new beast! It is the total package as far as versatile, stronger equipment is concerned and will continue to get quite a bit of use. The Ultimate Nirvana combines overall hook and power into an attractive package that will work on a variety of medium to oily conditions.

I've used this ball primarily on WTBA Tokyo and Kegel Autobahn, both in the 42' - 44' range. Grips the midlane like snow tires, while skating through the heads cleanly. I have mine drilled pin above ring finger and have been able to use it on just about any pattern of medium length or greater.
It revs up nicely for me without hooking early or burning up at the pins. I've found on a fair amount of volume that I can start on the fresh with my original Nirvana, and switch to this ball once the transition happens. The ball motion for me is later than the original, but not much different in overall hook.
A good option to have in your bag.

The Ultimate Nirvana is the latest HP release from Brunswick. It’s the follow-up to the hugely popular Nirvana. I laid this one out a little different than what I normally do for strong Asymmetric bowling balls. I went pin down, CG kicked out about an inch off of midline, no balance hole. I wanted a true game 1 ball in my bag for the fresh and heavier shots where I needed the ball to pick up a little earlier. I got it haha! It’s about 3-4 feet earlier on the lane than the original Nirvana and it’s quite a bit stronger off the spot. It turned out to be great on spotty backends, allowing me a consistent read where my pin up Nirvana would flutter a little. Great choice for the fresh and heavier patterns. As with most strong surface equipment, maintain your cleaning and surface on this one as it does lane shine fairly quickly, although I haven’t noticed a decrease in reaction as of yet. Shows you how much oil it can soak up!

I have a 3.5x1.5x3.5 layout on my Ultimate Nirvana. I hit the surface with a 4000 pad and love the way this ball picks up the mid lane and still has a great backend motion. My first 3 series were 731, 771, & 785. Also shot 300 & 800 with it a few weeks later. Get your Ultimate Nirvana today!

70 x 5 x 35 (OOB Surface)
Personal Stats:
400-450 RPM
18-20 MPH
PAP - 5 5/8" over, 1" up
Axis Tilt - Estimated 8-12 Degrees
Current League Average: 238
Intended Use:
With the my go-to pin-up layout, I was looking for a motion that was complimentary to my original Nirvana. Strong asymmetric with a sharper motion from the layout.
Reaction:
Nailed the reaction I was looking for. The strong cover revs up well in the midlanes, but doesn't overhook too early, thanks to the layout. Gives me a nice medium-strong motion that has been great on both house patterns and flatter patterns when I want to be steeper though the front of the lane.
Overall:
I have used this ball a lot more than I thought I would. I normally can't use stronger asymettrics on house patterns because they burn up too much energy early, but the layout on this Ultimate Nirvana makes it a BEAST! This is definitely a ball that fits both the typical house bowler and the weekend warrior looking for a strong-medium ball to fill a hole in their arsenal. /font][/size]

This ball has become my benchmark ball. I added some polish to the box finish, and I've used a pretty standard pin above the ring finger drilling. I've used this consistently on the stone street pattern, and it is amazing. The ball is clean through the front of the lane, and makes an awesome turn off of the break point. The polish on mine seemed to make it all the more forgiving. It retains energy through the pins extremely well, and provides great pin carry. This is a home run ball for Brunswick. I don't see many bowlers that couldn't find a great use for the Ultimate Nirvana. It really is the perfect compliment to the original Nirvana or a ball such as the DV8 Grudge. When those balls are burning up, I can step right into the Ultimate Nirvana and keep striking.

Likes:low to med rev bowler, drilled an Ultimate Nirvana with the pin down using a dual layout of45x3 3/34x 60 with a P3 hole and this ball delivers in every way. drilled this for a very poor 40 ft house shot that outside 7 is out of bounds and my my favorite shot is in that area, so this ball allows me to move inside play around 10-12 and gives me the reaction I need for this shot. This ball is so clean up front, allows me to get the ball on my desired path, creates tremendous midlane energy makes the hook to roll transition as well as any ball I have every thrown in my 50+ years of bowling and the carry power exceeds all my expectations, I believe this is a great ball choice for most bowlers, find yourself a certified usbc ball fitter and you cannot go wrong with The Ultimate Nirvana

Comments: This ball is amazing, I was looking for a strong asymmetrical with a 4000 surface that blended out the lanes but was strong. This ball does all of that and more, I am able to start the night out with this ball and as the nighties on chase it to the inside and just keeps coming and never quits. This is the perfect benchmark ball foe med / heavy patterns. It to me has a little more length than the original and stronger on the backend. I have used this ball for just the last 3 weeks and it is tough to pry it out if my hands.
