I recently bought and really like some of the international stuff(Smart Zone I & II, Explosion Zone I).  All the ones that I got use coverstocks that are different than the regular line of B stuff.  What would the most similar coverstock be compared to the ones used on the international balls?

SS Reactive
SS eXtreme
Powerkoil 22

Here is a link to the International Section of the Brunswick ball section.

http://bbb.brunswickbowling.com/consumer/Products/line.cfm?line_id=47

It gives the description of the balls you are talking about as well as the coverstocks.
 
These balls are designed specifically for the International Market and is a different division in the R and D dept. They are generally hybrids of other current Brunswick coverstocks. We do not keep up with the International releases.
Hope this helps

Thanks for the reply Ric!  I had checked out the website and was really just curious about if these coverstocks were something we might be seeing soon in the regular line or if they just had different names for the same coverstock.  I would hope that if something does really well in the international line that it would be incorporated somehow into the regular B line.

I am loving the Explosion II, it gives me good length and makes a very smooth move.  It carries great on everything I have thrown it on except for the occasional 8 pin(Lefty)
