Drilling: 5x4 pin over ring, small weighthole on PAP
I was looking for a ball to play on our house pattern when the regular Dirty Bomb was not getting there or was too snappy on the backend. The solid coverstock of this ball when combined with the drill pattern has given me a perfect reaction.
What I see from this ball is a long smooth and sweeping hook. There is no skid/snap here. Even if there is free hook to the right, this ball will not snap up. This ball has a reaction very similar to the old axis weighted Hammers from the early days of urethane. I cannot say enough about the smoothness of this ball. I am in love!
Perhaps the best asset of this ball though is the hit. I have thrown a lot of the Buzzsaws and a lot of the rest stuff on the market but this ball just flat blows pins away. Light, flush or heavy this ball gives you a 95% chance of striking if you tag the headpin. My in-house customers are not the type to spend the $200 on a bowling ball but after using mine in leagues for the last 2-3 weeks I have sold 4 of them in house.
In short, excellent job Lane 1!!! I guess the 3000+ balls you guys sold are a testament to what you have done with the last 2 releases.

Anyway the review of the ball--basically the ball out of the box does the same thing that every reactive bowling ball does (goes long and hits hard). But with regular balls after 20-30+ games most reactive balls tend to lose this reaction. With this ball I have found that it loses some skid, but without a doubt it has a predictable and good reaction at the end of the lane.
I have limited knowledge about specs. The pin is inside of 2 inches from CG and have the pin located just outside of the ring finger.

Needless to say, it’s been a new beginning for me. The grip so far has been helpful in a lot of other ways besides offering a new method of releasing the ball with less effort. Because it’s harder to squeeze the ball, the new grip provides a more natural grip on the ball, making for less strain on an already beaten set of wrist, elbow and shoulder tendons. I also noticed that a large bruised callous on the base of my ring finger is almost gone. Note that I’ve been bowling at the same intensity and frequency now as I was before I made those changes. I’ve even noticed my league averages went up a couple pins, an indication of successful changes.
It's the beginning of a new era of my bowling endeavors. So far - so good.
Richie Sposato from Lane #1 in Syracuse notes that the Dirty Bomb Hybrid as a new beginning of a new era of coverstock technology. The folks at Lane #1 have instituted "gene technology" in the formulation of resins, creating a new Hybrid™ RadioActive™ 18 reactive resin coverstock, blending together the proven power and energy of the Brunswick Powerkoil 18™ resin used in some of the early Zone series resin bowling balls with the smooth, predictable, and durable RadioActive™ Activator™ resin, found in the latest Inferno line of balls. Creating the most powerful, versatile, longest lasting reactive resin on the planet, and in combination of Lane #1’s explosive Dirty Bomb core, Lane #1 gives bowlers the most destructive ball they’ve have ever had at their disposal.
The Dirty Bomb Hybrid is a five piece, polished, purple-black ball in which the core is Lane #1’s patented Diamond Core containing a high density flip block and mini nugget. Lane #1’s specifications of the Dirty Bomb Hybrid include a hook rating of 95 out of 120, a backend hook potential of 80%, and a flare potential of 6â€. Pin placement of the Dirty Bomb Hybrid is at 12 O’clock with most balls having pins ranging from 1†to 4†from the center of gravity. The Dirty Bomb Hybrid comes in 13,14,15, and 16 pound weights.
Matt Yablonsky from Matt’s Pro Shop inside Rapids Bowling Center in Niagara Falls drilled this Dirty Bomb Hybrid with a 3 ½ X 4 ½ drilling, putting the pin beneath the ring finger and placing a large extra hole at 4:30 through my axis line. There was 3/8 ounce positive side and ¼ finger weights after the 1 1/8 hole was drilled. The Hybrid started with about 4 ounces of top weight, a bit on the heavy side for a leveraged drilling.
After the Dirty Bomb Hybrid was drilled, I took it to lanes 3-4 at Rapids where our Wednesday night semi-classic doubles league team was bowling. The condition was a 21 milliliter, 42’ house pattern with a good amount of oil that was carried down, as a four man league bowled before our league. During practice, I was playing around the track area between the third and fourth arrow. In practice, I didn’t have to work real hard to get the Dirty Bomb Hybrid down the lane, as it traveled clean through the heads and midlane, surprisingly given the amount of depletion of oil from the heads.
I maintained a fairly good look with the Dirty Bomb Hybrid from that area, and when we started bowling for score, I struck six out of 12 for a 215 game, with just a couple plaquey 10s and a few smash 4s. It was obvious that the Dirty Bomb Hybrid was either a little too much for the transition, or not quite enough, so it was time for the Dirty Bomb Hybrid to take its place in the bag.
A couple days later at Tonawanda Bowling Center, I brought out the Dirty Bomb Hybrid again, on a similar 21 mililiter x 42’ pattern, this time a fresh lay-down of oil. The middle of the lane was more saturated than the first night I used it at Rapids. Utilizing the Dirty Bomb Hybrid playing the same deep line between the third and fourth arrow, I seemed to get a little more flip and set in the back ends, and as the night went on, the massive angle at the back end mellowed to a roll-out shape, never missing the pocket flush, and except for a few smash 10s and an occasional swish 7, I rolled 255, 245, and 268 for a 768 series. Consider the fact that this second ball test with the Dirty Bomb Hybrid was during a session of the every-other-Saturday-Night mixed couples league with my wife, she was a very happy camper that the Dirty Bomb Hybrid helped me do the job of bowling well and keeping my marriage intact another evening! =)
On this pattern, I appeared to get a smooth and aggressive hooking action from the Dirty Bomb Hybrid. The look I get from this ball is very close to the Faball Hammer from the 1980s. A review of the Dirty Bomb Hybrid at another bowling ball website confirms my findings about this ball having the same kind of reaction.
On what kind of pattern would I suggest this Dirty Bomb Hybrid on? Any pattern that is a little tighter than what a bowler would roll a Dirty Bomb or another all around ball on. It’s a very clean ball through the heads and the mids for an aggressive ball. I can imagine the Dirty Bomb Hybrid to be a sweet hooker when scuffed up with a scotch brite pad or a piece of 400-600 grit sandpaper. I like mine on the out-of-the-box shiny side, so I’ll keep it that way. Bowlers with practically any kind of hand will find success with the Dirty Ball Hybrid. From my experience, Lane 1 bowling balls set the standard for versatility.
Thanks go out to Rich Sposato, CEO of Lane #1 for the complementary issue of The Dirty Bomb Hybrid, tons of shout-outs go out to Matt Yablonsky for taking the time in mapping and drilling the Dirty Bomb Hybrid, and Len Pimm and his staffs at Rapids Bowling Center in Niagara Falls and Tonawanda Bowling Center in Tonawanda in providing the facilities and oiling specifications.

This ball is a big disappointment, unfortunately I read some reviews here. The ball is a 15# drilled label leverage. It hits real solid on the brooklyn side in the pocket can be effective, but very temperamental. Does not carry the light hits as stated by some reviewers. Leaves corners pins and nine pins. The 4 pin should also be mentioned. This is definitely not a miracle ball as Lane stated. It is no better than any I have ever owned. I wish I had never been so gullible to have wasted my money on it. It is a great spare ball, which you will be doing if you buy this ball. I think Storm rules I will never again waste money on a Lane way to expensive for what you get. They are already selling used on ebay.

On the house pattern (10 to 10 taper 32' buffed to 40) the ball floats through the heads easily with great recovery on the backend with both 0 and 45 degree tilt. It does tend to overreact with the 45 degree tilt. It recovers easily when thrown wide and hold when tugged. As the night goes on, the ball does get sensitive to carrydown on the inside line and does not recover as well with the o degree tilt.
On the Cameleon pattern (New HPL-9000)the ball allows for ease down the lane with great recovery if the axis is tilted to 45 degrees. It doesnot have enough bite with the 0 degree tilt to recover and drive from the outside.
Overall: An easy ball with this drilling to get through the heads with good recovery on the backend with the axis tilt. The cover doesn't seem to allow for the more foreward roller to recover well. If you can change and manage hand positin, this is a ball to consider.

ME: lefty, tweener, 14.5-16.5 mph ball speed at the pins
BALL: 14.2 lbs, 3" pin, 2.64 oz. top weight.
drill: leverage drill, here is the layout:
........._P.._..... Pin-to-PAP: 3 3/8"
........(_).(_)..... X-Hole 3/4" out from PAP
..XH..................
..................
......CG................
............__......
...........(__)..
HOUSE #1: syn. heads, medium THS pattern with light carrydown.
the ball was thrown first in out of box condition. the ball was drilled to read the midlane and arc instead of snap. extra care was made to drill the fingers deeper to eliminate finger weight.
i planned to use this ball on heavy lights to heavy mediums. so this pattern would prove ideal: a THS with a bit of use. 35 feet with 4 feet of buff, the volume was on the lower side of moderate. after throwing the ball for about 10 frames, i found myself coming inside already due to depletion of oil in the heads: this ball was definitely rolling it up!
as for the ball... once i got used to its roll and found a good line, it was MONEY. Tha Driller and the alley general manager had heard about the Hybrid we just punche up, and wanted to see it go down the lane. i was rather proud that they wanted to watch me throw it! so, as soon as i got comfortable, they came over and took a gander.
the first thing i noticed was its smooooooooooth reaction to oil-buffer-dry. it cleared the oil, flared, tightened its arc and went into a murderous forward roll. when i say roll, i mean as in forward roll while peaking in power. it hits the pins with a definitive blast: please read my other reviews, i have never seen a ball with this type of pop. it hit and DUMPED the pins into the pit. the roll was the most insane thing: as soon as you saw the thumb hole tighten down, it went into it signature roll.
THE HIT! pocket hits were 10-in-the-pit. light hits carried, heavy hits carried, low pin-deck messengers everywhere... i was dually impressed.
Lane manager: "that ball has a killer roll"
from him, that is saying alot. i have no real way to just explain the way this ball hits: when it rolls up it just trashes the rack. as soon as i released the ball and nailed my mark, i knew it was a strike just by a clean release and hitting the target. due to its arc, the reaction is consistent and not jumpy.
HOUSE #2: syn. lanes, burnt up heads, carrydown.
the ball proved semi-effective in this situation. it didn't mind some carrydown at all, but was of course affected by the toasted heads. the heads were spotty and tracked-out, the ball was rolling up about 45 feet, and just rolling thru the carrydown. the hit was decent, but you could tell it was burnt up by the time it got to the pocket (weak 7s, 2 7-9s). in this case, out came the polished Golden Nugget and pocket demolition resumed.
HOUSE #3: syn. heads/wood backends, 38 foot THS, 4 foot buffer, 2nd shift.
i polished the ball and took it out for some REAL break-in, the 8 game variety. the shot is long, the out of bounds is deep, the oil goes to 7 board... its about as tough as a "THS" can get. after 6 frames, the ball was doing exactly what i wanted: over 17 board out to 10, and it got into that "signature" roll. after the first three, i rolled 5 consecutive games over 200, the lowest on the totem pole being a 209. the 5 game average was 224.2, 8 game average was 216.9 (the three being 169-221-198). by the end, i had moved in 4 boards, and moved my mark 3 boards, still slashing the pocket.
just as before, if the ball came off my hand correctly, it was LIGHTS OUT.
is the ball responsible for such insane scores? to an extent, yes. the smooth, powerful roll made for easy adjustments: no skid-snap reaction with an easily readable arc makes for a GOOD, consistently reacting ball.
PROS:
- INSANE power when hitting the pocket in its roll. just devastating.
- a cakewalk to read its reaction, so it's easy to adjust.
- handles carrydown with ease
- the 'signature' roll will turn heads. i have already have more than enough comments.
- versatile: as long as enough oil is out there, i can stroke it up 9 board, or apply more hand and swing it just left of 4th arrow on the same shot.
CONS:
- not a dry lane ball
- skids thru oil
- will 'check up' early on burnt heads.
i LOVE this ball. it is my benchmark, i am going to buy another and drill it somewhat less aggressive. without bias towards lane #1, this is pretty much the best ball i have ever thrown.

Two Handed style (Right).
medium speed
medium to high revs
Ave 203
I've only had this ball for about a month, and because of where I live there is hardly ever any reason to use it, except when a tournament is on. Even then around these parts I rarely need such a ball as this (I live in a part of Australia where oil is something off a chicko roll..well ok I admit some centres are ok here volume wise). Because of this, it's had about 15 games thrown on it. But all I can say is wow - what a hit. It hits the deck so hard.
This is a very reliable ball. If you throw it out it will recover very strongly. If you hit the pocket flush you can turn and walk before you see the pins fall such is my confidence in it's hit. If I hit light, more often than not I'll still carry, and if I hit on the high side of flush, it will just anhialate the deck. This ball has a really strong roll, I love it. On the heavier patterns I am able to throw it straight up the boards even as a two handed bowler.
My ball has a pin out, distance approx 3 inches. Set out much like this:
-------------O O-P------
------------------------
----------------------PAP
---------------CG-------
---------------X--------
P = Pin
X = Balance hole
I have no thumbhole because I am two handed, that's why the balance hole is there.
This is a great Lane#1 ball, and it was my first. It won't be my last. If you're looking for a ball that will hook on medium to heavy patterns, especially if you throw some hand, I think that this ball will suit you well.

I have my HDB-16lb. since January and I can only say you have to get it if you are looking for mid-oil condition ball because you will get alot of stires, and not #10 or #7 pins left.
I have won more than $3000 with it!!!

Ball Facts:
Weight: 15lbs 4oz
Top Wght: 3.2oz
Pin to CG = 3.75"
Ball Drilling
Pattern for drilling: Modified stacked from the drill sheet (Lane #1)
Pin and CG was placed 4.25 from my PAP with a weight hole in the thumb positive quadrant. This hole is 5/8" dia and 3" deep pitched toward the ball center. Not sure of the static weights.
Bowler Specs:
Style: Power Tweener
Speed: 13-15mph at the arrows
Revs: Above average - lots of hand
For more info check out my profile...
The THS at my home house is medium at best, layed down to 33ft buffed to 36ft. 10-10 oiling and outside of that is sahara dry. I bowl in an 8:30pm second shift league. Lanes are oiled at 3:30pm. These lanes are the new Brunswick Pro-Anvil synthetic lanes and approaches.
Picked the ball up right before league and had no practice before hand other than 3 or so balls on each lane in warm-ups. Didn't have a good reaction with it until the last ball. Not being comfortable with it yet most times new balls don't work well the first few times out. This one held it's own.
Generally I average 190-195 and didn't want to let the team down but I had to use it. For the night I ended up 40-50 pins over average for the night. Too bad this was the last night of league... Arrrrgh Now I have to wait until August for more pin destruction.
Line played during the night was 18 arrows to 10 for about a game and a half. Moved inside gradually till the end of the night to about 22-10 as they dried out. After league I experimented a little 25-12 flush. Moved more inside 40 at the line 27-28 arrows to about 13-15 flush. Moved outside 10 and the ball
screamed toward the 7 pin. No oil at all there. Mine likes oil. Doesn't like dry. But the ball isn't snappy off the transition... its really smooth, It may ARC stronger but not by any means a snap. The last two games were 225 and 256 even on dry conditions. Left two 9 pins the second game, again my fault. Too
much hand was the culprit this time...
Most reviews I have read for this ball say you toss it wide you don't get recovery. WRONG, I got plenty. Any time I tagged the headpin (light, flush, even a tad heavy) 10 in the pit. Tug the ball a little it holds
and hits extremely hard. Send it wide and you think it isn't coming back.... wham another strike. First impressions of this ball were FANTASTIC. The ball has a smooth HARD arc to the pocket. I personally was not effected by any trackdown at all. It has an extremely heavy roll and pin crushing power on the
backends. I did leave one weak 10 pin all night - which was entirely my fault. Everyone fluffs one occasionally. I would highly recommend this ball to anyone. Looking forward to adding more of these GEMS (diamonds) to my arsenal SOON.
P.S. I do not work for Lane #1 and I am not a staffer, just another bowler looking to score better. With this ball I see a much higher average my future. Any questions on future performance feel free to PM me, I'll be happy to answer anything I can answer.

This ball was used on a variety of conditions and worked well on all. Also used at ABC Nationals. This ball would be a good benchmark ball for anyone because it is so versatile. Does not like the dry though.
The most distinct aspect of this ball is the amazing roll the ball gets into after the breakpoint. Almost as though the ball is rolling downhill to the pins. It keeps the pins low and basically nothing is left after it hits.

16LBS----2 3/4" pin----3.6 oz top weight--OOB surface which is polished.
Lanes---wood with Guardian applied.
Ball speed---15-16 MPH
Style----stroker
PAP----5 1/4" over and 7/16th" up
Drilling---label leverage---pin below and to the right of the ring finger with the Cg in the midline and just above the thumb.
This drilling gives me easy length and a hard backend arc with plenty of pop to take out the ten. . You can swing it when the lanes allow it,and it recovers well if you get a little wide. A slight tug will carry the ten out. Light hits send messengers all over the place.
It doesn't like carrydown,and when it finds this it simply can't finish because of the high top weight and drilling which is as above.I put it away then and pull out another ball.
Overall,a good benchmark ball for me. I'm impressed with the easy care of the coverstock. So far I've got around 60 games on it with some light tracking beginning to show up. I've talked with the pro shop operator and we'll probably resurface it in a week or two.
A definite must have for an arsenal..................

Reaction
First time out with this ball after being redrilled rico was a success. It was very even rolling and had a nice strong arc backend. Not the snap it had on the previous drill. I was unaware, however, that there was carrydown present and this ball just powered through the stuff like it wasn't there. Just tamed down the backend slightly. The hit and carry is out of this world during that first experimental period and I was able to string 17 strikes-in-a-row. That hooked me.
Besides looking sweet going down the lane with the red and yellow logos, the ball, on fresh oil w/ no carrydown, still wanted to snap pretty good. Much more controllable yet still had a very strong backend. This is my first Lane1 ball and it certainly will not be my last. That much I can tell. Those looking for a strong ball with a strong backend in the Lane#1 products should give the Hybrid Dirty Bomb a try.

The drill: "Thumb Leverage" layout on Lane #1 drill sheet. On this ball, pin is above the bridge and CG is almost due east of the thumb hole. Works out to a 4.25 x 3.75 drill for me. Finish is box.
Me: PAP 4 over 3/8 up, tweener revs, good speed, good circumference coverage
---
Bought this ball to test side-by-side with a Dirty Bomb and some of my other Lane #1 Diamond- and WAS-cored gear. I wasn't terribly enthused with the original Dirty Bomb, which was drilled stacked with short pin-to-PAP and CG-to-PAP numbers, so I decided to do something different here.
I settled on the "Thumb Leverage" layout because, with this ball having a 5-inch pin, it would allow me to use a layout that I've often used on other companies' gear with similar RG and diff numbers. The pin ended up over the bridge and the CG next to the thumb on the strong side.
I like this ball's reaction much better than my DB, but it is an odd reaction. Even though the ball was left in box condition (a matte finish with no polish), this ball is actually angular. I have rarely seen solid reactives that can be angular on anything other than short, high-volume patterns, but this ball is truly angular on the patterns I tested it upon.
The first pattern was a medium-light modified THC without super-dry outsides, and about 37 feet in length. On this pattern, the ball was good for about the first half of a block on the fresh. Then it just got too aggressive in the front part of the lane.
The second pattern was a medium- to medium-heavy volume, semi-flat shot with good oil outside 10. On this pattern, the HDB shined. Either the core performance or the drill (or a combination of the two) allowed the ball to glide through the heads before picking up in the backend.
Like the DB, the HDB has a different roll characteristic than Lane #1's Diamond and WAS cores. Not only is the movement more angular, but the ball seems to make a different motion through the pins and the hit and carry are different.
Like most of my other Lane #1 gear, the HDB took well to changes in hand positions, speed and line changes. It is much better than the original DB in that regard. The cover appears to be a better candidate for surface prep changes.
However, the ball comes up short when compared against the Diamond and WAS balls, in my opinion, primarily from a carry standpoint and an oil-handling standpoint. The Enriched Uranium, for instance, handles oil better than this ball does for me. The DB and HDB take longer to master, but if you need a different look from standard Lane #1 stuff yet want to stick within the Lane #1 company, these might work for you. The summary:
Positives: Tunable cover, Gets through oil in the heads well without burning up, consistent move off the dry.
Negatives: Doesn't move as much overall in oil as people might expect (or need), carry below average for Lane #1, can be a handful to learn especially if you're used to Lane #1's other cores.
Overall: Better than the Dirty Bomb for what it's designed to do, but if you truly need something for heavy oil, look at some of Lane #1's other, newer offerings.
