Hi All,

I'm proud to present to you The Track Kinetic Pearl Video.

http://www.videoballreviews.com/kineticpearl.html

My Take on the Ball:

2 Words...Energy Retention, this ball is great at it!  Another ball that lets you stand right on/near the dry spot without worrying about the ball reading early, AND it gives you that big backend move alot of bowlers are looking for. This ball is longer than the Kinetic Energy and stronger in the backend.  Compared to the Original Kinetic, this ball comes close in its backend move, but it cant handle the oil an Original Kinetic can.  The 3 really complement each other nicely.

This ball does not like alot of oil OOB.  It was ok in carrydown, but there are better choices in the track lineup for carrydown...just get it to a dry spot and watch this thing make a big move in the backend.

As always, Comments and questions are welcomed!

Thanks for giving us a chance to finally see the pearl in action!  Out of the three, I have to say I'm the most fond of the Kinetic Energy.  However, I do see the possibilty of this replacing my Kinetic.  I'd probably go with a similar layout, or a bit weaker.

Was your video with the Pearl OOB, or did you change it up?

OOB

I almost always test a ball OOB, if i do change a surface on a ball i will always note it in the video.

Understood.

Have you done anything else with the Pearl since, i.e. layouts or surface?  Perhaps a cranker point of view?

I have not...the cranker in the Uprising video threw mine for a few shots (our spans are somewhat close)...with his speed he was able to get the ball downlane very easily, and the thing looked like it was on a string and someone pulled it left when it hit the dry...for both of us, the Kinetic pearl was cleaner and more angular in the backend than the Uprising.  I can see the Kinetic Pearl being a good go to when the Uprising starts reading the midlane a bit too soon...
