About this ball

The Reality quickly became known as a ball that was a big asymmetric, but didn’t really act like one. It was surprisingly clean and responsive for being a 900 Series ball. The Altered Reality expands upon the unique shape that the Reality created by offering a broader spectrum of use on medium to heavy conditions.DISTURBANCE ASYMMETRIC CORE: The Disturbance Asymmetric Core utilizes a modified scutoid geometric shape. This eccentric shape has a base of 6 sides and an apex of 5 sides. The elimination of the 6th side as you move vertically up the weight block creates the perfect amount of asymmetry. This shape also provides the RG/Diff values that all bowlers demand by utilizing a smaller amount of space within the outer core. When you put all of this together…we have created a truly unique and never before seen reaction to the 900 Series.S84 Response Coverstock: The S84 Response Cover, with its special chemical composition that creates up to 20% larger pore sizes, has been altered to a 1500-grit polished finish. The Reality, even though it was a cleaner dull ball, is still very strong in the front part of the lane. The Altered Reality will clear the heads much easier and save more energy for the back part of the lane. Even though the cover is a pearl and polished, the larger pore size allows for more traction in the oil than traditional pearl covers.
