Overview

Not a dull, early rolling ball, the Ion Max Pearl wears a polished pearl cover that skids through the front of the lane and then grips the midlane. A Power Edge finish sharpens its turn at the breakpoint.

Length plus a quicker breakpoint response gives it angle on medium and drier lanes. Core specs are not shown, so check them before adding it next to similar balls.

Who it's for

Bowlers on medium or drier patterns who want angle at the breakpoint suit this ball. Heavy oil players should look at a sanded or stronger piece.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Clean through the front
  • Quick breakpoint response
  • Controlled through the pins
  • Wide range of conditions
Cons
  • Core specs not listed
  • Less early traction on heavy oil
  • Drilling not mentioned

Performance notes

Polish lets the ball skid through the front, saving energy until it meets friction midlane. The pearl cover then grips and turns quickly at the breakpoint. Lane oil volume decides how far it travels before turning.
