Tropical Surge – Emerald/Charcoal

Brunswick introduces the Crown 78U, giving bowlers a new urethane option approved for use in most USBC national competitions. In addition to these regulations, Brunswick recognizes the use of harder urethane balls on tougher tournament patterns and for high rev rates. They developed a new urethane ball with more flare potential and more dynamic numbers to meet the needs of those bowlers. The new Crown 78U features the Tiered Hexagon core shape from the Crown Victory, a higher RG and medium differential core, providing bowlers with an option not currently available on the market. The harder 78 durometer urethane cover has limitations that a more dynamic core helps alleviate, creating a new level of ball motion option for bowlers using urethane.

The 900 Global Ember is a high-performance pearl bowling ball designed for medium oil conditions, featuring the stable Magna A.I. Core and an aggressive RB82 Pearl Reactive coverstock, offering a cleaner look through the front of the lane with a strong, sharp backend reaction and great continuation, making it a perfect complement to the smoother Cove ball for adding punch when lanes transition.

The Infinity Quest is the third Brunswick ball to use the asymmetrical Infinity core shape, along with the original Infinity and the Beyond Infinity. It features the HK22C – EVO Solid coverstock that was previously used on the Mesmerize. This aggressive shell is finished with 1500 SiaAir and Crown Factory Compound, giving the ball much more length than the Mesmerize. In our testing, the Infinity Quest performed its best when we were able to play straighter in the front part of the lane as opposed to starting farther left and going away from the headpin. When we had to move inside later in our test sessions, all three bowlers struggled with the reaction shape they were seeing, as the ball wanted to start early and then didn’t have enough downlane continuation. We liked it much more on the fresh when playing straighter, which then let us switch into the Combat or the Vaporize to have more downlane angle and go around the lane more on the burn.

The Brunswick Rhino Metallic Blue/Black is an entry-level reactive bowling ball known for its great value, offering a blend of power and control, ideal for new bowlers or those wanting a reliable, predictable ball for medium-dry lanes, featuring an R-16 reactive coverstock and a light bulb core for smooth length and strong backend action. It's praised for being easy to handle, hooking just enough without being too sensitive to lane conditions, making it excellent for building confidence.
