Fire Road 55 x 4 x 75

The FIRE ROAD uses a modified version of the symmetrical Inverted Fe3 weight block first used in the VICTORY ROAD, with the modification upping the differential about 15 percent.
The FIRE ROAD uses a pearl R2X coverstock.
I drilled it with a 4 inch pin as I wanted to have some flare to help smooth out the overall reaction. The Fire Road is clean through the fronts with good midlane roll with a strong move
Off of the spot. Not a skid/flip reaction that you would see with the Victory Road Pearl.
This reaction creates great carry, as the ball has more of a rolling motion into the pins vs a skid/flip entry angle.
This ball is great on your typical house shot as it kinda of blends out the early wet/dry condition.
On sport and PBA conditions the Fire Road does need a little friction up front to keep from going a little too long. But on the shorter patterns it works very well, good control as which you need on those lane patterns.
The Fire Road is a ball that is stronger overall than the Victory Road Pearl but weaker than Marvel Pearl.
PAP 4 up 1-1/4
