Ball Specs for Fortera Intrigue

Box Finish-500 Siaair Micro Pad:Royal Compound
RG-2.512 Diff.-0.050,Int. Diff.-.016
Color: Red Pearl/Black Solid


The Fortera Intrigue is a little earlier through the heads
than the Fortera Exile.The Fortera Hybrid cover create
a slightly earlier look through the midlane.
The Intrigue is less angular when it encounters friction at the backend
than the Exile
The Hybrid cover helps keep the Intrigue from
going to long, but has a early revving motion
of the Exile.

The ease through the heads helped store up axis rotation for
the backend without giving up much traction in the
midlane.

The aggressive move at the breakpoint sets up nicely for the
tremendous down lane recovery.

The core and cover combo allows the Fortera Intrigue to
quickly respond to the friction,and keep going when
other balls would be quitting and have a tendency to
stand up.

Going around the pattern is made a whole lot easier when
you know that the ball isn't going to roll-out.When
the ball does encounter friction is impressive
I feel that the Fortera Intrigue can be used as a heavy oil ball
for players with slower ball speed and a medium oil ball for
players with speed and higher revs.

In my opinion,the Intrigue is a very versatile ball.It
has the ability to handle shots pointed at the pocket from
five and in to the five arrow.

Interesting.

It's definitely a ball I like.

I havent used one...and I'm not in the market for new bowling balls for a year or so (except for maybe a 15lb spare ball in late 2015)...but I still like it.
