THIS BALL IS RETIRED AND NOT AVAILABLE FOR SALE

Turn up the heat with the new Tribal Fire. Engineered for light to medium oil, the Tribal Fire features the Halogen weight block and Fusion Hybrid Reactive cover technology. This is the first time a hybrid version of this cover stock has been released.  

The Halogen weight block was first used in the original silver Tribal, which was in Ronnie Russell’s bag when he recently won the PBA Bear Open. This design provides a 2.55 RG and .037 differential to provide length and moderate track flare.

The new hybrid version of Fusion reactive cover stock allows the Tribal Fire to read the lane a touch earlier and provide a smoother motion. The finish is 5000 Grit LSP (Laser Scan/Polished).  

For the typical bowler, the Tribal Fire provides the perfect combination of length and response to friction on light to medium oil conditions. It reads the pattern well to make a move at the right spot down the lane and retains energy for outstanding continuation.

    Great ball

    This ball is simply a monster this is one of my most aggressive balls works really well when the oil is heavy to medium but when dry this thing will take off on you if you're not careful

    I would recommend this to a friend
