Adhesion Promotion technology works at the molecular level to enlarge the cover’s contact footprint: more traction in oil, better oil absorption as the pattern breaks down, and a cover built to resist micro-cracking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hybrid blend pairs solid traction on the fresh with pearl-like energy retention through the mids. At a 1500 Abralon finish it reads the midlane with authority while staying cleaner through the front than the original Black Dragon solid. USBC approved, and tuned for consistent, predictable motion rather than simply more hook.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Inside Bowling","offers":[{"title":"16 lb","offer_id":46145311113450,"sku":"SWGBDH16","price":159.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15 lb","offer_id":46145311146218,"sku":"SWGBDH15","price":159.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14 lb","offer_id":46145311178986,"sku":"SWGBDH14","price":159.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"13 lb","offer_id":46145311211754,"sku":"SWGBDH13","price":159.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 lb","offer_id":46145311244522,"sku":"SWGBDH12","price":159.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2327\/7029\/files\/swag-black-dragon-hybrid-bowling-ball.png?v=1784419431","url":"https:\/\/www.insidebowling.com\/products\/swag-black-dragon-hybrid","provider":"Inside Bowling","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
