Bowling technology is always evolving, but sometimes a new innovation comes along that truly shakes up the game. The Origin, with its groundbreaking Ellipse asymmetrical weight block, introduces a concept never seen before in bowling: dual procession. While that may sound technical, the benefits it provides are easy to understand: more power, better continuation through the pins, and fewer weak hits.

What is Dual Procession?

Traditional bowling balls feature a single axis of rotation as they travel down the lane. This axis defines how the ball moves, hooks, and eventually rolls forward. In most asymmetric cores, once the ball reaches the final stages of its motion (the roll phase), it can begin to lose tilt and settle into a forward roll. This can sometimes lead to flat hits and inconsistent pin carry.

The Origin’s Ellipse weight block changes the game. It uses three alternating elliptical shapes inside the core, positioned at strategic angles to create what’s called dual procession. This means the ball doesn’t simply follow a single axis—it rotates along multiple axes as it travels down the lane. Think of it as adding a layer of controlled turbulence to the ball’s motion, keeping it energized even after it starts to roll.

What Does This Mean for You?

For the bowler, this unique motion translates to one simple thing: stronger continuation and better pin carry.

• More Torque Through the Hook Phase: The alternating ellipses create extra torque as the ball transitions from the skid phase to the hook phase. This keeps the ball’s motion dynamic, helping it maintain energy as it approaches the pins.
• Avoiding the "Forward Roll" Trap: Unlike traditional asymmetric designs that often lose their tilt and roll forward in the final stages, the Origin keeps shaping through the pins. This added motion means fewer flat 10-pins and more strikes.
  • What do we mean by “the ball keeps shaping”? The ball maintains its angular motion (hooking or curving) even after it enters the roll phase and makes contact with the pins. In simpler terms, the ball doesn’t just roll forward in a straight line once it hooks; it continues to curve or arc as it drives through the pin deck. Traditional cores sometimes “roll out,” meaning they lose their hook potential and energy, leading to flat hits or weak pin carry. The Ellipse core with its processional PSA keeps shaping and retains energy through the pins.
• Consistency Across Different Styles: Whether you’re a high-rev player or someone with a straighter shot, this design adapts to create continuous motion down the lane, ensuring you get the most out of every throw.

What Bowlers Are Saying

In testing, professional and amateur bowlers alike have noted how different the Origin feels compared to other balls. Many describe it as a ball that “keeps hooking” even when it looks like it should roll forward. That added movement through the pins helps maximize your strike potential, even on challenging lane conditions.

Why You Should Try the Origin

If you’re looking for a bowling ball that stands out in performance and technology, the Origin is the one to try. Its dual procession design offers something truly unique in the sport: a ball that doesn’t quit. It powers through the pins with a continuation that’s hard to put into words but impossible to ignore. Experience the difference for yourself and see how the Origin’s revolutionary Ellipse core can take your game to the next level.
