- Description: The Diamondback is the first ball with Activator Solid coverstock available at the Advanced Performance price point. The original Activator coverstock used on the Diamondback is a proven formula that provides strong downlane recovery, longevity of ball reaction, and unprecedented durability with superior resistance to cracking. The Diamondback uses the proven Brunswick multi-sided Rocket™ core system, providing a low RG core that when combined with the original Activator coverstock produces a ball reaction that is unmatched at the Advanced Performance price point. Clean through the front with an aggressive move at the breakpoint, the Diamondback gives amazing bang for the buck. There isn’t another ball in this class that’s even close. With its 2,000 Siaair Micro Pad finish, the Diamondback will provide good length with a strong continuous backend reaction that matches up on medium to oily lane conditions for a wide range of bowling styles.

Great Ball By Sharpie from St. Joseph, MO
Reviewed on: 8/12/2010 Verified Reviewer Pros:Flawless Surface, Great Weight, Attractive Design, Comfortable Grip Best Uses:Anywhere and Everywhere Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend I love this ball. I started a league and my older ball was not working for me. I bought this ball and saw my average go up almost 50 pins in 10 weeks. It has a very strong back end and hits the pocket very hard.
