- Description: Wild Ride ConneXion!! The Wild Ride introduces ConneXion™, the new coverstock by Brunswick, that provides the wildest response at the break point ever seen in a Brunswick ball.
Core
The Wild Ride migrates the proven medium RG Torsion Asymmetric core into the High Performance price point. This core/coverstock combination allows the Wild Ride to skid easily through the front part of the lane, dig in aggressively at the end of the mid-lane, then stick strong to to the back-end providing powerful traction hooking action off the break point. The ConneXion coverstock united with the familiar Torsion Asymmetric core provides a ride that is unbelievably wild.
Coverstock
Eighteen months in development, the new ConneXion coverstock has been fine-tuned to adhere to the lane providing unbelievable traction response from foul line to head pin. The Wild Ride pushes easily through the heads, staying on line to target on both light and heavy oil conditions; both when the lanes are freshly oiled or when they've broken down. The wild side of the ConneXion coverstock comes alive when the ball reaches the end of the oil pattern and then aggressively connects to the back-ends. The traction created provides a strong recoil reaction to the pocket that results in the most angular skid-snap reaction ever produced in a Brunswick ball. The aggressive connection of the Wild Ride to the lane surface inspires the confidence in the ball reaction that allows bowlers to play the lanes the way they want to.

A thing of Beauty! By Ryan from Collierville
Reviewed on: 4/27/2010 Unverified Pros:Crushes the pocket, Usable on many surfaces, Beautiful Roll Best Uses:Med-Dry to Med-Oily Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend I got this ball about five or six months ago, had it drilled so that the pin was about 1/2" above of the ring finger. This ball can be straightened out pretty easily on the dry spots, and it's great for medium oily lanes that need just a lil more on the ball. I average about 205 with this ball on a house shot.
