The Brick gives bowlers with lower rev rates a ball to use on heavier volumes of oil. The strong reaction to the dry is ideal for those looking for extra hook. When we saw that the cover of this ball was the same as the Taboos, we wondered how different the reaction would be. The slight difference of RG and differential combined with the hybrid version of this coverstock really make this ball react a little less than the Taboos.

All three testers preferred this ball on our heavy oil test pattern. The extra oil in the heads allowed the Brick to read the midlane more strongly. Both Stroker and Tweener
