The Eruption features the same low RG, medium Differential Resurgence core that has been a part of the successful Burst and Outburst this past season and even more historically for Columbia 300, it was the engine of the extremely successful Resurgence. We’ve wrapped the Resurgence core in a new variation of the New Era veneer that was also popular on the Resurgence and Burst, it’s called New Era Skid Flip. We started with the same base material, however, the pearl additive we used causes the ball to skid further and recover harder down lane. While this cover is weaker in oil, it is quite aggressive when it sees friction and really compliments the low RG Resurgence core. We’re pouring New Era Skid Flip in a combination of two gorgeous colors, Electric Blue and Ultra Violet with bright green logos.The finishing preparation for the Eruption is a four stage process including our factory polish. We start with 800 Grit Abranet, followed by one stage of 1000 Abralon and a stage at 2000 Abralon. Leaving the ball at 2000 grit before polishing it makes the ball smooth enough to easily clear the front part of the lane and the texture under the polish helps it to not hydroplane through the hook spot and produce fantastic back end. Color: Electric Blue/Ultra Violet Core: Resurgence Symmetric Veneer: New Era Skid Flip Surface: 800 Abranet, 1000, 2000 Abralon, Factory Polish RG: 2.47 Diff: .035 Recommended Lane Condition: Medium-Medium Dry Oil Worldwide Release Date: June 23, 2011

Comments about Columbia 300 Bowling Products Columbia Eruption Bowling Ball:
I bowl in League play, and average 175-180. I am left handed and have always had a strong power hook, without cranking the ball. I am now a senior, but still bowl with the "kids". This ball reacts very well, especially on the backside. The Eruption is definitely NOT for drier or medium lanes. I turn the ball too much as I was running deep into the pocket. It will take time to master my shot with this reactive ball. I now loft this ball at least 20-25 feet in the oil and it still "snaps" hard.
