- Big Bro Flexin

First Impressions
The SWAG Big Bro Flexin presents itself as an exceptionally strong solid ball developed specifically for challenging heavy oil conditions. Swag is establishing itself as a new ball company with a fresh vision for producing performance equipment for today's lane conditions. The ball features the asymmetric Dominance Core with an RG of 2.472 at 16 pounds and a differential of 0.052. According to the manufacturer, the Elastic-E inner material should provide roughly 30% more drive compared to many balls on the market thanks to its highly elastic composition. The ball originally came to market with a 3000 grit surface and is now available as a discontinued model.
Comparison
Visually, the Big Bro Flexin bears a strong resemblance to the Storm Crux Prime, but it differs clearly in its ball motion. One user describes it as slightly less strong than the Incredible in overall lane coverage, but as a step up from the Swagger in backend finish. In combination with the regular Big Bro in particular, the Flexin works as a strong complement on long oily patterns when the Big Bro runs too long. The Flexin version shows a stronger response to friction and accordingly needs more oil to keep its ball motion under control.
On the Lanes
The Big Bro Flexin should deliver a generous arc and offer impressive control and precision for players looking for increased performance. This ball loves to flex its muscles and needs oil to tame the reaction, since it responds to friction very quickly. Users report a surprisingly angular reaction and incredible carry when the ball has the oil it needs. One bowler describes it as probably one of the strongest and hardest-hitting balls ever made. The ball is primarily suited to players with medium to higher rev rates on heavy oil conditions, though with a surface adjustment to 4000 grit it can also be played on medium oil volumes, especially once the boards start to open up.
